Dudes, keep it cool. There is a whole forum dedicated to domestic versus import and American loyalty. Try to keep this one on point and civil. You've all made your points, now let's just discuss the vehicle in question on its own merits. Replies to this message: tyresmoker (Feb 17, 2006 11:42 am) mjansen1 (Feb 17, 2006 8:37 pm)

#458 of 3125 Why is Tahoe out front of Yukon by sdron Feb 17, 2006 (2:41 pm)
I have been wondering lately especially with GMs problems, why is there a Chevy and a GMC brand? Wouldn't GM be better off and save money on everything, if they only had Chevy Tahoes or Chevy Silverados and not Yukons and Sierras too? I have never understood this logic. Can someone please explain?   But....since they do have both why is the Tahoe the front runner on all promotion and advertising? I have seen 2 commercials to date for the Yukon. One was on ESPN football and the other on Survivor last night, but have seen many Tahoe commercials.

Replying to: sdron (Feb 17, 2006 2:41 pm) I suppose the main reason for the Yukon is that it gives GM more stores selling the trucks. One disadvantage of having the two brands is that it lets Ford crow year after year that the F150 is the country's biggest selling truck. If you add Chevrolet and GMC sales together, they outsell Ford.

Replying to: sdron (Feb 17, 2006 2:41 pm) Too many brands is one of GMs big problems. Toyota has one minivan. They only have to engineer and market that one minivan. GM has how many minivans? 4? 5? And not one of them is any good.   Instead of engineering and marketing 4 or 5 different variations on that theme, GM should put that extra money into making that one single minivan and making it the best darn minivan there is.   I agree, that GMC should go away. Chevy trucks covers that market just fine. Instead of spending the money to design, build and market two different front-end clips for the Tahoe/Tahoe XL, they should have taken that same money and engineered a better-riding, better-handling independent rear suspension.   Buick may be salvageable with a much reduced product line. Pontiac should be killed -- move the Solstice to Chevy and shoot the rest. Saturn can (and apparently will be) moved upmarket to try to compete against Acura. That may actually work if they stop building dreck. Cadillac seems to be turning the corner.

#463 of 3125 Independent Rear Suspension by smittywall Feb 17, 2006 (8:24 pm)
Replying to: nedzel (Feb 17, 2006 6:19 pm) Independent rear suspensions (IRS) combined with fold flat seats (to please those who really want a minivan) hurt a trucks ride by reducing the available wheel travel. The '06 Tahoe already had the best ride of the 4 full size SUVs and the '07 Yukon I test drove last weekend was even better. The Expedition and Armada both with IRS, ride like bricks.
