Ride smoothness: Very smooth, even over rough roads

Reliability & durability: Have owned two Enclaves now and no major problem in 46,000 miles total.

Exterior styling: Large vehicle that doesn't look that large. Aerodynamic styling smooth flowing lines Nothing else quite so elegant on the road in this size. Nice optional wheels so don't have to buy aftermarket

Quietness: Again this is a strength as is very quiet on the interior.

Reliability & durability: ONly problem I've had in 62,000 miles is the intermitant airbag light comes on.

Rear seat room & comfort: Nothing and is a strength. My golfing buddies love to ride with me.

Materials & workmanship: for the money the nicest looking and richest interior in the field.

Quietness: In a vehicle with so much going on the quietness is commendable. Little outside noise intrudes into the passenger compartment.

Exterior styling: One of if not the best looking crossover vehicles out there today

Powertrain performance: smooth and quiet with reasonable fuel mileage

Ride smoothness: smooth ride with confidant handling

Exterior styling: clunky looking, more trucklike

Quietness: fine around town, Awful on the highway. It vibrates and the passenger cabin is loud. I think this vehicle needs more developement in the NVH area. Hondas noise cancelling technology doesn't impress me.

Control design: Too many buttons on the center stack with a confusing layout.

Powertrain performance: Not very smooth. Works hard at 70-75 MPH, fuel mileage suffers at interstste speeds

Dealership practices: Two trips to dearlership for the same problem, still not fixed.

Cargo capacity & towing: Ample room with 3rd row folded.

Brand reputation & image: Buicks, and GM, are known to be reliable.

Quietness: Blocks out most common road noise and vibration.

Exterior styling: Elegant, beautiful, smooth, stylish, unique, bold, timeless, American.

Powertrain performance: Fast, responsive, smooth, fun to drive.

Cargo capacity & towing: Not enough room for a family of 4 to travel on a trip.

Rear seat room & comfort: Entry and exit a little difficult, not much room with a child car seat installed.

Front seat comfort: Passenger seat not comfortable on long trips, without the optional power seat.

Handling: Pulls to the right. Has, since new.

Powertrain performance: Has a little hesitation when during full throttle starts.

Exterior styling: Smooth, flowing lines. Not straight and boxy like most vans.

Interior styling: Luxurious and spacious. Well-appointed.

Quietness: Very quiet...isolates road and wind noise very well.

Exterior styling: Body panels are too straight - no character.

Exterior styling: Enclave had all the features of the Mercedes, for $20M less with better overall fuel economy.

Fuel economy: Honest 23 mpg on the freeway.

Ride smoothness: Smooths out bumps but handles well.

Quietness: Quieter than the Mercedes. Quietest vehicle on the road.

Fuel economy: Even the diesel isn't that great in town and it now cost $4/gal.

Color choices: I fell in love with Cinnimon Metallic. I believe they have a strong line of color choices available.

Available features: It would be easier telling you what I don't like then it would to tell you about what I like. Basically... bumper to bumper - it is easy to fall in love with the Flex.

Price or payments: I feel that this is a decent vehcile for the cost.

Exterior styling: The Flex is a unique vehicle in it's styling escaping from the cookie-cutter styles that are commonly seen today.

Fuel economy: I am currently averaging 20 MPG overall with heavy highway use. For the size of vehicle I think that is rather reasonable.

Price or payments: The price seemed a bit high, however, this is a top notch vehicle.

Exterior styling: The exterior seemed cookie-cutter to me. Don't get me wrong, the attention to detail was there, however, the same basic styling is used on many other models.

Exterior styling: everything

Interior styling: Everything

Handling: Peppy drive train

Reliability & durability: first nisson,but son has altima and no problems yet.( 3 yrs old)

Materials & workmanship: everything

Reliability & durability: G.M. reputation

Price or payments: 5 - 7 thousand more then murano

Fuel economy: Fuel economy is good for suv this size.( As big as Tahoe )

Brand reputation & image: G.M. has problems with all vehicles

Materials & workmanship: Cost- to exspenive for same or better in murano

Cargo capacity & towing: Lot's of room for stuff behind the third row, larger usable space interior with seats down/out.

Available features: The Touring model is loaded with darn near anything I'd want in a vehicle. The Voice Nav, bluetooth, power doors, memory seating, all were well implemented. It's an Acura of Minivans.

Materials & workmanship: Very nice interior, well placed controls, good fit and finish. Small details done well throughout.

Reliability & durability: Based on friend's experiences and Honda in general, is a dependable vehicle.

Rear seat room & comfort: I'm going to be having a family of SEVEN soon, and needed the most space with ease of entry and cargo behind the third row. The Odyssey wins this contest hand's down.

Reliability & durability: My past GM experience hasn't been all that good. Reading long-term ownership experiences in common blogs identify some major mechanical problems I wouldn't expect in a new vehicle.

Price or payments: Price was higher than the van, mostly I believe due to higher demand for crossovers than vans.

Fuel economy: It's lower, but not drastically out of character. The tranny seems to be a weak point, providing adequate mileage for sub-par performance.

Insurance & depreciation: Don't know of any GM vehicle that does well in depreciation. Insurance costs also higher.

Cargo capacity & towing: I love the way the hitch receiver is out of sight until needed, and the hidden rear compartment is a great place to stow the hitch. As much cargo space as much larger SUV and you can really get 7 people in this vehicle.

Available features: It has every feature you could want.

Exterior styling: Great lines, everything looks like it belongs, lines connect well from all angles, nothing out of place.

Interior styling: Classy, nothing tacky, great lines, well postioned controls.

Cargo capacity & towing: With seats folded flat there is not too much you cannot load in the vehicle. With seats up, comfortable seating for 7 real-sized adults. Well thought out.

Exterior styling: Smooth attractive aerodynamic shape suggesting power and sophistication. Definitely does not resemble older "stodgy" Buick styling yet gives a sense of quality.

Powertrain performance: Rapid response of the Direct Injection engine without the "buzzy feel" of most large V-6 engines and the weird vibration their 120 degree timing gives the driver.

Fuel economy: More than reasonable for a 5000 lb vehicle. Benefits of aero design ( for an SUV ) and six speed transmission both contribute.

Ride smoothness: Independent Rear Suspension makes it ride like a car not a truck.

Powertrain performance: Smooth acceleration, plenty of reserve power

Cargo capacity & towing: Minivan-comparable without the stigma

Quietness: Easily THE quietest care I've ever owned

Ride smoothness: Luxurious

Fuel economy: Well under (15-20%) below the EPA ratings, though the engine is STILL brand new (<400 miles total).

Ride smoothness: Very comfortable and smooth for drivers and passengers. Feel this is the best in this class.

Quietness: Very quiet ride. Again, feel this is the best in the class.

Cargo capacity & towing: Very roomy, ample cargo room. All this with equal or better fuel economy compared to competition.

Price or payments: Feature to feature you can't beat the Enclave in terms of price/value ratio especiallywith incentives.

Driving position & visibility: Poor visibility from rear window. The small cleaning area of rear window wiper makes it even worse. A negative for winter weather in Northern climes.

Audio & nav systems: The audio reproduction from Bose system is poor, lacks crispness and bass. Highly overrated system; feel it should be a lot better for a vehicle of this class. The Nav system is sometimes inaccurate, clumsy interface.

Available features: Rear window and the wiper/washer more form over fnction. Inadequate for winter weather in northern climes. Wiper cycles before fluid sprayed on glass, wiper has single speed, cleans a very small area. No heated rear seats, rain sense wipers, power pedals
