				2012 Chevrolet Equinox LTZ 3.0 FWD
			 
 
			
			Hey guys, I have this car to test for the week.  I know some of you might be interested or know someone who might be interested in buying a car, so I will try to keep you fellers and fellettes up to date on what I have going on.  
 This week I have a 2012 Chevrolet Equinox LTZ 3.0 V6 FWD.  Pretty loaded, and, just for Brandon, it is in Mocha Brown Metallic.  Has navigation and an early form of Chevy's new MyLink system as well as a special camera system that alerts you if you are leaving your lane or if a car is stopped in front of you.  Yeah, sounds stupid, but systems like this could save you from a fender bender, or worse, if you are distracted.

			Al- are there any other changes for 2012? Looks like my Vue might be replacing our Yaris as delivery car in the very near future. Namely, interior noise and perhaps suspension tuning?

			Interior sound is good.  I think the Nox is better than the SRX I had.

			My mom has an LTZ 2011 Equinox in that color. We went from a 2008 to a 2011 and the difference was substantial. She loves her car. It's fully loaded besides Navi.

I can tell you this much though, iPhones don't connect to my Pioneer radio as well as my android does in terms of call quality.

			That's the issue lots of members are having with their iPhones and some GM cars.  They cannot sync phone calls, sometimes the phone will disconnect at random, etc etc.
