Forget to turn off the headlights? Who hasn't done that at least once? No worries anymore. Now, headlamps, parking lamps and interior lights will automatically turn off after 10 minutes with GM's new battery-rundown protection system, also standard.
The accessory catalogue includes a roof rack, side steps, splash guards, hood protector and vent visors. What's more GM offers a fitted tent option, a la Pontiac Aztek. One of the most functional accessories has to be the brushed aluminum bed extender, increasing its long-load capacity.
In summary, GM has improved what might be the most functional SUV cum pick-up truck ever to roll off an assembly line. Its commendable road manners, luxury car features and better-than-average build quality should appeal to a larger audience for sure.
