Getting Ready for Our Test Drive of the 2012 Chevrolet Equinox

So I am a little over 2 weeks away from test driving the 2012 Chevrolet Equinox. I was just contacted by Chevrolet to confirm delivery — yep I am all set. So what will I do when I get the Equinox, you ask? Well, what I normally do is go on a road trip with the family. Last year when I reviewed OnStar’s FMV (For My Vehicle) we headed up to Sleepy Hollow. The trip was fun and the FMV did a rather nice job in getting us around.

So I have been speaking to my wife and we are just trying to narrow it down. I am excited to take the Equinox for a ride. The crossover looks very nice and I am curious to see how the integrated OnStar setup behaves.

So that is it — I will update you when I get the 2012 Chevrolet Equinox.

That car has got some serious tech included. How long until we won't be needed to drive cars ourselves?

Sonya76 Indeed -- and leading that charge is the @OnStar tech. Well, keep in mind that @Ford has the Park Assist and @Google has been doing private trials of a car that does drive itself.

So to answer your question -- soon :-)
