2006 Pontiac Torrent - FWD
Pros: Power Sunroof
Cons: Speedometer
Advice: Glad I chose it over the Equinox.
I love this car. Have had it a month. The only tiny complaint that I did have was the speedometer. There is no 35, 45, 55, etc. It is 20, 30, 40, etc. You have to guess what speed you are going in alot of areas. Havent gotten a ticket yet so I can live with it. Otherwise, great car! Nice looking! Lots of leg room and mine doesnt have the shelf in the cargo area so I have alot of cargo room. -
2006 Pontiac Torrent - FWD
Pros: My favorite feature is how the back seat moves 8inches forword and back and I love the storrage idea in the back.
Cons: I do not dislike anything on this car.
Advice: If you are looking at buying a torrent then consider the sport version because it has a better suspension then the base and thus it rides nicer.
Was a nice ride better than it's cousin the equinox due to the sport suspension. Lots of cargo room for a mid size suv. Lots of leg room for all passengers. -
2006 Pontiac Torrent - FWD
Pros: Interior room
Cons: rough ride and small cargo area
Advice: Good buy but can't take much with you. 20 mpg avg. nothing to shout about either.
The Torrent looks good, ride is a little harsh and choppy on average roads, power is average but engine sound is annoying upon take off. Interior room was great though and seats were comfy, sporty looking in and out. Cargo area is narrow but adaptable. Overall a nice vehicle but nothing special as far as performance and ride quality.
