    New Tahoe Order Constraints?

    Why not call McGonigal GMC in Kokomo they have an SLT on the lot and allocations for two more and they honor employee pricing not sure about supplier. Ask for Lori. I've had multiple chances to order Tahoe, Yukon or Escalade test drove two and have seen a couple dozen on the lots since last...

    Price Gouging

    One thing is for sure those plants and guaranteed employee packages don't pay for themselves it takes a lot of sales and those SUVs are big profit. First year demand won't last forever when they are all over town. Sooner than later it will be business as usual. What we have here are buyers...

    Price Gouging

    I don't know but trends change when it seems the current trend will continue unabated. I thought trucks were in shortage but I'm seeing a $3,000 customer cash offering. Wait till gasoline reaches $3.79 a gallon which is less than the 52% increase for this past year. When everyone sees the cost...

    2021 Yukon Denali---POS

    GM should be investigated by the government and failure rates made public. If it is a good product they should have nothing to hide.

    Employee/supplier pricing gone?

    I would prefer that potential buyers delay buying until the price increases abate and quality improves. Let's not let GM think they can survive by cost cutting coupled with price increases. In three years or less these will be better vehicles and incentives will return. I have a very good 2012...

    Employee/supplier pricing gone?

    I can still build and price it. I thought the discount seemed lower than before so I did the math and it's still the same. I'm hoping they get the bugs out of these and they become a viable choice so I'll remain waiting.

    Employee/supplier pricing gone?

    I do believe the employee discount has been reduced. Another reason to wait it out till demand has been satiated to some extent.

    Got my Hoe cleaned up the other day...

    These past models are looking better each time they restyle. Size and functionality were better then, I search for a reason to buy newer but so far have come up empty.

    Rattles!

    Who doesn't hate rattles especially in a new vehicle. How do they make them to rattle two months after we buy them? Something I noticed from a test drive was the ultrathin plastic in the cargo area. A knuckle test sent it vibrating.

    Price Gouging

    That is ridiculous. They know some people have to have it now and with low supply they can always lower it at the end of the MY and sell them when no one else has them. Smart money waits till the market comes to them.

    My 2012 broke down for the first time

    I was hoping it would last at least as long as the factory battery. It failed five years to the month after the vehicle was built. Since changing it I put a battery tender on it when it sits for a whole week during the winter. On a trip recently I noticed the voltage dip below 14 and I took it...

    Thoughts - owned both - 2021 Escalade & Denali

    So the big console takes up more room I imagine. I hadn't considered that but that would be a negative thing. Wives can be so perceptive that's why I asked.

    My 2012 broke down for the first time

    I'm getting ready to mow so to save time I'm just responding in general but I do appreciation everyone's comments. The Delco battery, forget which type it is but recollection is it is a five year battery was replaced in 2017 so it is three years old. Now I'm concerned that it might be a...

    My 2012 broke down for the first time

    I had just begun a three and a half hour return leg Wednesday when the DIC began showing traction control off, park assist off with warning chimes. Just happened to be in a construction zone but was able to continue to an off ramp. Before I could find a safe place to pull over the gauges went...

    21 Tahoe HC - Air in Tires

    There is no way to purge the air from the tire when inflating with nitrogen so the tires will be filled with a mixture regardless. It would be interesting to hear opinions of pressure changing during temperature swings. I'm a tire pressure nut, it has to be right at 33 to 34 psi at warm...

    High country or Premier

    I can build a Premier with just the options I want for a lot less money than High Country and it doesn't say High Country everywhere they can stick High Country. High Country here High Country there High Country everywhere. High Country doesn't mean anything to me if fact it would mean more if...

    2021 Tahoe RST Abismal mileage

    Would the cost per mile; engine option increase, fuel price and added maintenance cost justify choosing the Duramax over the 5.3L?

    Price Gouging

    Blame the global economy and offshoring for that. GM at one time produced chips in Kokomo, IN by their subsidiary, Delco Electronics. Delco was bundled with a few other parts manufacturers spun off and named Delphi. A few years later Delphi declared bankruptcy and those plants were shut down and...

    Auto Stop Function

    Only brought it up because it is germane to the reasoning behind auto stop. Didn't mean to agitate your sensibilities but emission standards are entirely responsible for the feature you despise. To pretend otherwise is folly.
