Pros: What do you like about 2006 GMC Envoy?
Engine. Interior Design. creature comforts. Long list of options.

Cons: How would you improve 2006 GMC Envoy?
Needs a stiffer frame, better fuel economy (maybe VVT).

2006 GMC Envoy Review:
Although the frame and handling are getting a bit long in the tooth when compared to the new crossovers, the strong engine, comfortable ride, and great interior add to the Envoy's blend of roominess, off-road capability, towing capability. If you need a family vehicle that can haul- it's still an excellent choice. The Denali is a bargan for what you get.

2006 GMC Envoy Review:
This is the 5th SUV that I have owned and by far the best. The ride and way it handles far outclasses any other SUV I"ve had. It's a gorgeous looking car also. So far though, I've only been getting 12 mpg and was told that I"d get 15-17. I"m not happy about that.

Cons: How would you improve 2006 GMC Envoy?
Hitch pin is hard to get at. The seats should fold flat.

2006 GMC Envoy Review:
Fun to drive in the short period I've had it. Easy to park, good vision. I wish the seat would fold flat.

Better ride

2006 GMC Envoy Review:
The drive is fair. I love the power of the 4.2 AWD. Brakes are mushy, drinks a lot of gas. The ride is so so. I had a Buick Rendezvous with a much better ride

Pros: What do you like about 2006 GMC Envoy?
My favorite features are the strong six- cylinder producing 275 horsepower, again, the styling, and (somehow) elegance.

Cons: How would you improve 2006 GMC Envoy?
Turning in corners could improve, also with the quality of materials in the cabin. Somehow, GM should add DOD (Displacment On Demand) on the 4.2 liter.

2006 GMC Envoy Review:
The Envoy is really a great SUV, but there are areas where it could improve. The engine is strong, the styling bold, and fuel enconomy bad (as with any SUV).

Pros: What do you like about 2006 GMC Envoy?
The design and look of the dash. The comfort. The 2 memory programable driver seat.

Cons: How would you improve 2006 GMC Envoy?
I wish the back seats incline backwards for comfort of a long ride. And of course, better fuel mileage.

2006 GMC Envoy Review:
I love my Envoy Denali. It not only looks great, it rides extremely smooth. I recently was involved in a car accident, a car ran a red light and smashed up my front end. My SUV spun 90 degrees and I felt completely safe. The moment I sat in the drivers seat at the dealership, I fell in love. The interior, design and looks, sold me not to mentioned the 300hp engine. I could not have ask for more in my first SUV purchase.

Pros: What do you like about 2006 GMC Envoy?
Satelite radio is very nice. Really don't use the 4 WD (the 03 was 2 WD and I really do not see the differance in ride and/or traction). Power seats are great.

Cons: How would you improve 2006 GMC Envoy?
Cheaper price and a little better gas mileage and GM would dominate the market. Driver side power seat should be standard -- You MUST have power driver side power seats -- my 03 did not and there was no way to get the seating position right.

2006 GMC Envoy Review:
My new 2006 Envoy replaces my 2003 Envoy which just come off lease. I never took the 2003 back to the dealership for ANY type of repair. The styling is great and the ride is very comfortable. I drive 99% on open roads and want a vehicle that rides smoothly, which the Envoy does. I also own a 2005 Corvette (I know - a bragger) but I just want to say I often use the Envoy because it's just easier and more relaxing to drive. GM might go Chapter 11, but they are making very good cars!
