| Pros: What do you like about 2008 Chevrolet Uplander?
Very satisfied with our Uplander. Runs smooth as silk for an extended length Van. Excellent get up and go for highway driving, all the bells and whistles are still working perfectly as well. Lots of space for long distance driving with our two four footed animals, smooth ride helps with them too. Milage not bad. I'd tell any of my friends it's a good vehicle if they were shopping for a Van. We put on about 12,000 miles a year. Cons: How would you improve 2008 Chevrolet Uplander?
Interior is so~so. I find it looks very plastic, and wonder how long those door handles will last. TPM system, oh my yes that thing is a real pain. We took ours in saying all 4 flat as well. Two sensors were defective and had to be replaced with less than 3,000 miles on the Van. The glove compartment door fell off, one little hinge holds that on---made of plastic as well. Attention to little details would help. 2008 Chevrolet Uplander Review:
All in all, with now approx. 15,000 miles of mainly highway driving this has been a very good vehicle. However, as we all know, don't ask till we've got at least 60,000 miles + if we think a vehicle is really good or not. |

| Pros: What do you like about 2008 Chevrolet Uplander?
Very good power to spare and good looking.
I like the driving position. Feel like driving a bus.
Very easy to get in and out compare to a car.
Nice finish for a van.
The paint is well applied.
The upgrade custom captains seats are excellent. Cons: How would you improve 2008 Chevrolet Uplander?
We bought the short wheelbase and the leg room is very tight on the second row specially if you have the captain seats because they are bigger than the standard seats.
The emblem at the front grille is defective as many other uplander I have seen on the lot. The water gets in between and ruins the reflective aluminum paper in between. I have a new one on order. MY van is a week old. I am sure that most of all the uplander are in the same boat with this problem. 2008 Chevrolet Uplander Review:
For the price they are selling this van it is a good deal if you plan to keep it for a long time. If you plan to get rid of it within the next few years buy a import instead because your van will worth very little. The production is discontinued. |

| Pros: What do you like about 2008 Chevrolet Uplander?
We, more importantly, my wife really likes the Uplander. It's fit and finish is excellent - I can't find a bad spot of paint on the car. The interior is Well Done and spacious. 3.9L engine has good get-up and go. We owned an '02 Venture and all the things I didn't like on the Venture were fixed with the Uplander. Cons: How would you improve 2008 Chevrolet Uplander?
Cost cutting effort with the 1/2 leather 1/2 fabric is cheesy, but liveable. Sun roof. 2008 Chevrolet Uplander Review:
Comfortable car with a nice ride. Might even say it's fun to drive, but I don't want to get that close to the edge of the cliff. Very good quality and I love all the bells and whistles - too bad GM couldn't build quality like this going back 10 years or even 6 or 7 years ago... |

| Pros: What do you like about 2008 Chevrolet Uplander?
Good power for hills. Handles well in snow, and icy conditions. We seem to be getting fairly good milage, and most of our driving is in town. Granted, where we are in town speed limit in 90% of the area is 45 mph, and roads are smooth and flat. All the interior bells and whistles work well, no complaints. Cons: How would you improve 2008 Chevrolet Uplander?
No complaints from my husband, but I find the seats very uncomfortable, and his back is in worse shape than mine. Only problem we've had is with the tire pressure monitoring system. I'd pull that thing out of there if I could! We've followed the instructions how to correct the problem, no luck so far. It says we have 4 flat tires--sure runs perfectly on 4 flats. :) 2008 Chevrolet Uplander Review:
Only had the vehicle for 3 months, and just over 3500 miles. All in all we've not had any problems of a serious nature. Just that pesky TPM system. Guess we'll have to see Mr. Goodwrench, at least it's a free fix. |

The inside has a lot of space. Drives awsome. Cons: How would you improve 2008 Chevrolet Uplander?
The fold down seats are hard to manage for a woman. They are very heavy to remove and to replace. Turning into a tight parking space is hard. 2008 Chevrolet Uplander Review:
I really like the Uplander except for the heavy removable seats and the turning radius. |
