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

I really think the front of the new Lincoln Navigator is nice looking, especially in black with the chrome. Too bad the rear doesn't look as good. Not a big fan of the side view of the Waggoneer/Grand Waggoneer, either. The big GM SUV, no matter which model top the list in looks, IMHO.

Lincoln Navigator is a very nice looking car, but that’s in the Escalade territory for pricing. And I think the Escalades are really Nice as well.

I’ve heard Jeeps are nightmares in the long term…and I don’t know how I’d feel being the Guinea pig with their new full size introductory Wagoneer

It already has for used 1/2 ton based full size SUVs on the wholesale market compared to 6 months ago based on Manheim auction prices. The profit from flipping these vehicles isn't worth the risk of carrying these in inventory as it was 6 months ago.

Don’t agree

Don’t agree

So we are going to disagree on whether average wholesale prices for used 1/2 ton based full size SUVs is decreasing for auction venues like Manheim?

I am 99.99% sure the interior and space inside the new Tahoe and Yukon are identical.

That’s not what I meant. Styling, all LED’s, etc is why I will not go back to a Tahoe.

I prefer the exterior of the Tahoe over the Yukon. Don't really care for the interiors of either except for the Denali hopefully the mid cycle refresh makes them easier to look at.

I ran some errands earlier today in the yukon and for some reason your comment popped into my head and I just couldn't help but think what's not to like in here? Everything is clean and laid out well, the finishes/materials are really nice, there's no gross fake looking plastic "wood" trim like models of the past. The only negative I see in the interior is the gigantic infotainment screen and the ridiculous ones hanging off the backs of the seats, but that's just the times we live in. I'd be much happier with no screens at all

Yes I agree with you, I like the interior of the yukon. The front screen is a little misplaced, seems like a last minute decision. The rest of the dash is nice but I think the leather seats could have been a little nicer, have you seen some of the other OEM seats, much more detail and stitching.

Isn’t the point of Manheim to have the opportunity to buy a used car cheaper than you would at a dealer? What’s to stop dealers from then selling them at a ridiculous markup again?

Another dealer in the same geographic region selling a similar product at a lower price because said dealer either bought it for a lower price than a competing dealer or said dealer willing to accept a lower profit than the competing dealer.

It's not bad but it isn't good either compared to the Denali. And the only colors are black and pumpkin, $70,000 and the only colors are black and pumpkin.

I guess this whole notion of cheaper prices is region specific. I’m in Tri-State (NY/NJ/CT) and there is price gouging for both new and used cars. New models are being sold $10k over MSRP by most dealers. Used cars are going for more than MSRP. If anything, a dealer buying it cheaper at auction will just net them more profit selling it on their lot. I am not in a market where it’s good to be the nice guy - these dealers are ruthless at turning as much profit as they can because demand is high and inventory is super low
