      The 301 HP V6 is strong. There is a bit of torque steer under straight line full acceleration, but very managable. It will be a good seller.

      Geeze there’s already a terrain Denali in your area?

      @CraigInIndy Nice! I think the torque steer will only be a problem for those who can’t hang on to the wheel 😀

      I agree Alex, it’s just enough so that it lets you really feel the power.

      Vic, I drove the 4 cylinder too.

      Yes, Denali is available with both engines.

      @CraigInIndy Curious as to your opinion about the dual-flow dampers on the Terrain Denali. Did you notice anything different compared to the non-Denali Terrain?

      I did do some agressive cornering, it felt good. I have not done a side by side comparison but the Denali seemed very stable in the corners and comfortable on the highway.

      I kind of swerve (aggressive cornering) on my Terrain, I kind of felt like the car was sliding sideways though
