Replying to: reggie6 (Sep 13, 2007 12:37 pm) Don't know about the Denalis but my Tahoe rear A/C can be operated from the front by punching the Aux button. Not sure why it's not called rear A/C. The rear controls can also be operated by rear passengers. "I find this system to be inaccurate except to see if something big is behind you." My shows almost straight down behind me. Can see the hitch ball. Makes hooking up a breeze. "have no idea how much gas you have left." Doesn't the Denali have the DIC? Mine tells me how many gallons I've used which subtracted from 26, tells me what's left. This assumes zeroing out when filling. I agree that the gauges are hard to read in the daytime, especially with sunglasses. Also don't care for the non-flat load floor but since I put a console between the second row seats, it's a moot point. And for blckislandguy, I routinely pull my jet ski up a very steep, algae covered ramp in 4WD on my 20s with no problem.

Family Car (that parking brake thing) You may want to take this to Stop here! Let's talk about brakes. You'll get more responses and we won't bore the Tahoe owners to tears.

I had the tires rotated this week so reviewed and followed the instructions verbatim on relearning the system with the new tire positions. It ended up with the display telling me that I need to Service the Tire Monitor System, and a bunch of -- where the tire pressures use to be. Has anyone else experienced problems when getting the system to relearn the the tire positions? No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't get the horn to beep for all 4 tires. Some attempts, I could get 1 or 2 tires acknowledged, but on most attempts, it would refuse to recognize 2 or even 1 tire.

Hello all, I had my first experience with the new blades disappearing off my Denali. Got in the car, went to wash the windshield and no left blade. As many of you know these are (were)a proprietary design and could only be purchased at a GM dealer. List price is $29.00 each! Trico now makes a replacement and it's their number 22-13 (Carquest 22-513), and the price is $16 each. It fits right in, but the snap retention is just as weak as the OEM unit. To fix, I drilled holes thru the metal arm from the underneath side, into the plastic blade unit, and fastened with a S.S. screw. Joe |

Replying to: 73shark (Sep 13, 2007 6:35 pm) The Aux button on my Tahoe will match the rear AC to the same settings as the driver's AC. I personally like my setting around 65 degrees and I like my kids to be set at about 71 to 72 degrees. The only way to have the temp different in the rear than the front is to access the rear control panel for the AC. Doesn't the Denali have the DIC? Mine tells me how many gallons I've used which subtracted from 26, tells me what's left. This assumes zeroing out when filling. I utilize the information in the DIC as well. However, I found that it can be up to 2 gallons off from what I've actually used. Meaning it says I've used 22 and I've actually used 24 gallons. It averages about 1 gallon off, so I it can be relied on as long as I get gas by the time it says I've used 23 gallons.

It also has 6 cd changer, 4WD, rear park assist & adjustable pedals. MSRP 41,324, asking price on the window 34K. I believe this to be an "aged" vehicle, is there any way to know for sure? How do I know if the 34K window price includes the 2K current rebate & the 3K aged rebate? This is a dealer demo, supposedly driven by a manager back & forth to work. It's never been titled. So if it's been in an accident, I'm guessing no one would have had to report that, right? Anyway to be sure it's not been in an accident? And lastly, what do you think is a reasonable price for this? I don't know how to figure out the invoice price. If I ask the dealer, they'll probably just show me a fake invoice. I'm guessing they keep those on file for just that purpose. Plus there's holdbacks & incentives to consider for the dealer. I see this as essentially a used 1 year old vehicle w/6000m. I'm thinking $28-29K. Thoughts? It's only an LT1, so it doesn't have a ton of bells & whistles, but that's cool w/me.

Replying to: zoesam (Sep 20, 2007 6:01 pm) For a comparitive reference point, I just bought a new 2007 Suburban LTZ two weeks ago. -> 49,390 MSRP -> 45,202 Discounted vehicle to -> -8,117 Tradein, which is "overallocated" by at least 2K. I had my trade valued independantly at CarMax and other dealers, and NADA. Carmax was at 3500, other dealers offered 4000 and 5000. This dealership had offered 6000 to do the deal, and then after negotiations raised it up to over 8K. No way my vehicle was worth 8K, so the overallocation of additional discount is at least 2-3K. -> 37,084 Net Taxable -> 1,112 Tax -> 55 Tag -> 248 Admin/Dealer Doc -> 38,500 Total Due -> -2,000 2007 vehicle rebate (to dealer) -> -3,000 Mfg date prior 2/15/07 rebate (to dealer) -> 33,500 Net Due at closing So on a new 49,390 vehicle, they discounted it by 11-12K (4188 + 2000or3000 + 5000) = 22+% off Your deal for a used vehicle with MSRP 41,324 is 34000 or 7324 off = 18% I was at a different dealership which had offered 11K off of a 48K MSRP vehicle (no trade involved, but included the 5K rebates), but I didn't like the color/options of that vehicle. I'm inclined to think you could do much better with a new 2007 vehicle. I'm assuming the 5K rebates are available on Tahoe's also. Since your trim level is simpler, the 5K rebate on a lesser MSRP vehicle is a larger %.
