2010 Equinox

[Shaners]

Just ordered a 2010 Equinox 2LT with leather this week and wondered if anyone had one and what they thought of it after a few miles. I ordered it with the 4 cyl engine for the extra few MPG's.

 

There were several 1LT's around but no 2LT's so I decided to order what I wanted. The dealer thought it would be around Thanksgiving before I got it. I ordered the Mocha Steel metallic (which I have never seen) with the jet black/brownstone 2-tone leather.

Brian Dietz (AKA Failanater) has one and he and his wife both really like it. They haven't had it long but they are definitely fans.

 

That said, I drove a GMC Terrain in Austin a few weeks ago and got a CEL and bad misfiring with only 21 miles on the clock. That was probably just a fleet car fluke though!

 

 

Good luck, let us know what you think!

We got our 2LT AWD on Sept 17. So far it has been great. Still working on the mileage though, it appears to be getting better as it breaks in. We got the Cardinal Red with the chrome package and automatic rear liftgate. There's alot of little nice touches. When you set the cruise it tells you on the DIC what speed it is set at. Theres a setting on the radio for minimum volume, so if you turn the truck off with the radio kinda loud it always starts at the lower volume you specified in the setup. Our Cell Phones synced nicely and without problem. My wifes Ipod touch can be controlled.

You will love the Mocha/Black Brownstone color combo. I just picked up my 2010 Equinox LTZ AWD V6 this week and thats is the color combo I got. Sofar with under 200 miles on it the DIC says 19.4mpg average. You will love it, tons of cool features and the interior ambient lighting is awesome at night. If it quits raining here ill throw some pics up of it tomorrow.

I still have yet to see one in that color. They changed the name from Mocha to Magna steel metallic. Ordered it 4 weeks ago today so still have a few weeks before it gets here.

I like the new look! I tried to get my parents into one but they just didn't see it. They could have used the AWD up in Pa where they live. That is a nice color combo!

Here are my pics of our Mocha (thats what my window sticker says - Built the week of 10/12/09)

My mother recently bought it and i have driven it a little bit and didn't care for it. There is a lot of blind spots and very tight in the drivers seat. Granted i am 6'6 so it all depends on how big of a guy you are. But my mother loves it and wonders why she didnt buy one earlier.

I really like boldness of the Terrain and the Equinox looks good also. They just need a SS version

01silverado2500,

 

Thanks for the pics. That should be about what mine will look like although I didm't order the chrome package which I believe is standard on the LTZ.

Yeah the chrome package was standard on the LTZ, I was a little worried about it looking cheezy with the chrome but it looks good with it in person.

 

Just had a friend of mine who saw a Mocha one at a dealer looking at ours and he loves it, he said its a awesome color, not silver, not gray but very very sharp with the brownstone interior.

I will say I drove ours tonight for awhile and the A pillars are huge, very deep so that kinda blocks some view. The rear is kinda tough to see out of with the large C and D pillars and the rear headrests but ours has the rearview mirror back up camera and the USPA back up assist so i just watch the rear camera and listen to the beeps.

 

The seats are a little narrow for me also, but im way to use to my Sierra bucket seats taht are huge. Legroom is amazing im 6' and i cant reach the gas with the driver seat all the way back. Plenty of room in the back seat too.
