Yukon seems to have a few more standard features, like the third row seat, locking rear diff. Things may be different now, but when we compared our 2005 Yukon XL to the Suburban, we went with GMC because Chevy packaged the options together including some things we didn't really want.
 
I guess GMC believes they have some prestige people will pay for as well. I didn't care one way or the other, but going with GMC, with our specific features, actually saved a couple hundred bucks over a similarly equipped Chevy.
 
I guess the moral of the story is make sure you are really comparing apples to apples. You'll find their trim levels and standard equipment and MSRPs overlap a few times. Also, note that when you go to "build your own", at least in my zip code, the MSRP listed for the GMC is less than on the "compare models" page. And there is a substantial rebate on the GMC that makes it even better.
 
And of course you have to find the invoice prices and go to a dealer who is willing to negotiate, etc., etc. All that after finding the exact vehicle you want without any extra stuff. I'm willing to bet that you'd get pretty much the same real world transaction price on identically-equipped Tahoes and Yukons, so just decide which face you like better, and take it from there.

I would've thought the same thing... But when I bought my Tahoe this summer, I built it online to the specs. I wanted. I then faxed it and emailed it to all of the local Chevy and GMC dealers to provide quotes. Turned out the invoice price was much cheaper from Chevy for the same specs. I'm prolly one of the few people to fully load an LT2 and not go to the LT3...

Has anyone had a problem removing the "Flex Fuel", "Tahoe" and "LTZ" tags from their 2007 Tahoe?
 
I like the vehicle, however am not a big fan of the markings.
 
Any experiences / advice is appreciated.
 
Thanks,
 
Bill

These are normally applied with 3M commercial grade double sided tape.. Take a hair dryer on high heat and hold it as close as possible and heat the entire emblem until very warm.. then take a plastic kitchen spatula or something that won't sratch the paint and gently pry it loose while still warm.. Clean up any residue with Goo Gone. You can even pour a little Goo Gone around the emblem if its really stubborn.. You might also want to hold a thin soft cloth over the edge of spatula for extra protection from scratching. The Goo Gone won't hurt the paint its just some type of oil. Good Luck !!

I did what seabyrd suggests using the hairdryer and goo gone. Instead of a spatula I used fishing line after heating the tape behind the emblem. Used it like dental floss and just moved it up and down as I slid it between the emblem and the truck. Once the emblems and letters were off used the goo gone to remove the rest of the stuff. Just keep at it, can take alot of patience to get the residue off. I have no emblems or letters at all and love the look

I took mine to a body shop to have my gold bowtie removed from the back and the emblems taken off. It was $120 for all. They had to take off the piece that the bowtie is fastened to and fill the holes and then repaint it. It looks GREAT!! Well worth the money. No lettering or emblems looks sleek. No bowtie makes ties the whole look together. In the past, my dad has used the hairdryer and fishing line with great success. But hey, I'm a girl!!

Honeycomb Grill? by chile96

Anybody know where I can get the chrome honeycomb grill? I've seen it on a few tahoes so I think it may be a factory option with a bunch of other chrome stuff(door handles, side view mirrors) but all I'm interested in is the two grill pieces. My current one has chrome trim but the honeycomb is black. See below for pics:

I believe this may be what you are looking for >>> http://gmaccessoriesstore.com/grille-package-chrome-surround-silver-grille-bowti- e-logo-p-1611.html
 
There are options to match the grill to the paint color on your Tahoe, or you can purchase the chrome one.
 
The version you show in the picture above looks like the LTZ Chrome package that includes door handles, grill and mirror covers.
 
Good luck.
