Congrats! Satin Steel Metallic is a great choice for the color. That new 10 speed is smooth as butter huh?

congrats! When you say suspension, is the ride just improved overall or is there a mechanical difference? I thought they kept with the same MRC tech.

I don't know if they keep the same magnetic ride but they must change something or the whole thing because the ride completely changed for me.
This is my 3 Denali and the difference is big my friend, I'm not a mechanic but I noticed.
Ohh another change wehn you apply the gas pedal is very smooth and the take off is very fast no even compared with the 2015. Amazing [emoji3].

Wow, maybe I should test drove an 18 before I picked up my 16 Denali. I didn't think the changes would be that significant.

I got it the beginning of Nov. Only had 11K miles on it so still kinda new. I would've paid more for the 18' but the 8speed leaves much to be desired. I'm hoping a blackbear tune will clean it up.

Got it, well I thought in the beginning I was exaggerating but my wife and my neighbor Randy confirmed.

glad to hear...I am on the fence between a 17 and 18 but really wasn't looking at a denali. THe 10spd and other updates (unknown) might be enough to push me for an 18 denali.lol

I think money may be a factor but is worth every penny.
Will test long distance from NJ to FL soon.

I know you had a trade but approx how much (%) off sticker did you get it for? If I can get 12% or more off MSRP I think I'll go with 18.
