Replying to: hardin_thicke (Feb 05, 2007 5:59 pm) However, did you say that you ordered more features on the truck because of the original great price? I personally think its a little unfair that you ordered extra because of the price you were given just to find out its almost $3000 more than they said. But mistakes do happen. But there is one thing I can say... I hope you like yours as much as I like mine. Now that I have my tahoe I hate driving my wife's infiniti which is supposed to be a higher end car. Good luck and happy driving... |

Replying to: blckislandguy (Feb 03, 2007 6:52 pm) Not sure from your post what I have overlooked about pointing out the positive experience that I have had with my 07 Yukon to tyresmoker? I have always had a pleasurable experience buying both my Denali's and my Corvette from GM dealerships. The service has always been good. (Does a limo pick me up and take me to the office....no but I will live.) Maybe you have had a different type of experience with your Tahoe\Yukon at your local GM dealership. If so, please share your experience with us. I know from a previous post on Feb 2, 2007 you mentioned you had a F150 Supercab. I do however, must disagree with your characterization that anyone looking to purchase a Range Rover or a Tahoe LTZ is both pompous and racist (wouldn't hire a migrant workers). Those unflattering characteristics are widespread and unfortunately can be found in someone shopping at the John Deere, Saturn, Mercedes, Ferrari or Dunkin Donuts. I am sure that you meant to convey something different when you typed that paragraph than what I took away from it. Anyone of us can pick people out of the general public at the businesses that we frequent and find inept people that we would never hire.....GM dealerships do not have a racket on these people (unfortunately these people are everywhere so we must deal with it). The same can be said for a rude person that treats you badly whether it is in person or on the phone. All businesses have them. Waiting for service? Almost no one could tell you with a straight face that they love waiting in line FOR ANYTHING. If I am driving an 07 Range Rover and take it in for service at the dealership, there could very well be an 04 Freelander in front of me getting service.....and I would have to wait. I would just have to deal with the fact that they beat me there. Your statement on the Escalade? I am not sure about your locale, but most of the people that I see driving Escalades are suburban soccer moms. Come to think of it....many of them are also wearing really nice gold chains.....because they can afford it.....like the Escalade. The 20' wheels. Your statement was valid on the older body style Yukon\Tahoe...20'+ wheels without any additional modifications would beat you to death. However with the new body style.....it's night and day difference. With my 07 I ordered the 20' wheel option and I am very happy that I did. The ride quality & handling are excellent with the 20' wheels even after 7500 miles. So make some time to go to a different GM dealership than what you have previously dealt with and talk with the general manager and tell him of your previous experience and I am sure he will put you with a dedicated salesperson to help address your needs. While you are there, drive a new Yukon\Tahoe with 20' wheels and see what you think.

Replying to: valvestud (Feb 05, 2007 2:24 pm) That exhaust is really cool isn't it.....It will make you a believer. Look at getting the power running boards....I love mine....well worth the wait when I ordered it. MPG....I have the regular Denali and I am also consistently getting 13-14 with a lot of stop and go daily traffic. I also have a pretty heavy foot and tend to 'get on it' to hear the exhaust. On the one long trip that I have taken so far....16-18 was my avg. Good luck with your decision.

Replying to: rhame13 (Feb 05, 2007 10:21 pm) As far as the Tahoe pricing mistake...Didn't you build and price your car online through the GM supplier site? If so, didn't you notice the price descrepency when you talked to your dealer? If so, why didn't you question it then? If not, perhaps better preparation on your behalf would have avoided the situation that you are presently in...The term "buyer beware" comes to mind.. Thanks for posting the real world mileage figures..they do not seem too bad...

Replying to: tyresmoker (Feb 06, 2007 8:22 am) No. I wasn't aware of a build program on the supplier site. We used the GM dealers' site for building the vehicle. Apparently there's a bug in the program that is not including the LT3 option price. "If so, didn't you notice the price descrepency when you talked to your dealer?" No. I was sitting side by side my salesman going thru the build. The price doesn't tally until the end so there's no way of seeing if an option doesn't add to the price. "If not, perhaps better preparation on your behalf would have avoided the situation that you are presently in..." Situation? It's $2,800 dollars, not $28,000, and far from a "situation" I'd say. Let me state again that I'm not interested in taking something that I didn't pay for. I'm only interested in making sure that a)they're not taking something from me that they shouldn't, and b)I'm getting my supplier discount for the LT3 option, and I am.
