    Surprising Nonchalance

    I started shopping for an escalade in 2021. And besides the fact that it was extremely difficult to find one on the lot, 80% of the dealers were very arrogant. They didn't return phone calls, and wouldn't agree msrp . I ended up buying a different car and then finally ordered the truck this...

    23 infotainment sound system sound take a step backward?

    People complain about the head rest speakers on the escalade forums. They're just there for ambience. If they played loudly people would probably go deaf lol. And trucks have been built with SC since October 3rd I believe.

    23 infotainment sound system sound take a step backward?

    Could be that the speakers are still tight in the 2023. After a few hours of playing, some speaker cones will loosen up and sound fuller and richer.

    2023 Yukon colors

    I took the plunge and got a darker color and I love it. Almost all my previous cars were whites and grays. It does get dirty faster and more prone to swirl marks.

    How long at Chicago Rail yard?

    Impossible to know. But it could be a long time with driver shortages.

    Those with 2023 orders and updates.

    Yup. Old builds can definitely get blocked in by recent builds.

    AKG 36 Speaker Stereo

    Nice color as well. I just had them installed last night so I have to return to the wheel shop today so they can knock back the fender liner a bit to reduce the rubbing in front.

    Dealer stated 6-8 wait for 23 Suburban LT

    Wait times are all over the place for GM trucks. Try contacting some other dealers and possibly put in more than one order and take whatever comes first.

    AKG 36 Speaker Stereo

    It sounds pretty good to me. I have the surround almost max and bass at +8. Give it a few days for the speakers to break in.

    Are we able to track vehicle shipping progress via VIN anymore?

    Dealer or GM chat.

    Midlothian to Possession

    That's how my delivery was. I called the dealer one weekend. They told me it was still at the factory and not ETA. About 5 days later, they called and told me it arrived at the dealer.

    Goodbye

    FWIW, message boards, Facebook groups, etc, seem to magnify problems with cars. I change cars frequently so I still read various forums of vehicles I used to own. Every vehicle/brand has problems. Especially luxury vehicles with lots of features. A lot of people come to forums to vent and ask...

    Midlothian to Possession

    I don't do a whole lot of highway driving so it doesn't bother me not to have it. On top of that, I trade in my vehicles every 1-2 years so whatever I get next will have something even better than SC.

    Good info. Thank you.

    Midlothian to Possession

    If I'm not mistaken, the dealer has the option to enter a phone number for text updates. Seek to 2:40

    Catback performance exhaust - review

    Sidenote: if anyone has drone with the dealer installed exhaust, I'd recommend getting the exhaust inspected by a muffler shop. I've heard a story of someone's exhaust falling off on the freeway. A lot of dealer techs may not have the experience of installing a cat back and their could be leaks...

    Catback performance exhaust - review

    I have the borla aka GM performance exhaust on my lade. No drone. Based on reviews I thought it wouldn't be loud enough but it's perfectly fine for me. It's very tolerable around town and has a good volume at wot. I've had a muffler delete on a Corvette and I definitely didn't want anything...

    Load index

    If two tires of different brands are the same size, but have different load index, does that mean the tire with the higher load index use a stiffer sidewall or just general stiffer construction?

    Air conditioning vent placement

    Worst case scenario, you have to get the sunroof tinted. I had it done in a previous vehicle and I could leave the shade open year round. I used 20% ceramic tint.

    Anyone else with a TPW of 7/18?

    I would test drive the navigator and at least see if you like it. Maybe try to stall them with the, "I'll think about it" until the Yukon comes in.

    Interior pics?

    I've even had dye transfer on red leather. But i usually wear raw or very dark denim when i do wear jeans.

    Those with 2023 orders and updates.

    All brands are going through the same thing. As a matter of fact, Toyota sales declined almost 20% compared to last year because of the chip shortage. My previous car, a Mercedes, had a missing standard feature as well...

    Interior pics?

    I have beige interior in my Escalade. I would recommend putting down a towel when you wear jeans or least giving it a good wipe down before the dye sets in.

    That's a long wait. Congrats.

    I don't even think my salesperson knew how to send an email. He texted a pic of the credit app. Then I had to figure out how to fill it in from my phone lol. Have you tried reaching out to the sales manager?
