How heavy is your boat?
The Enclave/Acadia/etc only tows 1000 lbs more than the Honda.

The Honda is 3500lbs.
I try to notice things like tow rating now but growing up, if the vehicle could pull it, it did. I can assure you from experience that most vehicles will tow amounts that FAR exceed their ratings.

I'm not sure I'd tow anything heavier with the Acadia. It really has to work to tow that 3500lbs. I'd hate to max it out. Besides the tow rating, it's only a fwd and I get nervous pulling the boat out on a wet boat ramp.

That is fine until an accident happens and insurance denies the claim.

My BIL/SIL have a new 2010 Traverse. The thing is real nice. They have the bottom end version yet it comes completely loaded with the norms. Power locks, mirrors, windows, keyless entry. Its 3rd row seating is bigger than my 2nd row in my Trailblazer. The thing is a BIG vechicle. Its no small SUV.
I can't speak on MPG... but I can ask. |

I towed the same boat in high school with a 4 cylinder Camry.
