Not disappointed
For starters, I'm a Chevy girl. This is my 3rd chevy vehicle. (04 Trailblazer, 2016 Equinox and now 2023 Traverse). I opted for the RS trim as I originally was looking for a Tahoe but they are selling fast in my area. I am not disappointed and honestly this is the highest trim I have ever had in a car, so to me it is luxurious. I have a blended family of 6 total, 4 kids ages 4 months to 21 years old. This SUV fits all of us comfortably with the captain seats in the 2nd row. A few things I've had to get use to are, the V6. The Equinox in comparison is much slower at gaining speed. The braking takes a bit longer as it's a bit bigger and the steering feels much looser than the Equinox. The infotainment center connects directly to my phone and I can display my maps instead of using OnStar. The trim upgrade, interior and exterior, is worth the few extra $$$. The trunk space is what I was most concerned about, but there is an additional compartment under the back floor between the spare tire. Overall, it's been very easy to get use to and discover all the features that are offered.

Solid Midsize SUV
Don't care about YouTube (mostly paid) bloggers reviews. This is a solid car. I have owned several vehicles and spent 1 month comparing the 2023 Traverse (even approaching its end of life, same generation since 2018) versus Nissan Pathfinder, Honda Pilot and Ford Explorer. Hyped Koreans, KIA and Hyundai, were just not options for me. Traverse won in terms of space, engine (310 hp) and a great cost / benefit for base trims. Media could be bigger, but Japanese new models also have only 7 or 8" LED displays. Worth mentioning Honda and Nissan have drastically reduced the quality of components, especially for base trims (eg: tires are cheaper Kumhos on Nissan's S Pathfinder). Bought it for my wife and kids as a family hauler. Low depreciation, affordable maintenance. Overall, very satisfied with the car.

We’re back!
We had an 2018 Traverse and really enjoyed it. After life happened and we got rid of it we always had our hearts on getting another one. Thanks be to GOD that we were able to come to where we are. We weighed our options and returned to the Traverse. I’m so happy we did. They did a few modifications and improved it greatly (giving me the option to shut off AUTOMATIC SHUTOFF). Our side hustle is delivering so this really gives a greater opportunity. Another plus is when the grandchildren visit we aren’t cramped. Upper midsize SUVs like the Traverse are affordable and functional for all your needs.

Great for a family of 5
Unless you are willing and capable of purchasing an Expedition , or Suburban / Yukon there is no comparison. You can comfortably fit 6 adults in a traverse and still have room for groceries behind the third row. Try doing that with a highlander, explorer or Pilot. The engine / transmission pairing could not be any better. The transmission shifts like butter and the engine has plenty of power. It’s down right fast. I thought for sure I was going to purchase an explorer. But after driving the two there is no way I would even consider an explorer. The turbo engines potential maintenance issues scare me and the 10 speed transmission is horrible. Yes the traverses interior quality could be better. But that true with all GM products…. Including their $100,000 Cadillacs.

One big SUV
I needed a 3 Row vehicle to take my grandkids around. I reluctantly traded my F150 of 10 years. I’m 400 miles in and honestly very happy with my choice It’s BIG inside. Easier to get in and out of. Child Car seats are so much more accessible. Heated seats are on automatically and the quiet is such a difference I cannot explain. My main selling point besides the better price compared to the other 3 row cars was the excellent V6. Tried and true. Powerful and smooth. I skipped the leather and sunroof saving Thousands. The view from the rear window is a little small for my liking but I drove a truck for 10 years so… $10,000 less than comparable SUVs was also a big motivation for me. The amenities, ride, features are all similar to others. The extra room and lower price are making this purchase much more enjoyable.
