I think the XT6 is built on the same platform as the Chevy Traverse, Buick Enclave, and GMC Acadia.

Nice car. Could never bring myself to own a GM myself though.

I've owned more Toyotas than I can remember. I was hooked on Toyotas until 2017. Toyota clearly builds the most reliable car on the planet for the long term.

When I was interested in my first small SUV, I drove everything on the market, and with some apprehension finally broke away from Toyota and chose a 2017 Buick Encore (Opel platform built in Korea), and that car quickly became my favourite car of all time! The build, fit and finish, comfort, and paint quality put Toyota to shame.

I've since had a 2018, 2019, and now 2021 GM product, and I have no complaints whatsoever. Of course, I can't attest to long term reliability, but that is of no concern since I only keep a car for about 2 years now. At this point, I don't see myself ever driving a Toyota again; there just isn't enough to like in the short term.

more pics please!

Yup. I haven't used the big control knob yet, but the BMW style shifter shouldn't exist.

Yep, great time to sell ... bad time to buy!

That pic with the floating roof design makes it look really long.

^^^ Yup. Great time to sell! And... I actually got an excellent deal on the new car. With discount and rebates, about $2750 off MSRP. No markups. Happy.

Yeah, previous owner seems pretty obsessed about getting that M-designation seen on this non-M-car.

Sweet!

Almost exactly the same 0-60 time as my Volvo C40.

That'd be a cool drag race!
