The GMC Sierra is Equipped wih New Features for Miami Drivers
From CarAndDriver.com:
Improved Fuel Economy for Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra Pickups with 5.3-liter V-8
August 4, 2009 at 10:43 am by Jake Holmes
2010 Chevrolet Silverado XFE
For 2010, the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra are more fuel efficient thanks to some subtle changes from GM engineers. Regular trucks with the 5.3-liter V-8 climb from 14 mpg city/20 mpg highway to 15/21; the fuel-sipping XFE models earn 1 extra highway mpg, for a rating of 15/22. Figures for hybrid variants of the Silverado and Sierra are unchanged.
The changes needed for these improvements reportedly don’t affect the payload, horsepower, or tow ratings of the trucks. New shift points for the trucks’ six-speed automatic and a lower 3.08 final drive ratio, as well as variable valve timing and Active Fuel Management (which sometimes runs the V-8 on only four cylinders to save fuel) help achieve the higher numbers.
If 1 mpg doesn’t seem like a big difference, consider this: improving from 14 mpg to 15 saves about the same amount of fuel as a car that gets 40 mpg instead of 33.

More Horsepower for the New Buick Enclave
From Examiner.com
The Buick Enclave for 2009 gets more horsepower and offers a lot of room and features.
The Buick Enclave is a premium midsize crossover that shares its platform with the Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Arcadia and the Saturn Outlook. For 2009 the Enclave gets 13 more horsepower and some new features.
There are two trim levels available CX and CXL, but only one engine/transmission combination. Enclaves are either front-drive or all-wheel drive. And there is no transfer case. The Enclave gets the 3.6-liter V-6 engine which is now rated at 288 horsepower and a six-speed automatic transmission.
The combination is rated at 16 miles per gallon in the city and 22 miles per gallon the highway with all-wheel drive. The Buick SUV is tow-rated at 4500 pounds.
An available navigation system with real-time traffic updates is available for 2009 along with a wireless cell phone link, heated and cooled seats and a 110-volt inverter that is standard with all the entertainment packages.
There is even a rearview camera available and it does not require the owner to purchase the optional navigation system. The ride quality is good and the vehicle feels smooth and stable. The enclave is large and offers plenty of people and cargo room.
Prices range from $35,000 up to nearly $40,000. On our scale of one to five, four tires and a spare, the 2009 Buick Enclave SUV rates a four plus. It is expensive, but it offers a lot.
For more information on how you can purchase the Buick Enclave in the Miami area, contact Brickell Motors at 786-245-4889 or visit them online at http://www.brickellgmc.com.

Buick Enclave and GMC Acadia Now Available at your Nearest Miami GM Dealership
2010 Buick Enclave And 2010 GMC Acadia: Envoys For The New GM
By Bengt Halvorson Bengt HalvorsonBengt Halvorson August 14th, 2009
This year, even if you ignore the demise of Pontiac and the uncertain future of Saturn, and Hummer, there's already going to be a very noticeable difference at Chevrolet and GMC dealerships: the 2009 Chevrolet Trailblazer and 2009 GMC Envoy are gone, and they're not coming back for 2010. That's right; those once top-selling mid-size SUVs have seen a big decline in interest along with a slow and quiet death over the past couple of years. GM discontinued the three-row Trailblazer EXT and Envoy XL models after 2006 and all but confirmed the demise of their shorter counterparts models around that time—though they soldiered on for nearly three years. And then the Trailblazer and Envoy continued for a year or two while their replacements—the Chevrolet Traverse and GMC Acadia—had already gone on sale. Quite honestly, we won't miss those discontinued trucks much at all.
They were outclassed in nearly every respect, and were among the lowest-rated SUVs by TheCarConnection.com for 2009, with an overall score of just 6.4. Although GM had done a decent job keeping them updated with features, they were woefully behind the curve in safety and relatively noisy and unrefined inside, and they looked stuck in the '90s. Fortunately, the Traverse and Acadia, along with the Saturn Outlook and Buick Enclave that are closely related, have been excellent replacements. While they haven't sold quite as well as we would have expected, they're attractively designed, roomy, safe, and very comfortable. And surprisingly, they basically match the Envoy's towing ability.
TheCarConnection.com just posted updated Full Reviews, along with Bottom Line assessments—for the 2010 Buick Enclave and 2010 GMC Acadia, which return with no major changes. And that's just fine; according to the editors here at TheCarConnection.com, along with other reviewers and our colleagues in the automotive media. In repeated drives, these vehicles continue to impress with their low-key but luxurious styling, high-quality feel, smooth ride, and refined character. Some might wish for a little stronger acceleration, and TheCarConnection.com has noticed hesitant behavior from the six-speed automatic transmission and noted somewhat disappointing fuel economy, but the 288-horsepower, 3.6-liter direct-injection V-6 will do just fine for most families, whether with the front-wheel drive or available all-wheel drive.
Overall, we say that the curvy 2010 Buick Enclave takes on the 2010 Lexus RX 350, yet provides a luxurious, uniquely American interior while the slightly more traditional-looking 2010 GMC Acadia is equally attractive in its own right and strikes a much better balance overall when compared to full-size SUVs. In both cases, these vehicles have spacious seven-passenger seating. Most noteworthy on these models for 2010 are new wheel designs—including newly optional 20-inch chrome wheels on the Acadia, and on both models a new USB port that interfaces with personal media players and charges them. Prices have stayed virtually the same at the entry level for both the 2010 GMC Acadia and 2010 Buick Enclave, while their top-of-the-line SLT2 and CXL models have risen steeply but gained more standard equipment.

