Acadia (French: Acadie) was a colony of New France in northeastern North America that included parts of eastern Quebec, the Maritime provinces, and modern-day Maine to the Kennebec River. During much of the 17th and early 18th centuries, Norridgewock on the Kennebec River and Castine at the end of the Penobscot River were the southern-most settlements of Acadia. The actual specification by the French government for the territory refers to lands bordering the Atlantic coast, roughly between the 40th and 46th parallels. Later, the territory was divided into the British colonies which became Canadian provinces and American states. The population of Acadia included members of the Wabanaki Confederacy and descendants of emigrants from France (i.e., Acadians). The two communities inter-married, which resulted in a significant portion of the population of Acadia being Métis.
The GMC Acadia is a full-size crossover utility vehicle (CUV) from GMC. The GMC Acadia, Chevrolet Traverse, and Buick Enclave share the new GM Lambda platform. The Acadia went on sale in the United States in December 2006, and in Canada in January 2007. The Acadia replaces three of the 7- or 8-seater vehicles on the Pontiac-Buick-GMC dealership network, the mid-size GMC Safari van, the GMC Envoy, and the Pontiac Montana SV6 minivan for the domestic market. As of 2009, the Lambda vehicles have replaced the Buick Rainier, Buick Rendezvous, and the Buick Terraza, and then subsequently the GMC Envoy and the Chevrolet TrailBlazer. A Denali version of the Acadia debuted in 2010 as a 2011 model. In 2016, the second generation Acadia was repositioned as a mid-size crossover utility vehicle (as a 2017 model) in order to compete within the growing mid-size CUV market against the likes of the Ford Edge and Dodge Journey.
The Acadia represents GMC's entry-level truck-like CUV and is the first unibody vehicle from the marque. It is also GMC's first front-wheel drive passenger vehicle and GMC's first crossover utility vehicle (CUV). GMC's first front wheel drive vehicle was the mid-1970s motorhome, a recreational vehicle that used derivative of the GM E platform from the Cadillac Eldorado and Oldsmobile Toronado.

In this video we take a look at the recently refreshed GMC Acadia. Most of the refresh took place in the styling department, so rest assured this video is relevant for older GMC Acadias and its platform mates the Buick Enclave and Chevy Traverse. As an amateur car reviewer, I'll give you a real world, practical, unscripted analysis without the fluff of other automotive channels. In this review we'll look at fuel economy, passenger space and seating layouts, rear cargo space behind the third row and all the other key aspects of the Acadia. A special thanks to Rico Auto Complex of Gallup, NM for the test drive. You can find them here: www.ricoautocomplex.com As always, please like, subscribe, share and comment.

Bucking the trend, the all-new Acadia is smaller in every dimension vs the outgoing model shrinking from one of the largest 3-row crossovers to one of the smaller models. Insane? Not at all. The Acadia is part of GM's new strategy to separate the Acadia, Enclave and Traverse. The Acadia will tackle Toyota's Highlander head-on, the Enclave will compete with the Infiniti QX60 and the Traverse will grow for 2018 to become one of the largest 3-row CUVs on the market. Can a right-sized Acadia compete in the toughest segment in America?

Less Weight, Less Engine Smaller and lighter, the Acadia no longer requires a V-6 engine, at least according to GMC. For 2017, the base engine is now a 194-hp 2.5-liter four-cylinder. A 3.6-liter V-6, newer than the outgoing Acadia’s similarly sized V-6, will be optional and is estimated to produce 310 horsepower. Official EPA fuel-economy estimates haven’t been released, but General Motors says the front-drive four-cylinder Acadia, which comes with a stop-start feature, will achieve 22 mpg in the city and 28 mpg on the highway, impressive figures for a three-row. The front-drive six-cylinder, alternatively, will be good for 17/25 mpg with the help of Active Fuel Management, which can shut down some cylinders to save fuel.

Sponsored by Formatt-Hitech Chris Nicholson, author of “Photographing National Parks,” first photographed Acadia in 1997, and has since returned about a dozen times. In this presentation he shares strategies and stories from working in the park, including information about places to stay, specific gear to consider bringing to an Acadia shoot, iconic and off-the-beaten-path locations, and subjects a photographer can expect to find during different times of year. Just like the National Park Service, Acadia is celebrating its 100th birthday in 2016. The presentation also includes news about centennial events scheduled for the park, including photography retreats, winter and night-sky festivals, wildlife seminars and more.

In the house I grew up in, my room in the basement
The hours turning to years we've spent
Remember Chris in the backyard laughing so damn hard
And no one knew why but the rest is forgotten
Behind me sometimes it reminds me
Of when we, we used to belong here
Every memory comes on when I hear that old song
We used to sing with the words all wrong
I remember the faces and familiar places
Tonight seemed all wrong but Acadia is gone
Ran out of gas on the highway, we walked there and I gave
Drunken speeches on sobriety
Now we've all moved away and somehow we came in
But I remember where it began at
Behind me sometimes it reminds me
Of when we, we used to belong here
Every memory comes on when I hear that old song
We used to sing with the words all wrong
I remember the faces and familiar places
Tonight seemed all wrong but Acadia is gone
Remember in 1712 Acadia road fell
They tore the house down
Every memory comes on when I hear that old song
We used to sing with the words all wrong
I remember the faces and familiar places
Tonight seemed all wrong but Acadia is gone, Acadia is gone
In the house I grew up in, remember the faces
When Andrew and I wrecked each other's cars and
