The GMC Acadia proved its worth during a snowstorm, and overall impressed Peter Bleakney with its utility and drivability.

Peter,
You allude to the Acadia being a handful when parking, but nothing more. How are the sight lines - being able to determine where the front and back are visually? What aids does GM provide for parking this beast? I'd also be curious how good outward visibility is towards the back. Lastly, one thing that tends to get overlooked regularly is night time visibility - how good are the headlights?
I passed your question on to Peter and he had this to say:
"Two reasons why this vehicle is a handful to park 1) it's huge 2) rear sight lines are impeded by the big D-pillars. It does have a pretty tight turning circle, but where I found it most difficult was in tight indoor parking lots. The rear view camera earned its keep."
He never had a chance to really see the headlights in a proper setting (dark, unlit roads).
