Talk:Chevrolet Equinox

message: In this article, the current (2017 to present) 3rd Generation Equinox is reported herein NOT to be available with a V6 engine; this is incorrect. The 2017's were indeed available with GM's High Feature 301 HP LFX 3.6L V6 engine. The V6 engine option was dropped only for the 2018 & 2019 model years. The following sentence should therefore be removed, and the 3.6L added as an available engine option:
"The 3.6L V6 engine option did not carry on to the third generation."
Perhaps replace with "The 3.6L v6 engine option did not carry on to the 2018 and later models."
However, the issue may actually be that the "Third Generation" Equinox actually runs from 2018 - Present, (not 2017 - Present, as currently listed).  In fact, the 2nd Generation Equinox is listed in this very same article as running from 2010 - 2017, inclusive.  Most other sources site the 3rd generation as beginning in 2018, not 2017.  So perhaps just change this section to read "Third Generation (2018 - Present)", and all would be good.  
For reference, see the Wikipedia Article, GM High Feature Engine, LFX section, Applications, 2013-2017 Equinox.--Nitrorat (talk) 01:43, 30 March 2019 (UTC)

message: The Equinox has been called the successor to the Tracker.  Should it say both in the info box?  Bok269 22:15, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The Equinox is a mid-size SUV, and it is larger than both Blazer & Tracker, the SUV's predecessors.  The TrailBlazer, introduced in 1999 was actually Chevrolet's add for an SUV and slot between the Tahoe and Blazer.  The Equinox isn't a proper replacement for the Tracker, but it's a proper replacement for the S-10 Blazer. GM is looking for a proper Tracker replacement on the Sub-Theta platform. -- Bull-Doser 02:40, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: You got several things wrong. First off, the TrailBlazer appeared in 2002, not 1999. Second, the TrailBlazer was made to replace the Blazer (just look at the name), and the Equinox is considered a replacement for the Tracker as the Equinox is similar in size to the Tracker and appeared shortly after the Tracker was discontinued. --ApolloBoy 03:00, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The Equinox is much bigger than the Tracker, but is definitely the closest Chevrolet to its replacement. IFCAR 13:25, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Predecessor 

message: I've been noticing that certain users have been vandalizing this page by listing false MPG listings (much lower than EPA ratings.) The EPA Ratings which can be found at http://www.epa.gov are as follows. I will put this information here as quick reference if this page gets defaced again:
2005-2007 Chevrolet Equinox (1st Generation)
3.4L V6 (LNJ) FWD - 19 city US / 25 hwy US
3.4L V6 (LNJ) AWD - 19 city US / 25 hwy US
2008-2009 Chevrolet Equinox (1st Generation)
3.4L V6 (LNJ) FWD - 17 city US / 24 hwy US
3.4L V6 (LNJ) AWD - 17 city US / 24 hwy US
3.6L V6 (LY7) FWD - 16 city US / 24 hwy US
2010-present Chevrolet Equinox (2nd Generation)
2.4L I4 (SIDI) FWD - 22 city US / 32 hwy US
2.4L I4 (SIDI) AWD - 20 city US / 29 hwy US
3.0L V6 (SIDI) FWD - 17 city US / 27 hwy US
3.0L V6 (SIDI) AWD - 16 city US / 24 hwy US

: You had the highway figures before "(city)" for each engine; I've corrected that and put in both figures.  Also, the EPA site now shoes the V6 FWD mileage at 17/25 rather than 17/27. --Vossanova o< 15:03, 23 September 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: The fuel consumption converter in the 2010 section was set to display the long-obsolete "Imperial mpg" in addition to the weird Canadian "L/100km" which nobody uses.  I adjusted to converter to display real-world units (mpg-US and km/L).Santamoly (talk) 06:20, 27 March 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  MPG Claims 

message: I added a section quoting several road tests which have shown a discrepancy between the EPA ratings and realistic user mileage. I cited three articles from major auto news outlets, so if anyone thinks this is too controversial for Wikipedia please note why before editing. Bdc101 (talk) 17:41, 17 February 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I think it's okay as long as the references are there.  You are simply pointing out that other sources have achieved certain test results, and not making any claims of your own (e.g. "The Equinox is not a fuel efficient vehicle").  I did fix up the references and section formatting. --Vossanova o< 17:55, 17 February 2010 (UTC)
replies: text:  Awesome. Thanks for cleaning up the references, I'll make sure to use footnotes next time. Bdc101 (talk) 18:13, 17 February 2010 (UTC)

replies: text: +1 For merging > First generation (2005–2009), They share same dimensions, engines, transmissions and most likely parts. The Torrent was essentially a spin-off of the latter - why not merge both? There are also no citations on the Pontiac Torrent article. No need for arguments, but it is a bit old now...  — Preceding unsigned comment added by NiceCandy23 (talk • contribs) 15:57, 26 November 2018 (UTC)
