| Road Test |
The Envoy is GMC’s mid-size sport-utility vehicle, closely related to the Chevrolet TrailBlazer, Buick Rainier, and Saab 9-7X. Unlike many new utility vehicles, the 2008 GMC Envoy has traditional truck-based underpinnings, which make it better suited for towing but less proficient at hauling passengers than car-based crossovers.
