Chevy Equinox

The GMC Terrain and Chevrolet Equinox twins have been hot sellers since they went on sale in 2009, but even with strong sales, it's still somewhat surprising to hear that the millionth crossover underpinned by the latest Theta platform has already rolled off the assembly line. According to General Motors, a silver 2013 GMC Terrain has just become the ...

According to the Toronto Sun, General Motors will be shutting down one of the lines at its Oshawa plant, putting 2,000 workers out of a job.

Bordering on premium Forty grand for a compact SUV? Sure, that's ok if we're talking premium brands, like Audi and BMW, but a Chevy? And my Equinox LTZ tester wasn't even loaded. It's just that I was moving over from the RAV4 Limited I'd been testing the week before, and the Toyota's $36k window sticker was already steep enough. Then again, I like ...

It's fitting that General Motors has a vehicle named after an astronomical phenomenon that marks the seasons. The first Equinox came from the "old" GM during the autumn of its long slide.
