Replying to: dsquare (Apr 22, 2006 7:56 pm) you defiantly have a problem, the 410’s will bring the MPG down a little, but you should be in the 15-16 range in the city. My 14 with the same engine (less the DOD electronic control) consistently gets 15-16 city – 17-18 highway depending on load and wind. Take her back.

Replying to: 73shark (Apr 23, 2006 8:15 am) When did you order yours? P placed my order 2 weeks ago. I heard that the nav radios were delayed, did not hear anything about the rear camera or 20 in wheels. Mine has all 3 options. how long have you been waiting, what is the ETA?

Replying to: dsquare (Apr 22, 2006 7:56 pm) dsquare,   Someone (Tahoe Owner) told me that the m ileage should improve as the engine breaks in for the first 3 -4 weeks. I had my doubts but he was right.   I bought my 07 Tahoe on 3.30.06, the first week was ~ 14.2 mpg which I was a little worried. As of today, I am seeing 15.5 which is becoming encourage. I do about 60% city 40% highway. I expected it to get "a little better".   I am actually getting better mpg than my 99 Explorer 6 cyl which was posted as 15/20 and was getting ~ 14 mpg before I retired it.

Replying to: junglegeorge (Apr 23, 2006 10:57 am) Sharky,   To give you an idea, I placed an order on 2.18.06 and was not picked as of 3.30.06. I too, orederd the NAV, Rear view camera and DVD.   The NAV and rear view camera were "constraint" being back order or those pieces need to be redesigned.   So, I stopped the order and bought another one of another dealer. I had to sacrafice the full bench rear seats for captain's chairs. But got the other items I wanted.   There is a website that shows the contraints and it showed the NAV and Camera delayed. NOT GOOD. I heard that it is delayed till the Summer.   However, I LOVE my Tahoe. If you can wait or get one off the lot, it is worth the wait. The looks and commnets are never ending. They are impressed what GM is doing.     Replies to this message: junglegeorge (Apr 23, 2006 12:58 pm)

#871 of 3122 2007 Tahoe Z71 info by junglegeorge Apr 23, 2006 (1:35 pm)
Z71 not LTZ I just found this info at www.ameinfo.com/73994.html   The available Z71 Off-Road package (available later in 2006) includes a specifically designed three-piece fascia with a protective, platinum chrome skid plate. It has larger tow hook openings; larger, more prominent fog lamps; and specific grille texture and platinum chrome grille trim. Eighteen-inch wheels and tires also are part of the Off-Road package.   The new Tahoe offers additional 18 mm of ground clearance. The Autotrac electronic transfer case is standard on all 4WD Tahoe.
#872 of 3122 Leaking air and tail light gap...... by rockin_ltz Apr 23, 2006 (4:06 pm)
I used my remote start this afternoon as we were leaving church to get my LTZ cooled down before we got in it. However, as I approached the rear of the vehicle I noticed that the left tail light lens has about a half to 3/4 inch gap between it and the body. It's the top part of the lens that has this gap...And the right side lens fits snug/flush against the body. While investigating this gap, I noticed quite a bit of air leaking or coming out of the rear window too.   Here's a pic of the gap:     Has anyone else noticed any gaps in the tail light lens and body on their trucks or the air escaping from the windows???

Replying to: junglegeorge (Apr 23, 2006 10:57 am) Ordered on 2-17 and was supposed to be built 3-20. On 3-27, I found out about the nav/radios and camera shortages. On 4-21, dealer was informed about the 20" wheels. No ETA on more wheels or additional radios and cameras. But until they get more wheels, mine won't be built as not even a delete option on the LTZ.

#874 of 3122 Re: 2007 Tahoe Grill [73shark] by 07tahoecop Apr 24, 2006 (5:11 am)
Replying to: 73shark (Apr 18, 2006 12:09 pm) I dont know the brand but if u go to Ebay and type in 2007 Tahoe in the search, its the billet grille for $76. Its high quality Aluminum and it looks fantastic. I get a lot of compliments on it. I never recommend any product but this one is really nice. Its clean and not over whelming. Really dresses the front up but doeasnt over power.

Replying to: 73shark (Apr 23, 2006 5:01 pm) There are definitely shortages. I placed my order for an Avalanche LTZ w/nav and rear camera early this month. I received a call on Friday asking if I'd like to delete the nav & cam, because that would increase the odds of it being built soon. I'm holding out, but they couldn't say exactly how long the wait might be. The salesman did say something about the "Denalis getting most of them right now" though.
