I think about 4 weeks from order to shipping. Customer orders are build first. Over dealer invertory. When a tahoe comes off the ass line. It has a S sticker on the windshild. meaning a customer has order it. The tahoe with the S sticker is the first to get through the final process. Then how far you live from the factory were they are build. They are build in Wisconsin and Texas.

Anyone have any updates on if they are building any '07 Tahoes with these options? Mine has been on order for 8 weeks and dealer can't seem to find out anything.

Metal & debris in oil after the FIRST oil change --- (excessive (define that please...) --- Very easy .. compare NEW oil .. to the USED oil from the first oil change of a NEW engine. .. Only a person with his / hers eyes closed couldn't see the difference!!
....
-- Again from my post #659 (very carefully take the first oil filter apart and look at filter element and in the bottom of the filter can ... you will be amazed at the AMOUNT of metal & stuff that you can see ... just imagine what you can't see and it's in YOUR engine too!)
....
Have anyone cut open the FIRST filter from there new engine and inspected the oil & filter media? .. Do you think all that debris in the oil is good for your engine? ..
...
If UNSEEN metal & contaminants were in a brand of NEW oil would you buy & use it?? .. I know I would NOT!! .. That is why it's so important (IMHO) to do low mileage inital oil change!

The Janesville wis. plant has been building Tahoes with nav/radio. I am guessing that they are haveing a supply problem in getting the Nav/radio to meet there deman. Again poor planding by gm in getting parts.

Are they putting the Nav/radio in both Yukons and Tahoes in Janesville, or just the Yukons? I ordered a Tahoe with the Nav/radio back in the early part of March and my vehicle has been on hold ever since. My dealer is located about a two hour drive from the Janesville plant, but evidently this does not make a difference in getting my vehicle built. My dealer has no Tahoes on the lot to sell me, so I think he was being straight with me about the status of my Tahoe.

Yes they are putting them in Tahoe/Yukons. and Denali. These trucks that are getting them now might have been order 4 or 5 month ago. all I can tell you for sure that they are haveing a supplyer problem. They wanted to put Janesville plant on overtime back in march. But can't because they can't get the parts to run the plant on overtime.

That is about right. I ordered March 17th and it got here April 12th. I live in Arkansas and my Tahoe was built in Texas.
I picked it up early this afternoon. Our salesman was great. He spent almost two hours showing me everything. I have only put 32 miles on it, but I think I am in love. I stopped by my father's house, my sister's home, and Mother's to show it off. They all think it is beautiful. Of course, since I am so proud of it, they wouldn't have said anything contrary. You gotta love family!

I thought the Janesville, WI just started to build new Tahoes in the last 2-3 months. So it will take this plant sometimes to ramp up to full speed regardless of parts. I was told the Arlington plant was a first plant to build new Tahoes.
