    Constraints Driven by Chevy Truck Month?

    I live around the Flint, Mi. area where the HD pickup is built, Gm still has several lots full around town full of trucks waiting for microchips and other parts. I don't see the numbers on these lots getting any smaller. Some of these trucks are the $70,000+ Denalis just sitting in fields

    Anybody else get the 20s on their Denali?

    I wanted to keep the shipping wheels that came on my Yukon, they would have made a nice rim for winter tires.

    Anybody else get the 20s on their Denali?

    No matter what size, 20 or 22, I think some of the wheels available hurt the look of these vehicles. No, I'm not a fan of the roller skate look either.

    Expedition vs Yukon

    My choice today if I was looking for a small car might be a Japanese car, they might not be the sharpest looking but they are built to last. The Japanese take pride in their quality and workmanship of their vehicles. It would be an easy choice over some of these electric cars on the road.

    Anybody else get the 20s on their Denali?

    In my opinion, there are no nice looking 20' wheels for the Yukon, they look like something that would come on a silverado. GM needs to redesign their wheels to keep up with the good looks of their premium trucks and SUVs.

    Expedition vs Yukon

    The Japanese SUVs, big and small, are no comparison to the American made models. The styling doesn't catch my eye at all, some models are just plain ugly.

    A friend of mine had to replace one of the fuel pumps on a 6.6L duramax, cost him over $1400.

    I had a 26 gal tank on my '19 XL, on a trip to Florida it reduced my fuel stops. Even back in 2020 it seemed expensive to fill that tank

    Expedition vs Yukon

    Wow, that'll add another $20 for a fill up nowadays, but that 6.4L doesn't get the greatest gas mileage.

    I've seen one of these in camo driving around my area lately.

    Expedition vs Yukon

    Last summer I talked to a dealer about trading in a '19 Yukon XL to buy a '21 XL and after the salesman had a discussion with his manager they told me it would be hard to sell at current times, and I was offered $1000 more than what I owed. I sold it privately in 2 days to a dealer who came up...

    Once your car is delivered to the dealer, when do they typically have you come by to sign and then leave with your new car?

    Luckily I had 2 in-transit Yukons held at 2 different dealers and decided to pass on this dealers sale, the dealer I purchased from just took a credit card number for a hold, no credit check needed.

    ‘22 Tahoe LT - 5.3L - Normal Oil consumption?

    I've gotten my oil changes done by the dealer for a long time now with Dexos oil at 6000 miles, ever since being told by some rookie lube tech that transmission fluid swells as it breaks down. I trust the dealer will stand behind their work if problems arise. I have the oil changed in my...

    I've been interested in the AT4 pick up and saw a nice one on the used side of the dealer lot, I could have gotten a new one for the price on the window. Looks like I'll wait a while.

    That's exactly what he told me, they didn't want their time wasted by someone who couldn't get financed.

    I also asked the guy to try GM financial because they had some incentive at the time, not as good as now though. I had good rates with GMAC in the past.

    Finally finished 22 Tahoe RST Mods...

    The darkened tail lights look much better than the old velcro-on ones, did you darken the 3rd brake light?

    Concerns with RST Running Boards

    Are you talking about the fixed running board? I have the fixed and I like them, they feel solid when you step on them. The bad thing is it seems like they are always dirty (the step surface I mean).

    Once your car is delivered to the dealer, when do they typically have you come by to sign and then leave with your new car?

    Don't be rushed by the sales/finance people when signing the paperwork. When buying my Yukon I told the finance guy that I had a credit union I wanted him to call, instead he tried to set me up with his bank at 4.8%. After a talk with the sales manager my credit union was called and I got a...

    Expedition vs Yukon

    I saw a Grand Wagoneer on a lot for $111,000. For that money I'd rather have an Escalade with the diesel, the 6.4L in the Jeep gets terrible gas mileage.

    One dealer I spoke with wanted to check your credit to make sure you could get financing before he would reserve you one that was in transit.

    What oil brand & type is GM putting in our 5.3L SUVs?

    One of the local dealers had a separate oil change facility just next to their service dept. The service there was terrible, long waits, oily hand prints all over the paint, not doing a complete job. Finally the dealer closed it down and moved everything to the service dept. and now the work...

    2022 Yukon XL Cargo Liner

    I've had a Husky liner in a '19 XL and I currently have a Weathertech in a '21 XL, I liked the Husky because it was more rubbery but it was smooth on the bottom and would slide back and the liftgate wouldn't close. The Weathertech is a little more stiffer plastic and only moves a little bit. I...

    Gas prices making anyone reconsider?

    Who has more cargo space, the XL or the fury's trunk. My buddies was a burgundy color with white vinyl interior.

    Gas prices making anyone reconsider?

    A friend of mine once had a Sport Fury convertible, don't remember what year though. He also had a '70 Road Runner with a air grabber hood, those were the good ole days.
