Took delivery this past Monday (Factory Order): 3 rows of seats, 3.6 L VVT DI (Direct Injection) engine. One model up from the base; just a few options additional to this 1LT: -AWD -towing package -remote starter -rear camera system (displays in rear view mirror) Colour is known as "Gold Mist" It is nice having a new vehicle isnt it? I am so hoping that GM has got it right with this platform  Krown Rust to be applied in the next couple of weeks. I have learned and continue to learn much from this forum. Many of you are so helpful. Thanks for your patience.

Congrats, I hope it gives you many thousands of trouble free miles.
I had thought you weren't able to get the "Gold Mist". When did you find out your first colour choice was available? |

Wow! I am impressed that you remember my story.  Well with a little prodding the Spring Hill plant was able to sneak one more Gold Mist into production. I was impressed. |

Looks good!  Be interested in how that direct injection engine is for you. Supposed to be the cat's a**. |

That is one reason why we decided against an 08 Acadia/Outlook. |

New car smell.. With stinky teenage boys that new car smell quickly dissipates  . That reminds me I should pick up a couple of cans of Scotchguard (already I see Big Mac lettuce droppings  on the seats) |

The first Traverse I ever saw ran a red light and almost took me out of commission. Let's hope you drive yours more carefully  Looks great, I really like the front end design |
