I have the similarly-sized Toyota Highlander (2008) and have towed with it for around 140,000 of its total 162,000 miles. The HL acts like it could go for another 162K. Not bad for a "car".
I imagine the Traverse and its sisters should be able to do about the same... despite the disadvantage of being GM products, lol. ;)
Zing!
Just think how many of this vehicle they would be selling if they still had Oldsmobile, Pontiac, SAAB, Saturn, Hummer etc. to prostitute the platform with badge engineering.
What's wrong with badge engineering ? Back in the 1960's my uncle and dad bought a new 1968 Mercury M 250 as their shop truck.
It was exactly the same as a '68 Ford F 250 and both would do the job.
It didn't matter whether it had a Mercury or Ford nameplate. It was a great truck...even though you might dismiss our old Merc, because it was badge engineered.
I don't understand your concern.
What made you think I was concerned about badge engineering? I was simply longing for those 'great' brands of yester year....
But I suppose you do have a point, if all those badge engineered vehicles were so great, why aren't they still around? Mercury, Plymouth, oldsmobile, Pontiac, Saab, etc. have all gone the way of the dodo bird.
