    Traverse headrests are a minor but annoying failure on GMs part. Typical first year redesign problems with something that should never be a problem. The third row visibility compromise for that exterior styling choice is a bad move.

    Everytime I'm in a Ford or GMC brand I'm reminded that Asian brands lack in many aspects of a comfortable appealing performance premium formula....Took a new Ford Escape Uber home last night. Needless to say it instantly felt more powerful and performance base than the CRV or Rav4. I was so entertained with it's transmission and power delivery seamless.

    Great video, Sam. Always been a fan of the traverse as we owned one from the first gen (2017) for 6 years without any issues despite all the bad comments about it in the forums. This one is a totally new proposition from GM and looks very interesting. Not a Toyota/Honda fan, though. Will be interesting to see if the new 4IL turbo with more hp and torque than the old V6 predecesor beats it at the track. Keep the SUV content coming!
    Cheers.

    I've owned mostly Toyotas, but before one even starts comparing, I can tell you that where I live (Southwest FL), the queue for hybrid Toyota anything is so ridiculous, the whole discussion becomes academic. Unless Toyota solves their supply problems (Honda's lot is full of new Pilots), my next vehicle will not be a Toyota.

If Toyota had given it AWD it would have been the best car on the market but I understand they had to protect Lexus sales. The Venza is a great car, Corolla Cross is a great car, new Prius is a great car, Crown Signia is a great car, Tacoma is a great car, GR 86, Supra, and GR Corolla are all great cars. RAV4 to me is overrated, and the Tundra, Highlander, Sequoia, and regular Corollas are kinda lame.
