I always though it was a shame that the vehicle was so handsome but so unpleasant to drive or ride in.
The 3.4L in our Torrent sounds like crap, but it has more than enough power, decent responce and is pretty smooth. It's not that bad. I do wish the GXP and Equinox Sport's 3.6L was an option on the other models because the sport suspension is very harsh for a family car.
