I was going to suggest a proper diet but you guys gave legit answers. I stand by my belief that this is the best automotive forum out there. Makes me want to buy another Tahoe/Yukon.
Same. Only one I've ever gotten. Third party warranties, from what I've been told, are not exactly going to act in your best interest.
And though I like the advice of saving for possible repairs, with modern vehicles you're approaching an amount that is high enough to actually cost you in the...
Therein lies the problem. If the customer is always right (continues to buy unreliable vehicles), then why change the formula? By lowering accepted standards we reinforce the lack of positive change. Whether the car/truck is 80% "good" is totally irrelevant. We're talking about $65K+...
Hate to read about all these issues. It's not just here, either. Man I wish I could find a pre-2006 Z71 Tahoe with about 20k miles. I'd pay a lot for it.
Holy fuck, man. We're going to have to start a money pool. Not for a new ride. Just to have someone come put you out of your misery. You are so much more tenacious than I.
Also keep in mind the math/logic at work here when discussing mileage as a metric for reliability. In 10 years some of these '15's may have 250k miles without many issues too.
On the surface it sounds like you made out like a bandit. Even if it has some mechanical issues that are less than catastrophic you came out good for $500 transportation.
Replying to an old post, and I'm sure I'm not telling you anything you don't already know, but assuming that Onstar area on the dash is inactive (I honestly don't know if it's still around), I highly recommend installing a little screen and backup camera wired to stay on while driving. Helps...
This is why I never do anything to a vehicle under warranty. I won't even do anything if someone at the dealership tells me it won't void it (unless it's in writing with the dealership's letterhead). Never give them a reason to deny coverage. That can be a gray area anyway, with the dealer...
When I saw the thread title I was reminded of countless "which oil" threads on various car forums over the years. While I don't expect it here, they usually devolve into idiotic debates on which oil is better. I just keep a dinosaur in the garage and have him shit in my engine every 5K miles.
Don't listen to the haters. Build this '15 up like it was a Wrangler and treat it as such. Just please keep a photo log for us when you're out on the trails having a few beers and decide to see how far you can max the travel out. Will be great meme material. ;)
I'm ashamed to admit that I haven't been keeping up with this thread like I should have. So I went back 30+ pages or so to get caught up.
Holy fuck. What a shit show. I'll keep it brief...
You're son has done you proud, I'm glad your shoulder is doing ok, and I'm very hopeful you get your...
There's a criminal lack of mods for this car. But still, even if there was anything available I'd pass. If you give a dealer ANY reason to dispute a warranty claim they'll take advantage of it then it just becomes a shitshow of epic proportions.
Man I'm always around. I lurk a lot to make sure everyone's behaving. My biggest complaint about my car is lack of exhaust note inside the cabin. I mean I love the isolation most of the time, but you can tell that engine has so much more to offer with regards to aural stimulation. Electronic...
