You are correct gas milage is way too low. What GM needs to do is develop a direct fuel injection system and duel overhead valves for there trucks and Wa-la, thirty miles a gallon on the Road and twenty two in town. And that's on Eighty seven Octain gas. And By the by there will be a 12 to 15% gain in horsepower. and Just think this infomation comes from someone who received his education from Californis pubic schools. Chuckle, Chuckle. :o)

I researched your comments about fuel usage of the buick enclave. The reason why it says superior is because its overall size and 8 passenger seating its superior to anything on the road as far as fuel ecomomy. Also all 2008 vehicle will now have to give real world fuel ecomony ratings with air conditioning running with real world driving like accelerating at a stop light etc. Thats why the Toyota prius will be damaged when they come out with 2008 models we will all have a wakeup call it will be 34-36 mpg, try to get 8 people in that vehicle. I'm buying an enclave I will get 4year warrenty 50,000 miles. Wow

Responding to Thinkerman's comments..simply putting DOHC multivalve engines does not mean fuel economy improves and especially by the margins he/she is talking of (from teens to 30 mpg). Buzzwords and superficial knowledge of technology can go a long way in blinding folks into thinking and biasing their opinions. Just because cars have engines with such technologies (esp. in the Japanese versions) does not mean that when used in heavier trucks (designed for trucking..never mind what folks actually use them for) one automatically gets the mpg of cars. LOL (sad too that folks with superficial knowledge significantly make up the consumer populace and then go on dissing REAL American makes while justifying purchases as being assembled in America is somehow Made in America) The American manufacturers are complete full-line companies and because of that they are perceived as being low-tech and building gas guzzling because they catered to both cars and trucks (not minor forays into trucks)..so naturally their mpg image has been hampered. The foreign makes hardly do much trucks in comparison and so they get a pass as being so fuel-efficient (sure just stop making trucks or drop your production by 80% and then you will have domestic makes looking as fuel-efficient as foreign makes)..the Tundra gets equal or worse numbers for all that multi-valve technology vs the Silverado

BRAINWWASHED..so THINK AGAIN..and AGAIN..and AGAIN

lol

To correct an article above, the warranty of all GM cars are 5 years and 100,000 miles. Four years and 50,000 miles is not correct as mention.

General Motors powertrain Warranty in 5 years/100,000 miles. Buicks bumper to Bumper Warranty is 4 years/50,000 miles. This can be verified by going to Buicks web site. So i'm sticking with my purchase a Buick Enclave.

The Enclave alreday has dual overhead camshafts with four valves per cylinder. Along with that it has a six speed transmission and it is equipped with variable valve timing on all four camshafts. Not to forget the stabilty control and by far the best electronic powertrain controls in the business.

The direct injection will first appear on a similar powered Cadillac CTS & STS this fall.

The technology is there to do better.I have a 1985 Cadillac sedan that has always gotten 22 mpg around town and 28 mpg on the road and that's loaded with 4 people and running 75 mph with full complement of power (ac, radio, etc). That was before GM realized they had a car that needed very little maintenance and got good mileage also. The very next year they made changes to the carbureater and never got good mileage again. People were buying Cadillacs and not Chevrolets and the bureaucrats couldn't stand to see a working class citizen driving a Cadillac.
