2014 Chevy Traverse {#Review}

**Full Disclosure: I test-drove the 2014 Chevy Traverse for seven days for review purposes.  No compensation was received.  All opinions are my own. 

When the 2014 Chevy Traverse was dropped at my house, I thought, ‘MAN!  This thing is bulky and cumbersome.’  But after driving it around for a few hours, I fell in love with the SUV.

I was so in love with the Traverse that I didn’t take time to photograph much of the vehicle, but I do have these shots of the center console and part of the middle row:

The 2014 Chevy Traverse handled well, had a TON of space and was a super comfy ride.

My top five favorite features of the 2014 Chevy Traverse:

1. Remote Start – Summers in South Texas are brutal so having the car cooled off by the time you were ready to drive off was so fantastic!
2. Blind Spot Indicator – It’s such a smart feature – it comes on before a car enters your blind spot and stays on until the car has moved out of the spot.
3. Dual-Passenger A/C Controls – My husband and I don’t usually agree on how cool it should be.  I like it incredibly cold and my husband likes it about 10 degrees warmer than that.  Dual-passenger controls make it easy to keep it how we like.
4. USB Ports – There are 2 USB ports at the rear of the center console for second-row use.  That was SO GREAT because when the kids needed to charge something, they could do it on their own!
5. Huge Gas Tank – I was really surprised that I didn’t have to fill up more than once while I had the Traverse!

The only thing I’d change: 

• The Traverse gets about 19 miles per gallon.  I’d like to see that increased a bit, but really I can’t complain!
