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.

2007 Tahoe Z71 info by junglegeorge

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.

Leaking air and tail light gap...... by rockin_ltz

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???

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.

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.

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.

I don't have the gap problem. I have noticed the air escaping on both rear doors and around the rear window during remote start and when I fan speed is set to max. Dealership had no idea if this was normal so they checked the other 20 tahoes on the lot and they did the same thing. Dealer told me it must be designed that way or it wouldn't happen on all of them. Wish I knew...

If you don't have the system set to recirculate, where does the air go? It has to leak out some where or blow-up like a balloon. Even on re-circulate I bet some fresh air is brought in.
 
I've always wondered where the air went out. guess I know now.

93 octane is a total waste of money, not just because it cost more, but because your tahoe wont run as well. The higher the octane the, the lower the energy the gas has. High octane gas us used to slow down the ignition in your cylinders. The slower the ignition the less power you have. The reason high end cars require high octane is because the run at a higher compression ratio and a quicker ignition will damage the pistons and rings. The higher octane is used to prevent detonation.
