And I gotta admit, that’s the nicest looking Equinox I’ve ever seen.

Driving so no pictures, but here’s an artist’s rendition

Don’t @ me that it’s a different platform

I think Google search backfired on you, must’ve been Pinterest spam. That’s clearly a CT3 mule.

Maybe but there’s really no way to tell.

I may be a bit biased, but I think the Terrain Denali is the best looking E quinox.

Jokes aside, the XT4 I saw did look pretty decent - it was a nice shade of dark blue, and I liked the grille.

Also the XT4 isn’t really on the Equinox platform, either - which is actually very weird because it’s roughly the same size and a FWD based X-over.

Hmm, you learn something everyday. I assumed that the XT4 was built on the same D2XX platform as the Equinox/Terrain. Turns out its built on an E2XX, making it the nicest Chevy Malibu!

I’ve seen a couple but they have all be white and just didnt really do it for me. I havent seen a dark one yet, maybe I’d like it more.

I actually Googled it right before posting this, because I assumed that it was a dressed up Equinox too.

So it’s really a dressed up Malibu, yes, and more closely related to the Traverse than the Equinox.  Weird.

I test drove an XT4 and meh. There was nothing truly premium about the experience. Felt like all moving parts were made of plastic, including the engine and transmission.

It’s ridiculous. I wonder if we’ve ever had that much snow this late. Probably once or twice maybe in a century?

The one two weeks ago was supposed to be IT!

  That was pretty standard on Cadillacs of the 70s and early 80s. The filler in between the bumper and body ( to hide the ugly 5 mph bumper) was made of some cheap rubber/ plastic material that disintegrated quickly.

My grandma had a later blue one of those, they were slightly better in the later update.

Th e later ones weren’t so bad, especially with the V6.

The early 1.8 cars were dogshit though.

It must have been a later one, the body cladding looked better, exactly like this one.
