Thanks Dave....I would have gone on for years quietly complaining to myself about that one. I didn't realize it would do that. Another delightful suprise.....

Thanks 07denali for your experience and tips on dealing with plastic scratches in the trim. My 2002 Denali had a lot of power, and the 2007 is still so new (380 miles) that I am not ready to really get on it.
I hear you on the storage......
I have not heard the driveline clunk or the piston slap, but I will now be on the lookout for it.
DVD & CD...obviously a pain...does anyone know if there is an IPOD interface available yet? I know I can plug it in, but I want to use the stereo controls.
Floor mats....I want a thick carpeted mat, along with a cargo mat, and a full length mat for my bench 2nd row. however I ordered the Lloyds carpet sample from Stylin Concepts and the colors didn't match with the Ebony. Any suggestions?
Thanks

For the full length second row mat, go to USSpeedOnline for the CatchAll mats. My cashmere matches just perfect. They are custom made for your make and model. I also got the front mats and put them right over the stock mats. They are easily cleaned. The best price is here too.
I, too, could go on and on about how much I love my Tahoe. Such an improvement over my 03 Z71. This is my 4th Tahoe, and the best, by leaps and bounds. I'm willing to overlook any minor annoyance like lack of storage, no coin holder, or not being able to use the cd while my son uses the DVD (I listen to XM anyway)because there are so many improvements. Have fun!!

Go with tony20fan's suggestion. That's where I got my CatchAlls in the Avalanche-





 
I wanted black (figured that was what matched ebony), but their choices only go up to charcoal. So I called to place my order, and was told that charcoal is the right color. I also verified that if they didn't match I could send them back for a full refund. Fortunately, as you can see, charcoal is what I needed, and what you want.

Thanks Jerry & Tony....I am ordering mine today.
Same as you, not sure if the charcoal would do it. But your pics say it all. Thanks again.

Thanks Steve,
I will check my email and make the edits. I was unaware of the policy but now that I know I will follow it. I am very happy with my 07 LT 3 w/ all the bells and whistles. But more importantly since I was on the sales side I really wantedd to share how great my dealer and salesman were. I know how hard it can be to deal with salesman and GSMs; so I was "completely satisfied" with my sales and delivery process. Any way I look forward to future post and continued use of the knowledge I find here. Thanks to all for the help so far.

Ok, So I clean out my 2003 Jeep Liberty LTD, which by the way treated me great in the 3 1/2 years I owned her, and pack everything up I want to move over to the new Tahoe. Get the Girlfriend and head over to the Dealer, Jim McKay
Chevrolet in Fairfax, VA. Once we arrive I am greeted by my salesman, he sits us down at his desk and gets me to fill in some info on my trade. He has another customer right now but starts the process of my trade evaluation anyway. I am so anxious I can't sit still and spend the next 45 min
pacing around the dealer floor or hanging out outside. All the while my girlfriend is busy working from her blackberry and papers she brought from the office. My salesman takes my Jeep for a drive and over to the Used car Dept. I inform
the GSM that the Jeep is actually in my girlfriend's name(speeding ticket last year forced me to "sell" it to her) and was this going to be a problem for trade in purposes. His reply was not a problem just we would have to buy it from her if she isn't on the title for the new one. So I talk it over with her and we agree to add her name to the new title, she wasn't paying anything so no sweat for her. My Salesman comes back we a number that is fair but a little low for trade and suggests we go to CarMax to sell if they are giving us a lot more. I had the trade appraised CarMax end of July for $1000 more than he was offering but also added 3000 mi since then. So it is now 6:45pm and I tell my Salesman ok we are heading
out there and will be back around 8:30 to finish the deal. He sighs and says "8:30?!?! Ok." To which I reply well look if you bump my trade by $500 I won't go. Now I sold cars and I know that my trade is worth more than either CarMax or
Dealer is giving; but both are fair offers, not insulting. So he "asks" the GSM and the GSM wants to get out earlier than later so he says, "Cowboy up lets get it done."
 
So, We finish the paperwork with my Salesman and he takes us to the FM and she says the the GSM told her to sell anything I want for $100 over cost. You know it is
nice when you don't have to bicker, banter, or argue over what is fair for all involved. So I got an extended 5y/75K mi warranty at a good price and they make a little money. I will recommend Jim McKay Chevrolet in Fairfax, VA to all.
 
My Salesman helps us move stuff over from the Jeep to the Tahoe when I discover that the cargo cover doesn't fit, he tries it and realizes it is for a Suburban not a
Tahoe. He says he is sorry and the guys in prep should have caught it; we agree on a "We OWE" sheet for a new one and everybody is again happy. I finish with a walk around and my Salesman is following me around with his hankerchief cleaning every spot I touch.
 
I show my Salesman how top operate the remote start on my Jeep, and he shows me how to operate the remote start onmy new Tahoe. I truely believe he wanted to see us happy and was thankful for our business.
 
So, I drove to work yesterday after spending 15min in our driveway just playing with her. What a dream to drive I can't wait to read every manual cover to cover. I kept my girlfriend up last night because I wanted to read the small feature booklet before I went to sleep.
 
With 80 miles on her I am very happy and am looking forward to installing the NAV/DVD bypass. Will update after that intstall and test.
