Checked out several SUV's and there was never enough leg room for mom who enjoys sitting in back with the 3 year old. The Chevy Equinox was the only one with enough leg room for her, especially when I'm driving. I'm 6 feet tall and usually have the seat set pretty far back.
I wanted a car that would haul light duty and seat 4 adults comfortably. It also had to get good gas mileage and be reliable. This vehicle does all that I ask of it and with no fuss. The car is quick to start making heat usually just a couple of minutes to get some heat. It is a good size as in it is easy to drive and to park, but still can easily haul groceries, Christmas presents, water softener salt. I like that the hatch has room for me to stand under without hitting my head, and provides a rain shield while loading the car.
Was use to a smaller car, a Kia Rondo. This car is larger but very well equipped; can't compete with the old Kia. Took time to get use to the larger size. Love the dash layout and the back-up camera. The seats are very comfortable and adjustable. With more time I am sure the old car will be forgotten and this car will be my new favorite. Take one for a test drive and see how it fits you!