Practicality Meets SUV in Miami: The 2009 Yukon Hybrid
The 2009 GMC Yukon proves to be an amazing piece of machinery with its 21-mpg fuel economy and its ability to maintain a standard SUV’s towing capacity. Especially with the high price of gas in Miami these days, a fuel-efficient car is the option many Miami drivers are going with.
The 2009 GMC Yukon Hybrid is a full-size SUV that is available in one trim level. Some standard equipment that comes with the Hybrid are 18-inch alloy wheels, rear park assist with rearview camera, tinted windows, power-folding heated side mirrors and tri-zone automatic climate control. Some of the new features added to the 2009 model are Bluetooth connectivity and real time traffic for the XM satellite radio.
The new Hybrid continues to impress its Miami drivers with its performance and power terrain. Available with rear-wheel or four-wheel drive, the Yukon Hybrid maintains its toughness. Both models utilize a 6.0 liter V8 engine located inside what GM calls an electrically variable transmission. Together, they produce 332 horsepower and 367 pound-feet of torque. The system can accelerate the Yukon up to speeds of approximately 25 mph using electricity only. Regenerative breaking replenishes the batteries by capturing energy normally lost coming to a stop.
There is no doubt about the seriousness of the Yukon Hybrid. Not only is it tough enough to get your through Miami streets, it also is fuel efficient and environmentally friendly. Talk about killing to birds with one stone.

The Bottom Line on the 2009 Buick Enclave,
Miami’s Most Trendy Crossover SUV
March 16, 2009
From theCar connection.com
By Rex Roy Rex Roy,
Editor Rex Roy
TheCarConnection.com's editors drove the new Buick Enclave in order to give you an expert opinion. TheCarConnection.com also researched available road tests on the new Buick Enclave to produce this conclusive review and to help you make sense of where and why reviewers might differ.
Likes:
* Easier to live with than a full-size SUV
* Graceful styling
* Comfortable, opulent interior
* Standard features galore
* Heated windshield included among other options
Dislikes:
* Excessive weight means it’s not nimble
* Transmission hunts on highway grades
* Unimpressive fuel economy
Buying tips:
After reading others' reviews and having driven the 2009 Buick Enclave, TheCarConnection.com’s editors highly recommend purchasing the rearview camera option.
Introduced last year, the Buick Enclave returns for 2009 in CX and CXL models with more convenience features and a new 3.6-liter V-6 direct injection engine as the standard power plant. The full-size luxury crossover has seating for eight and lots of cargo room while delivering 16 mpg city, 22 highway for all-wheel-drive models, according to EPA estimates. The Enclave’s interior is a combination of subdued, luxurious, and high-quality styling and materials. The elegant exterior design was well received by consumers last year because Buick retained the styling elements that made the Enclave a hit as a concept model a couple years prior. The Enclave’s retail price is surprisingly affordable for this type of vehicle, and the crossover offers a host of standard equipment and an extensive warranty.
The new 3.6-liter direct injection V-6 engine in the 2009 Buick Enclave produces 288 horsepower and 270 pound-feet of torque burning regular unleaded gasoline. The V-6 is mated to the Hydra-Matic 6T75 electronically controlled six-speed automatic transmission that features automatic grade braking, shift stabilization, and precise shift control. The wide-ratio (6.04:1) transmission is designed to deliver both performance and fuel economy, as well as tow up 4,500 pounds. Acceleration is good, but on the highway, the transmission sometimes hunts for the right gear and, in the process, jostles its occupants.
Compared to the other full-size crossovers from GM, the Enclave's ride is hushed and smooth, resulting in an exceptionally quiet interior. In addition, what makes the 2009 Buick Enclave particularly comfortable is the plus-size accommodations. It's huge inside, with a standard third row and room for 7 to 8 people (depending on the configuration). The third row's a real third row, too, not there only for advertising purposes. There's almost 19 cubic feet of storage space behind the third row; plus, maximum towing capacity is 4,500 pounds. Relative to full-size truck-based SUVs, the 2009 Buick Enclave should provide better safety for passengers, with standard front-seat side airbags, full-length side-curtain airbags, and electronic stability control. The Enclave is among the best-rated vehicles in crash tests, with top standings in all U.S. front- and side tests.
The 2009 Buick Enclave comes very well equipped, with top CXL trims offering (standard or optional) a 10-speaker Bose surround-sound stereo to three-zone climate control, a power rear liftgate, a head-up display (HUD), GPS, a two-panel sunroof, and a backseat DVD entertainment system. New convenience features on the 2009 Enclave model include heated and cooled driver and front-passenger seats, a Bluetooth hands-free phone interface, XM NavTraffic, OnStar Destination Download, and two new exterior colors: Quicksilver Metallic and Silver Green Metallic. A 19-inch wheel/tire package is available for the 2009 Buick Enclave and looks sharp, but be sure you test drive a model so equipped before you buy, as the ride quality suffers a bit.
Reason Why:
The 2009 Buick Enclave goes head-to-head with smaller and sportier competitor models yet holds its own, and the Enclave provides an American slant on how popular crossover SUVs should look and behave. Only the Audi Q7 and Volvo XC90 offer three rows of seats, but their last rows are better suited for children. The Volvo XC90, Audi Q7, and Infiniti RX all offer optional V-8 engines in their crossovers, giving their takes on luxury a bigger punch of power. The Lexus RX 350 provides a conservative interior ambiance that’s closest to that of the Enclave, if that’s what you like. And if room is important, go with the Buick.
The Bottom Line:
The 2009 Buick Enclave takes American-made luxury crossovers into the realm where Lexus resides.

