GM-TC Reviews: GMC Envoy XL w/5.3L

[Zane]

Well, plans change, and instead of the Hummer H2 we recieved an Envoy XL with the optional 5.3L V8 engine this afternoon. Not exactly a slouch, i can already tell this week with the Envoy will be fun.  :thumb:

 

The suggestion line is NOW OPEN! What do you want to know about the 2003 GMC Envoy XL?

 

The weather was good this evening so here's a few pics to whet your mouth...

Is it possible to park it next to a Suburban and compare length?

How does it do in the deer crash test ??

In NH you gotta do the moose test.

How does it compare with the 5.3L in a Silverado?? Stronger, weaker?? How much leg room is there if your not setting up front?

Your right. And #### does this thing MOVE!      :thumb:

 

The engine has 5 more hp than in the Silverado (290 vs 285).

Having a V8 in such a small SUV rocks. The sound, the acceleration. its just divine.

    I hope this engine is a little appetizer for what's coming for all the Vortec V8 truck engines!!  :thumb:
