    Is this vehicle TOO big?

    I went from a 2007 Tahoe to a 2012 Yukon to a 2016 Yukon and now to a 2021 Tahoe, so mine was a gradual move up in vehicle size to get used to. It is a big vehicle, so if you're not used to driving a large SUV or pick-up, it will take some time to get used to it. But as mentioned above, you have...

    Ordering Delays...What would you do?

    It just depends on what the dealer ordered. I've attached an excerpt from the 2021 Yukon Ordering Guide that has the various (RPO Codes) options dealers have when ordering. My experience has been that every vehicle I've purchased here in Oklahoma anyway has had the 50 State Emissions. Maybe they...

    Picking this up on Monday 2021 Tahoe Z71

    Good question. Last time the wife was with me and I got that message, I had her get out and check to make sure both of the back-up lights were working and they were. However, I don''t know if this mattered, but after I received the message, I placed it in Park then Reverse again to have her...

    Picking this up on Monday 2021 Tahoe Z71

    Thanks. I like yours too!! Yes, I'm getting the phantom "Check Reverse Lamp" error message too. Mine was assembled on 8/24/2020. I wonder if everyone is getting it, or was it just a particular batch made around that time? Anyway, hopefully we'll find out something soon and it's an easy fix.

    Ordering Delays...What would you do?

    In the Corvette world, many Californians purchase theirs from out of state from places like Ohio, Maryland, New Hampshire, and New Jersey for the most part and have them shipped. Anyway, I know mine is a Tahoe, but I believe they all (Tahoes, Yukons and Escalades) are manufactured to support 50...

    Picking this up on Monday 2021 Tahoe Z71

    Another 2021 Z71 and C7 owner!! We know how to pick them; they seem to go together well!! :-)

    Order to Delivery Timeframes

    According to the GM Corporate Newsroom, as of December 3, 2020, the Arlington, TX plant is producing 1200 vehicles (Tahoes, Suburbans, Yukons and Escalades) a day. That's a lot of vehicles, but that's to meet worldwide production requirements too, but 6-9 months still seems like a long wait. I...

    It’s Here!

    Agree; I remember it on all my new car purchases as well. It's just part of the "Exterior New Car Smell." Just turned over 253 miles and still noticed it today after I got out in the garage.

    2021 Tahoe Z71 - FINALLY

    Again, good luck and an early Happy B-Day!! Well, I'm sure you'll find one in your area eventually. Too bad you're not in the OKC area; this one was my other choice parked next to mine. https://www.frontierchev.com/VehicleDetails/new-2021-Chevrolet-Tahoe-4WD_Z71-El_Reno-OK/4684987833 My...

    2021 Tahoe Z71 - FINALLY

    So glad to hear you were able to get the refund from Costco!! So sorry about all the confusion. I sure didn't want to steer a fellow VietVet (Cam Ranh Bay '69-'70) in the wrong direction!! Yeah, once you start looking at these vehicles they seem to take over your mindset and then dealing with...

    2021 Tahoe Z71 - FINALLY

    Oh man, I'm really sorry. I've been a member for a little over a year and just never paid attention to that stipulation. Maybe they can refund it if you explain the circumstances??

    2021 Tahoe Z71 - FINALLY

    Personally I think the $60 membership fee to Costco to get the $1000 dollar discount is worth it. Besides, when you are new member, they give you a bunch of deals that could absorb the membership cost in the end. We rarely go to ours, since we really don't need to buy in bulk, but they do have...

    2021 Tahoe Z71 - FINALLY

    I hear ya. I really loved my 2004 Z71 and when the 2007 Z71 first came out, I wasn't so sure I'd like it, but it didn't take long and I was hooked!! Now I was hooked again!!! It shouldn't take long for you... :-)

    2021 Tahoe Z71 - FINALLY

    Cosmetically, everything (which includes the grill and Skid Plate) is the same. What you don't have with the "Z71 Signature Package" that you get with the Z71 Off-Road Package" is the "Adaptive Air-Ride Suspension" that allows you to raise the vehicle height to gain the higher off-road...

    2021 Tahoe Z71 - FINALLY

    Yeah, they don't offer the "Z71 Signature Package" anymore. It couldn't be ordered after September 17th, 2020. I guess that unless you dug into each of the items included closely, it was confusing a lot of people on what they thought they were getting. The "Z71 Off-Road Package" is the more...

    2021 Tahoe Z71 - FINALLY

    I think the Z71 is the nicest looking version too. When I first saw the "Empire Beige Metallic," especially in the sunlight, I knew that was the color for me. With the Z71 Signature Package, Second Row Power Bucket seats, 1st and 2nd Row All Weather Floor Mats, and Wheel Locks, the MSRP was...

    Discounts and Rebates

    Just bought Tahoe Z71 on 11/19 and got $3385 off MSRP for the Military Veteran discount and another $1000 off with a Costco promotion going on right now. Some dealers are also offering a "Trade Assistance" if you're trading in a 2008 or newer with under 120,000 miles and another called...

    2021 Denali Assist Handle

    I thought this to be strange, so I took a look at pics of the Tahoe "High Country" which I thought was the Chevy version of the Denali and they do have the handle on the A pillar!! However, I see the Denali does have that speaker, thus no way to swap out with those that don't have the speaker there.

    Check reverse lamp

    Picked up my Tahoe Z71 on Thursday and noticed the same thing when I got home and shut it off; didn't think much of it at the time. Thanks for the FYI. Keep us posted if you find out anything more. Hopefully it's just a software glitch and now that this vehicle has the "Over-the-Air" software...

    2021 Tahoe Z71 Climate Control Question

    No, there are also controls on the back of the center console storage. You can use the lockout feature in the dash display though if needed.

    2021 Tahoe Z71 Climate Control Question

    Finally figured it out after looking more closely at the "Getting To Know Your 2021 Tahoe & Suburban" pamphlet that comes with the Owners Manual. If you look closely at the control description in this pamphlet (not in the Owners Manual this way), it says "Rear Display." So I pushed it and the...

    2021 Tahoe Z71 Climate Control Question

    Just got this baby last Thursday and have a question about the function of these 2 buttons (red arrows) in the climate control pic below. I've read the owners manual several times now and can't find anything detailed on how they are used. The one on the left is marked "REAR ON/OFF" which is...

    2018 Nav System Map Update Question

    Just joined this forum, so if this has been discussed, I apologize. I purchased a used 2016 Yukon Denali in November 2017 and decided to purchase the newly released "2018 Navigation System Map Update" from "gmnavdisc.com" part number 84360074. I followed the instructions to-the-letter and the...
