Re: Chevy Traverse??
I have the Chevy Equinox which is the smaller version of the Traverse and I love it. Very comfortable and great milage. I think they made a lot of changes to both models that improved them a lot over previous years. If I needed a larger vehicle I would have definately checked out the Traverse. If you don't need the 3rd row seating or extra cargo space I'd recommend checking out the Equinox.

Leighla has one so you can FM her.
I've ridden in it and I really liked it. Very roomy, comfortable and drove smoothly.

Re: Chevy Traverse??
We just got one a few weeks ago. So far we love it. My husband traded his small car in for it and now will never go back to a smaller car. Lots of room. Third row seat if you need. So far nothing bad to say!

I can only speak for my Enclave, but the 3rd row is a full thrid row, and very comfortable seats adults. I have sat back there with no issues.
As far as configurations, it's really what you desire. The car/truck comes in both 7 or 8 passenger. The 7-pass has bucket seats/Captain's chairs in the second row, which was very necessary for me since I had 2 kids in carseats. In order to get to the 3rd row, I didn't want to move a carseat to get to the 3rd row, so we got the bucket seats and access is easy through the middle.
8 passenger/2nd row bench seat is a good option if you have only one car seat and can flip a portion of the bench seat to get in the 3rd row.
Here's a link where you can compare interior sizes among other features of the Durango vs. Traverse for 2009 models.

Good Luck!

Re: Chevy Traverse??
Its a nice car very roomy. The only thing I did not like is that it was alot to add upgrades and some of the interior is still plastic even with upgrades but that is just if i had to nit pick.

Re: Chevy Traverse??
we test drove it and really liked it..roomy and a good ride!!
we also compared it to the acadia (which, imo, was the best ride of the 3) and equinox which was the least comfortable/smooth ride of the 3...i did like all 3 trucks and felt that the traverse fell in the middle as far as price, comfort, luxury, accesories, etc.
