We haven't even had it a week yet and she's already refinanced it for a lower rate of %4.7, we're now down to $302/month for 60 months.

I noticed last night that one of the headlights have burned out. From what I can tell it's a fairly quick and easy job, no tools required. Remove the plastic cowling and access is gained from behind the headlamps.

nice purchase bobby. the acadia is nice. the 3.6 has some great power, thats whats in my 08 torrent gxp. if i decide to trade it in, my wife wants either a gmc terain or a ford edge. which ever we get a better deal on. unless she lets me get a truck lol. which either be a 2011 gmc sierra with the 6.2 or a 2011 ford f-150 with the new 5.0. so have to see which way she wants to go.

Sharp lookin ride Bobby...I've looked at those at the car shows several times. I like the styling of the Acadia better than its sister ships, and I'd take one of those over a Tahoe anyday.

I think this 3.6 is going to prove to be a workhorse in lot of GM vehicles. Great power potential, no need for balance shaft, and Holden has been producing hi-po turbo versions for a few years now. The 60 degree engine has come long way from the old 2.8!

Very nice ride. After working night shift. Sometimes, I see van or suv have tv from backseat. It is perfect for like long road trip. Long time ago, when I was kid. I was boring as hell. I have a gameboy to play until stupid battery is dead lol Make me wish I'm that kid in 2010 instead 90's.
