Mirage52 Posted February 11, 2014 Report Share Posted February 11, 2014 Since I bought my Edge I've been noticing a lot about the cars I see on the road...noticing more Edges, more of the SUV's I test drove, and so on. One thing that I have noticed in the last month and a half is a lot of Chevy Traverses on the road. Anyone else seeing them a lot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted February 11, 2014 Report Share Posted February 11, 2014 Have seen many more Edge's recently, not really any Traverse's in my immediate area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat8839 Posted March 13, 2014 Report Share Posted March 13, 2014 There are loads of Traverse's on the road here. Not as many GMC Terrains though (the sister vehicle to the Traverse which I think looks cooler). I had thought I would see more Jeep Cherokee's but I have only seen a handful. I was leaning toward the Cherokee but with all of the issues delaying its release I went with the Edge and I love it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does not have a third row seat, neither does the Terrain. The Traverse is a large vehicle with a large third row, seating for 7 or 8 depending on how you option it out. The Buick Enclave, GMC Acadia, and the Saturn Outlook are the Traverse's sister cars. The Ford equivalent would be the Flex or Explorer, with the Flex being larger than the Explorer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat8839 Posted March 14, 2014 Report Share Posted March 14, 2014 haha you're totally right!! I got them mixed up with my friend's car...sorry I'm a moron... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ls973800 Posted March 14, 2014 Report Share Posted March 14, 2014 No, not a moron. There are so many cars that overlap each other size wise, feature wise, etc that you need a score card just to keep them straight! My wife had a Traverse for a few years so I was aware of that car and it's siblings, belonging to several other forums for them. What's really funny is that the transmission in the GM Traverse, etc and the Ford Edge (maybe some other models also) were a joint effort. GM has a problem of the transmission gernading itself on the earlier build years (2007-2009) because of an improper heated treated component (wave plate) that I have never heard going bad in the Fords. Yes, some Fords have the banging shift and harsh shift, but nothing leaving the vehicle dead in the water like the GM's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
