Nothing crazy, just a new DD.

2017 GMC Terrain SLT









Picked it up as a Certified Pre-Owned which basically means it was thoroughly inspected, anything not right was either replaced or reconditioned, includes 2 free oil changes & tire rotations, and includes a longer warranty than brand new (6/100 powertrain).

I have a little over 800 miles on it so far and am very happy with it. I averaged 28.4 MPG on a 650 mile roadtrip to San Antonio and back last weekend, and I seem to be averaging around 26 for the daily commute.

I have some various LED bulbs and a K&N air filter coming for it, but other than that, no need to touch a thing for at least a year once my free dealer services are used up.

Nice, looks good and looks clean, can't imagine it has too many miles on her.

Re: Nothing crazy, just a new DD.

30k miles. Built June 2016, leased July 2016, turned in December 2017. All with this same dealer that certified it and sold it to me. Carfax is clean and the maintenance records showed oil changes & tire rotations at this dealership as well.

Needs more chrome, a trailer hitch to hang some trucknutz from, a lift kit, and some mudders!

Re: Nothing crazy, just a new DD.

After talking with my insurance agent again yesterday we made a few adjustments to the policy and it's now $10 less per 6 months than it was with the Cruze! Just seems so bizarre considering the vehicle values, etc.

Re: Nothing crazy, just a new DD.

Looks nice! Should swap on some cooler wheels though! Are those the stockers?

Yup, stock 18" wheels; I'm not a huge fan of them either. Maybe I'll browse Craigslist occasionally for the chrome Denali wheels or the black Nightfall package wheels.

Re: Nothing crazy, just a new DD.

Full LED interior light bulb swap is done. Huge difference in how it looks, plus they dim and fade off like stock. Philips T10 194 LED bulbs; same that I used in the Corvette and Volt cargo area and license plate.

Re: Nothing crazy, just a new DD.

LED interior conversion pics (pics taken in a dark garage without flash), and no more chrome dealer badge!

Since I didn't take any before/after pics of the LEDs, here is a comparison from the Corvette replacing regular interior bulbs in the C7's trunk vs. these same LEDs.
