Some of the changes are not mentioned in the New For 2007 section of the ordering guide. You have to look in the Standard Equipment section and other places. Like the axle ratio has changes on the both the Equinox and the Torrent to 2.48. I'm sure that goes for all of the GM models.

Did the previous 'Nox have navigation? If not, that's a nice addition but it is a shame the interior is not upgraded in any way. Front/rear discs are a nice addition, too. Are side airbags standard?

What about the 'Rent's three-spoke steering wheel?

[ToniCipriani]

It's possible that it's getting the Tahoe's or the Malibu's...

Makes more sense if you ask me.

True, since its Theta cousin's Grand Vitara and S3X have it.

What!!!! They are still using that pathetic China 3400, now with a lower axle to reduce performance! Boy Chevy really got boned for 07 changes save the new Silverado/Tahoe.

this vehicle badly needs the new 3.5, 3.6, or 3.9

I drove one this weekend and found it to be a capable and comfortable little truck. My wife likes it and found it to be quite a bit faster than she thought it was going to be. Funny, the biggest complaint that I keep hearing about was the steering - which was just fine for me.

Power wise - the 3.4 may be an old tech engine to some of you, but the engine was quiet and it moved out o.k. for a grocery getter. I would like to have the nav system that the '07 will have, but other than that, I saw no reason to wait...plus the deal coming out tomorrow on the Equis will be stellar according to my dealer.

The Equi beat out the HHR for my wife's new car. I still wanted her to look at the Torrent - but she hates pontiacs...I don't get her some times.

Its getting the Tahoes steering wheel i saw a spy pick of the outside and interior with the new steering wheel as wellas dual exhuast.

Gotta love the new GM parts bin radio/hvac. I think there needs to be a little more variety other then the one going in the equinox and every new GM vehicle, the older style radio seen in the Cobalt, Malibu/G6, Vette, and the cadillac unit.
