    Loaded '14 tahoe vs base 2015?

    The old style is just that...old...and dated. Not to mention the old gen 5.3l is totally gutless IMO. I would WITHOUT QUESTION buy the 15.

    Favorite Changes from 2015 to 2016

    The 2015i also has the capacitance screen. The only upgrade I would care about would be Apple car play and a faster processor. The processor in my 2015 GMC 2500 HD SLE is a freaking joke. The rest of the technology over driver input crap I can do without.

    Automatic braking - anyone have it?

    Agreed Julian. An instant improvement would be an on/off, adaptive/regular CC switch. God, it can be a pain unless you are on open and clear highway.

    Automatic braking - anyone have it?

    I don't mind technology. I love a good stereo system, appreciate lighted alerts and air bags. Even emergency braking is a good idea. I do not like it when any aspect of normal control is taken away. Especially when the technology in this area is still very archaic and really doesn't work well in...

    Automatic braking - anyone have it?

    I personally would never order ACC again. IMO, I find it to be very difficult to deal with. On the highway, It senses a car in your lane a few hundred feet in front of you, and you start slowing down. Almost lulling you. Before you know it, you are going 5-10 mph slower. The second you pull...

    My New 2016 Escalade Platinum

    I would leave them as they are. Nothing sticks out MORE, or looks more cheesy than someone altering the stock look.

    Has anyone wrecked their new 2015 Denali?

    Sorry to hear that. In order for it to be totaled, there needs to be higher repair costs than what the vehicle is worth. So unless there is 55k+ worth of damage, which is doubt, they will have it fixed for you. Body shops today are so good, that the car will look and drive like it never...

    Need advice on buying 2016 LTZ or Denali

    Yes, that is how it works in NY, and every other state I would imagine. One state does not collect sales tax for another state. It is collected when you register and plate the vehicle in your home state.

    Well, something about it makes me want it. Very nice.

    Need advice on buying 2016 LTZ or Denali

    I guess I'm critical with the 5.3l because my state isn't flat like Florida. In those situations, I'm sure it is adequate. When the 5.3 encounters a Pennsylvania or NY interstate mountain, it falls flat, especially with the 6 speed unable to hold OD in a heavy vehicle. Forget towing anything...

    Also, IMO, you will be much happier with the 6.2l I won't own another 5.3l in a heavy SUV.

    Need advice on buying 2016 LTZ or Denali

    On a clean deal, I'm thinking $1,500 under invoice plus any incentives would be fair. Just go to a dealer and ask, but go directly to the new car manager. Don't cloud up the deal by working with a salesman who will undoubtably mess up the communication. Just be ready to buy on the spot and bring...

    2015 vs. 2016? New vs. Used?

    What that means is that late model used vehicles are priced so close to new, that it doesn't make any sense to buy used. I'm shaking my head at what some people will fore go for an older, used vehicle to save literally nothing in value. It shocks me what used vehicles are bringing at the...
