I wanted to feel the man-machine connection, but after a week of
testing the Traverse, I can honestly say that I may love it, but
I'm not in love with it. It's not the Traverse's fault, it's mine.
Really, it's a great family hauler and beats the hubcaps off a
minivan. There's room for eight with its three rows of seating. It
has plenty of power and matches up well against serious competition
like the Honda Pilot and Toyota Highlander. But I feel the same way
about those vehicles as I do about the Traverse: very little.
Big hulking vehicles just aren't my favorite things on the road --
not even these toned-down crossovers that have replaced sport
utility... //
