"I got this car at 16 when it was 3 years old in 2007. I was angry with my dad for getting me an OLDSMOBILE but when I actually saw it, and drove it I instantly knew why he bought it! I am now 21, my friends have all gone into debt because they wanted new cars and I am content and happy with my Bravada still. It is so comfortable, and roomy. I love that I have AWD and it does great in the snow. The gas mileage isn't great, but what do you expect in a heavy SUV with a V6? It has plenty of power to pass, and get on the interstate ect. It may say Oldsmobile Bravada on the outside, but it says luxury on the inside!"

Reliable and very comfortable

By A Happy Owner (CT) on Tuesday, April 16, 2013

I owned and sold this car
Reason: Needed something smaller - My approximate mileage is 201,000

Pros: "Comfortable Leather Interior, Reliable"

Cons: "rare, bad gas mileage"

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 7

"Ever since I got the car it has always been good to me. I had normal maintenance problems at 170k miles and 190k miles with alternator and various things of course, but parts weren't too expensive and I worked on the car myself. Sadly I had to get something smaller because the gas wasn't very good at 16.8 mpg as calculated by the car itself. Otherwise its roomy and the sound system sounds great and the AWD was fun in the snow. Also the car had air suspension so when you go faster, maybe around fifty, the suspension lets go of some air to lower the car and it has a great feel to it. Loved it. Great first car to me."

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 108,000

Pros: "Comfy ride, dual power seats, AWD, fun to drive"

"I have had this car over 3 years; was 6 yrs old when i bought it. Comes loaded with standard features that are optional on the Trailblazer and Envoy. It's been very dependable. Very comfortable seating, whether a short trip or an all-day one. Lots of cargo space. Mileage is as expected, around 18 mpg. AWD is great. Great in the snow! Rides and handles much better than the Explorer. Too bad they stopped making this car!"

"I love this SUV. I have had it for 10 years. I would buy another one if they still made them. I love all the "extras", the heated seats,the power windows and power seats, the rear defrosters, power mirrors,and a 6 disc Cd player.It is nice to have back seat vents for heat and a/c."
