I have heard (and read) good things about the Toyota. I went to the dealer expecting the van to feel cramped, overpriced and dealer unwilling to negotiate. The last time I looked at Toyota (20 years ago) a dealer asked how much over retail I would pay. see full Toyota Sienna review |

I never really liked (or disliked) the previous generation Equinox...and it took several test drives versus the competition, and many online owner reviews to convince me that the "new GM" really was new.. see full Chevrolet Equinox review |

I have always been a GM fan. If this Equinox had been my first, I would never have bought another GM vehicle. I have had several Tahoes and Suburbans. All were excellent vehicles. see full Chevrolet Equinox review |
