NO DISCOUNT here in suburban Philadelphia (pun intended).
 
Today, I was "offered' full list, no discount, take-it-or-leave-it. Cash, no trade. All the options you listed, in an LTZ for $53,790.
 
I left it. Here's why, and it was a tough call.
 
Who at GM came up with the new second-row seats that flip up to block 50% of the doorway on each side? That means anything large (cargo, that is...not fat person) HAS to be loaded from the rear gate, rather than through the side doors.
 
I guess GM is trying to cater more to the passenger use rather than as a cargo carrier.
 
My 2004 Z71 Suburban has a flat cargo area from the liftgate to the front seats. Remove the 3rd seat, fold the second row bench down. Very sweet. Room for two 8' kayaks piggyback INSIDE and loads of gear.
 
Bottom line: I was totally bummed to have to pass the '07 up, even at full list. IMHO, at that price there is no need to give up so much utility space in exchange for all the great goodies GM has packed into the new model. Why not have both?
 
The salesperson said, "Take out the 2nd and 3rd row seats completely."
 
And then what? Furnish the kids' rooms with them?? Stuff the dangling heater wires and flipper wires under the carpet??
 
I'm hoping the 2008 goes back to fold-flat-and-away second row seats, but I'm not holding my breath.
 
Looks like the Suburban has shed its traditional dual role of utility AND passenger vehicle.

Good suggestion...
 
Some of the options piggy-back 'must adds' to the sticker, but I'll sharpen my pencil and see if I can trim some of the window sticker fat.

You can add leather to the LS model either from the factory or at the time of sale. My dealer quoted me $1300 and said the shop they used did a better job and used better leather than the factory...and the warranty was better too. The ones I have seen locally all looked great.

Good Deal? by rockman59

I just purchased an '06 Suburban, 4 x 4, Silver Birch, LS, with 14,000 miles on it...leather, and a ton of other options but no rear DVD or navigation. Came from the local Chev dealer and is "certified" with extra warranty, etc. The vehicle is flawless and can't be told from new....not a mark. I paid $29,900 plus tax and license. Was this a good deal?

Well, we bought ours in (3/31) almost April. It already has almost 6,000 miles on it, we do have the Z71 off road package with almost every available option, (yes, DVD ent. and NAV, sunroof, etc.) but we paid $45,000. We got 0.0% financing, (yay!) but we've only made two payments. It could easily be argued that you got a better deal. (You could after market the NAV which we love having) So, when the finance incentives come out on the 07's , you could actually afford to benefit with your '06, we'll have to wait not to go broke on that deal......We'll prob. keep this 'till it dies..........

Looking at an 06 LS, 4wd, with 11k miles on it, GM certified used. Average equipment(no DVD, cloth interior)Carfax report says it was a rental for 6 months. Dealer asking 27,500 (or so).
In Northern CA
I've been trying to go through the other posts, seems like some folks have a few problems, but others are pretty happy with their trucks, right?
any thoughts?
thanks
