Acadia Offers Great Used Value

The economy right now is still slowly recovering, but people are smart and shopping at Albany Used RVs rather than forking over the cash for the large, luxurious, new models. There is nothing wrong with buying a used car anymore, and if you can find a certified pre-owned car then you shouldn’t pass up that deal. If you happen to visit UT Used Cars in the near future, keep your eyes peeled for an older GMC Acadia. While the Acadia hasn’t been cruising around the roads for all that many years, it is still a great value and GMC put some thought into their entry into the SUV world. Buying from Used Car Dealership Wallingford usually means that you can buy a nicer vehicle than if you were to buy brand new.
The GMC Acadia first debuted in 2007 and you can pick one up right now for $19,137. That is a great price for the features, and especially when you consider that the Acadia has not undergone any significant redesigns and remains contemporary and attractive throughout its short lifespan. The estimated TMV (true market value) for the 2008 GMC Acadia is estimated to be $21,240 while the 2009 model jumps up to $24,830. The real value is evident when you consider that a brand new 2010 Acadia will set you back $31,740 based on current MSRP but the used TMV for a 2010 Acadia is around $26,008. The newest 2011 GMC Acadia is retailing for $31,840 and drivers report it being worth every penny!
From 2007 until 2009, the GMC Acadia came equipped with a 3.6-liter V6 engine with direct injection. This produces 275 horsepower and 251 pound feet of torque. Also, the earlier models tend to downshift more often than necessary, and the 2010 transmission corrected this minor glitch. The technological mother-load is available on 2009 and later GMC Acadia SUVs, including Bluetooth, seats that heat and cool, as well as real-time traffic for the in-dash navigation system.
