I have 2 Tahoe’s now. The lease is up on one and would like less of a payment, if I wasn’t losing that much. Towing is not an issue, only needs to carry mysel, wife and dog for the most part.
Maybe I’m a little off in my calculations but the lease price between the 2 should be 100-150 difference. Am I getting that much more for the 150$. Or is it overkill?

You’re probably getting the same or less with the Tahoe.

how so? have you seen the ALL NEW 2018 Traverse Premier or High Country?

Yes. I wouldn’t want to drive one as a loaner let alone rent one or own one...can’t get past the nose on it.

[ Sensitivity edit: the above is HYPERBOLE. the ALL NEW Traverse isn’t that bad. I’d obviously take it as a loaner. ]

There are SO MANY good vehicles out there in that price range. If you’re allowed to look outside GM my vote is do it (if you want something less $$$ than the Tahoe).

I like the look of the explorer. And it’s about the same size. I like the vw atlas too. It’s about the same size too. There are other options that are similar in size and cost.
I also like a Jeep gc and Dodge Durango. Hemis are appealing

I looked into the atlas one day at the dealership. I found the buttons inside were made for small, childlike, fingers. Plus while trying to recline the middle row seats, the handle broke off at the dealership....I tried fixing it but figured it was a omen and we left.

Just my experience.

In my opinion, Americans make the best body on frame full size SUVs, hands down. Reason being, they sell the most trucks, by a huge margin, and therefore have a lot of data and research based on those truck sales that get naturally applied to the SUVs that are based on those trucks.

However, if you’re stepping down to a car based SUV for any reason, then open up your search to include other makes, including Japanese and German. At least look at them so you can make an informed decision.

Well, do you want a truck or a minivan? A truck with body on frame construction that can go just about anywhere you point it in all climes or a unibody based on the Chevy Malibu with a V6?

Ohh and are you ok with a car not designed to shut off at every stop light shutting off at every stop light? The Traverse does get better gas mileage but not enough for me to choose it over the Tahoe.

The shutting off things kills the whole idea of launching when the light goes green. I hate it.
