OK, I thought this was strange.
This evening I went to another dealer to look at their 6 Acadias. I popped the hood on a SLT-2 and was surprised to see that there was a pneumatic lifter that keeps the hood up. 5-6 weeks ago, the first one that I saw and drove, SLT-2 also, had a hood that needed to be propped with a manual static bar.
Guess they changed mechanism. In January, I thought it was sort of "cheap" that a $45K MSRP car required you to manually prop the hood.
So...what does your SLT-2 have? Wonder if a pattern will emerge over delivery dates before and after the change.
PS - None of them were exactly what I wanted. Summit White with everything and brick interior was blinking at me in the showroom. A Red Jewel with ebony interior (loaded) may be mine if delivered on Monday, but I still may wait for Carbon Metallic/ebony.
