I saw one last weekend at a motel in Chambersburg. I was driving by and saw the front end, and I new what it was, but I couldn't believe there was one here. I drove back and snapped a few pics.

Couldn't get any from the front. Apparently they are a fleet only vehicle in the US. I guess their afraid they will compete to closely with the Equinox.

 

Not exactly. GM is selling every Equinox and other versions it builds, they're very popular. Selling them to fleets would mean less profit because fleets get discounts. So this goes to rental companies and the Equinox and platform mates are sold in dealers.

 

 

That's the Idea: Less Equinoxes in Fleets, and more in People's Driveways! the Equinox has gotten so Popular, GM is Mashing GO on the Spring Hill Assembly Line because the Canadian Plants can't keep up! (i've taken to calling the Equinox a "Molten Hotcake" because its Selling so well!)

I saw one on Criagslist at the enterprise car cales in town. Only 12,000 miles and 21K asking price. Has the 3.0L V6 or I would have taken a look and checked it out. I thought they were sold in South America only until that link on autoblog.

 

The Equinox is moving to the 3.L, so maybe they have too many 3.0L and too much Saturn Vue tooling left over to go to waste.

It's already been explained that they sell the Captiva to rental fleets because they can sell every Equinox they build retail and make more money and keeping them out of the rental fleets improves resale value.
