    Offline maps keep getting deleted

    I’ve noticed the same thing, every few days I’d see the notification that it was downloading offline maps. I even tried downloading a huge chunk like an hour in every direction of me to try to reduce the need for on demand map downloads, but still I get notifications of downloading offline maps...

    Adaptive Cruise and Lane Keep Assist stopped working? 2022 Denali 6.2

    A message would come up on the dash showing adaptive cruise was on every time you set the cruise control. If your window sticker shows adaptive then you have it, it’d be listed under Advanced Technology Package. They wouldn’t have just left it out if it’s supposed to have it per the sticker. It...

    2023 GMC Yukon is here (official website updated)

    Its weird, they rearranged a few buttons in that climate control area. They replaced the "AC" button with the heated steering wheel button, and they removed the "Sync" button on the passenger side temp controls with "AC" which is a really odd place for that one. I also cant tell if its the...

    2023 GMC Yukon is here (official website updated)

    I'm all for the improved sound system, its amazing how lackluster the '22 Denali system is currently. I really wanted an Escalade for the sound and the better seats/massaging. If they didnt have a $25k market adjustment at the time, I would have grabbed one for those features. I'll re-evaluate...

    Tire odd color

    Almost looks like circular brush strokes. I live on a gravel road/driveway and don’t have any discoloration markings on the tires.

    Tire odd color

    Did you ever use any tire shine? On my Acadia after the ‘shine’ wore off, the tires have a reddish discoloration

    Mud Guards - WeatherTech or Husky?

    Luckily my weathertech's lined up, cause I'm terrible at improvising and I'm not at all mechanically skilled. The fronts gave me the most "trouble" just with torquing the furthest bolts trying to get around the tires (even with the wheel turned) but overall took me an hour or less. After a few...

    Gas prices making anyone reconsider?

    And here in Northern Georgia, prices have been going down. I just paid $4.09 for Super today, Regular hovering between $3.50 and $3.60. For some odd reason, Diesel jumped between $4.95 and $5.05.

    Water Spots on ceramic coating

    Yeah I've seen the Adam's stuff, I use the Chemicals Guys Honeydew High Foam Car Wash, it's PH Neutral and is supposed to be safe for ceramic coated and uncoated cars. Smells really nice too. I have a large microfiber drying towel and try to dry it off quick.

    Water Spots on ceramic coating

    My '22 Denali came ceramic coated from the dealership and noticed right away it had a crazy problem getting water spots especially on the hood and front windshield. When I got the truck tinted the guys were amazed how bad it looked. My '20 Acadia Denali isn't coated, and is parked right along...

    Expedition vs Yukon

    The first time my ‘20 Sierra was in for service, at the purchasing dealer, they accidentally broke the steering column when changing the plastic shroud that was defective from the plant. They had no loaners, but they had no choice and they went to enterprise down the block and get us a loaner...

    Expedition vs Yukon

    I can rant about the two different Hyundai dealers Ive dealt with all day, and I seem to rant about them frequently. They are the epitome of “car dealership” stereotypes. The quality of their product does not make up for the experience, yet. I’m also honestly not a fan of their new styling. I...

    Expedition vs Yukon

    After owning a Genesis G80 Sport for several years, I could not in good conscious tell someone to go out and get one yet. The car was cool as hell, really liked it, but the dealer and service networks were still Hyundai, and terrible. I tried on several occasions to use that service valet only...

    What am I doing wrong?

    Mine fold every time with the remote and when I press the buttons outside the door. If you’re locking from inside the car, isn’t it just easier to hit the mirror fold button too?

    How do I test drive

    I got lucky, I saw a few Yukons at my normal dealer's website so I took a chance and drove over there since I had to go to that town anyway. I get there and talk to the salesman and they had none available, everything was presold but I was told I can look/sit in a Denali that just got prepped...

    What's Wrong With Your Yukon/Tahoe Today? ...And How Long Has This Been Happening?

    Only issue so far, and its a super small annoyance. Randomly happened twice: Music volume (either XM or Bluetooth) won't change with the volume knob. It changes navigation volume (I dont have navigation destination set), I had to set a destination, wait for the directions to talk, and quickly...

    Really disappointed with GMC Adaptive Cruise and HUD’s posted speed limit feature

    Speed limit was hit and miss the first few days I had my Yukon. First of all, make sure you have onstar setup and that they activated the 3 years connected services for vehicles with google onboard. This is a free service for Denali/AT4. They'll also usually throw in another month or two of the...

    2022 Yukon Denali: Dealer Markup?

    I got stuck with a high market adjustment for mine, and a transportation fee since I ordered several hours away. I called dealerships for weeks and found none that were selling in transit trucks at MSRP and 99% of them had everything presold, almost got bait and switched at one localish in state...

    2022 Escalade Sport - Youtube Review

    Augmented reality map overlay, which admittedly looks amazing but I can imagine it being super distracting. If the market adjustments weren’t out of this world insane on Escalades, I might have grabbed one

    What did you do to your 21+ T1XX today?

    Got my Yukon Denali tinted today. Tinted the fronts with 3M ceramic tint to match the factory tint on the rear, and tinted rear quarter windows and back glass with 15% on top of factory tint to give more privacy and heat rejection. Also got panoramic sunroof tinted with 40% 3M crystalline for...

    Soft/Smooth Ride?

    Anecdotal, but I’m the opposite actually, I never had a Michelin tire I liked. My 3 Acuras had them, high performance low profile high speed rating. Terrible ride quality/sound/tread life but that’s mostly expected for sports tires. Our Acadia has Michelin and it’s ohhhkay so far, ride noise...

    2022 Yukon XL Cargo Liner

    I just wish it was a 2 part and not a 3 part. I honestly don’t mind the Velcro (so far). I don’t like the gap between the seats and I don’t like ’regular’ cargo piece being separate. I might grab a weather tech since my 3rd row will very rarely see the light of day.

    How happy are you with your 2021/22 Tahoe/Yukon?

    I trade every few years, I think the longest I've lasted since 2006 has been 3.5 years. Shortest was 6 months and was the first (used) car I ever purchased, and I somehow got out of it without losing money. I gave leasing a try for two of my Genesis G80s and having zero positive equity at the...

    Refund on cancelled order

    I had to sign a form stating my deposit was non-refundable. Ironically, the dealer forgot to apply this deposit to my purchase and they wound up refunding my credit card deposit anyway. Out of the ten or so dealers I called, I only found 2 GMC dealers in Virginia that didn’t require deposits...

    Refund on cancelled order

    I found that a ton of dealers I talked to were forcing non refundable deposits and blamed the fact that people were putting deposits on multiple vehicles and just buying whichever showed up first. I call BS because all of the dealers kept saying “put a deposit down now or the car will sell...
