New guy here with a 2004 GMC Envoy XL SLE. My name is Brandon, and this is where I'll start. This used to be my grandparents car that they bought brand new back in the day. My grandpa got sick quick, and then it was neglected for a period of time. In February 2013 my grandmother decided to part ways with it. She took it to the GMC dealer in town, and had everything taken care of maintenance wise. We bought it from her, and it is my current car as of now. It had only 75,000 miles when we got it and it runs strong, and drives amazing.

As soon as I got it I wanted to get it as far away from the "grandparent's car" I'd grown up with it as. So, of course I did what I could, being a college student.

Hey, thanks for the welcome! But I probably won't try to do anything too extreme with it, seeing as it's so long, and only 2WD. I've been using it mostly for hauling stuff inside the car lately. Working some personal home remodeling and what not, so I've taken advantage of all the space it offers inside.
