2008 GMC Envoy User Reviews

Pros

Style, comfort, dependablity

Cons

none

I love this suv. I hate that gm will stop making it in 2009. But when driving this vehicle it is a very smooth ride. When I wide over pot holes I cant even notice that I had driven over a pot hole because of the smooth ride. I love the xm radio and the onstar feature. VERY VERY realiabe

Pros

Comfort, OnStar, drives/rides very well and it's a GMC for goodness sake

Cons

none

The seats in this car are so very comfortable, just like sitting in your favorite recliner at home, of course the seats do not recline but you get my drift. For an SUV I think $75 to fill up is not bad, of course it is not the Denali, but at 16 miles to the gallon, there is room for improvement BUT I was aware when I made the purchase and I decided to buy anyway. I am very pleased with the purchase of my 2008 Envoy and when I decide to trade, it will definately be a GMC! This is actually my first GMC but it will definately not be my last. I love it! The perfect family car!...read morehide

Pros

Comfort and style

Cons

gas mileage

This is my second one. I traded in my 2004 Envoy and bought a 2008 when shopping for a new car. I drove lots of cars and SUV's and simply can't find anything I like better.

Pros

Room, comfort, best SUV I've had, just past 95K miles

Cons

roof racks inferior you need thule additions, gas mileage and brakes

I've had troopers, Explorers and Grand Cherokees, the Envoy is head and shoulders above them. Size is perfect I don't want the 7 seat capacity but I like the room. Brakes seem to wear out often, on my 3rd disc/rotor replacement but other than that no issues, except the roof racks do not suppor the weight the manual claimes. You must get Thule racks. Wife loves the Envoy preferring it to her Volvo. Getting ready to replace and only the gas mileage is holding me back, never better than 18....read morehide

Pros

60% better fuel economy than the Expedition I sold

Cons

Sometimes jumps forward when stopped

Love everything about this vehicle. Third SUV I have owned. Ride is great. Mileage is good for a powerful V8. Size is right and very stylish. Would buy it again. No problems pulling anything I look behind it.

Pros

Great Look! Great Family SUV!

Cons

Could be better on gas

I love this SUV! Best buy I have ever made. I got a good deal on it I was looking for a 8 passenger vehicle and I was going ether with this or the Trailblazer the brother of Envoy and I loved the look a lot better I am so happy with my choice. I would recommed this vehicle to anybody. Mine came with a after market DVD and running boreds to so recommed those for the kids. Very quite truck. Does very well in snow, rain, mudd and on hills. So if you would like to get a van or suv. Get the SUV the Envoy! LOVE IT!...read morehide

Pros

Excellent, plain and simple!

Cons

Can not find any Cons

I previously owned a 2004 Buick Rainer for 4 years, the 2008 Envoy Denali is better , more comfortable, easier to drive with a more responsive 5.3 V8 engine.

I enjoyed the Rainer, but I am impressed with the 2008 Envoy Denali.

This is my second GM product in 35 years of owning vehicles.

Pros

Roomy, attractive interior, leather, V8, styling, auto 4WD.

Cons

Fuel economy, but hey it is a V8.

I find the truck very confident and predictable to drive. The handling is much better than expected, and has a tight turning radius.

Fantastic acceleration with the V8, and it sound good too.

Overall, a great truck for the price!

Pros

Comfort,heated seats, awd

Cons

gas mileage

I have owned a 2005 SRX and I love this car so much more. The ride is smoother, the seats are more comfortable and the value overall is better than the Cadallic.

Pros

excellent fuel mileage ! comfort is top !

Cons

rear wiper plastic cracks off ! door piller plastic covers peal off

I got a very good deal buying this car at the local dealership, big GMC
discount off the sticker price , then AAA discount and other discounts
salesman worked with me and we got the price down just below fleet price ! super deal !! the suv is 2wd and drives rides like a cadillac ! smooth and soft, handles excellent , has lots of power from the inline 6cyl engine -that runs smooth and quiet ! GM perfected this driveline..
the dashboard and accessorys are easy to read and find and operate.
stereo system is top notch! vision looking out of this suv is excellent no blind spots anywhere! its a ease to drive , plus it looks like a high dollar suv, and fits in with top line bmw suvs and benz suv's easy.....read morehide