A succession of strong V8s has resulted in impressive trailer ratings over the years, as well as ample acceleration in just about any situation.
You can notice the smooth and quite ride while driving through Miami, and handling is surprisingly agile for a 5,500-pound vehicle.

The 2010 GMC Sierra Goes Green in Miami
From motor trend
In its continuing effort to green up its products, GM has turned to its full-size pickups: the 2010 Chevrolet Silverado and its twin, the 2010 GMC Sierra. GM's efforts have wrung an extra mile per gallon out of each truck both in the city and on the highway, putting them at the top of their class in fuel economy.
Last year, when the 2009 model-year Silverado and Sierra debuted, they were achieving a measly 14 mpg city and 20 mpg highway. Even the XFE (eXtra Fuel Economy) models were only pulling off 15 mpg city and 21 mpg highway. To improve these figures, GM set its engineers to work under the hood to free up a little more fuel efficiency. To be completely accurate, though, the only traditional wrenching done was actually performed under the bed, where GM's engineers swapped out the old differential for a new, lower 3.08:1 gear set.
The rest of the work was done with a computer, adjusting the shift-points on the six-speed transmission, playing with the valve timing, and tweaking the Active Fuel Management system to keep the engine running on four cylinders instead of eight more of the time. All these little tweaks to the computer programming, along with the new gears out back, helped the Silverado/Sierra pick up 1 extra mpg in both city and highway driving, for an EPA-estimated 15 mpg city and 21 mpg highway on the 2010 models. Even the XFE models got a boost in highway fuel economy, up to 22 mpg for 2010. And of course, if you need more, there's always the Silverado/Sierra Hybrid, which will net you an impressive 21 mpg city and 22 mpg highway.
Those who actually use their trucks to haul things will be happy to know that all of GM's tinkering hasn't affected the truck's capabilities. Horsepower, torque, payload, and trailering abilities remain unchanged on the 2010 models. All the power and better fuel economy? Sounds like a win-win to us. For reference, the 2010 Ford F-150 achieves an EPA-estimated 14 mpg city and 20 mpg highway when equipped with the 5.4L V-8 and 15 mpg city, and 21 mpg highway when equipped with the 4.6L V-8 and the six-speed automatic transmission. The 2010 Dodge Ram, meanwhile, gets a Ford-rivaling 14 mpg city and 20 mpg highway. Foreign competition is even farther behind, with the 2010 Toyota Tundra getting 14 mpg city and 18 mpg highway with its 5.7L V-8, and 15 mpg city and 20 mpg highway with the 4.6L V-8. Bringing up the rear is the 2009 Nissan Titan (2010 specs haven't been announced yet), whose 5.6L V-8 is only good for 13 mpg city and 17 mpg highway, though running it on E85 Ethanol will get you 1 extra mpg on the highway.

In its continuing effort to green up its products, GM has turned to its full-size pickups: the 2010 Chevrolet Silverado and its twin, the 2010 GMC Sierra. GM's efforts have wrung an extra mile per gallon out of each truck both in the city and on the highway, putting them at the top of their class in fuel economy.
Last year, when the 2009 model-year Silverado and Sierra debuted, they were achieving a measly 14 mpg city and 20 mpg highway. Even the XFE (eXtra Fuel Economy) models were only pulling off 15 mpg city and 21 mpg highway. To improve these figures, GM set its engineers to work under the hood to free up a little more fuel efficiency. To be completely accurate, though, the only traditional wrenching done was actually performed under the bed, where GM's engineers swapped out the old differential for a new, lower 3.08:1 gear set.
