Congrats!!! I live about 5 minutes from that dealership and they have some nice cars there.... My brother has bought 2 cars from them before with no issues what so ever.... I used to have an 07 tahoe exactly like your new ride and i love it... now i got a 09 white hoe....

Thanks very much, that is good to hear and gives me some additional comfort. ;-)

Looks like a nice rig--only thing I noticed from the pics was that the driver's side HVAC controls looked like someone used a marker to them....(maybe its just the pic) BUT the rest of that rig looks really good. Is this an addition to the family-not dumping the Yukon are you??

I know its a little nerve wracking buying a rig sight unseen(for lack of a better term) but I did it with my Denali-I lucked out with mine-it was as good as it looked in the pics. It will be some long days ahead before you take delivery CONGRATS

Thanks Jason. I noticed the HVAC Control button as well, but I think it should not be too bad having to replace that if it is not the picture.

I also noticed that on the rear bumper the cover (for what I assume the lock for the spare is) is missing. I will check with them to see if they will take care of it like they said they would do with the cracked dash.

I will NOT replace the Yukon, this will be an addition to the family, the rig for the Mrs., the Soccer mom rig. She wanted blue with grey interior and BINGO. ;-)

Congrats man looks clean from the outside. Can't see the interior pics I'm in Tapatalk. Really good price for a low mileage 07.
Any mods on your list? Lol

Thanks very much. The inside is just as clean judging by the pictures. ;-)

Not sure about mods as of yet, as this will be the Soccer mom's rig and I am not sure what mods she would like to have done. (Like she would even care?????)

- Most like a De-Badging of the Doors, not sure about the rear yet.
- Black out the Chevy Bow Ties front and rear, maybe even vehicle color as I have it on my Yukon.
- Some nice LED Tails eventually.
- A Magnaflow Exhaust as I have on my Yukon.

I am pretty happy with the LTZ 20" inch wheels, so those will most likely stay.

WE SHALL SEE, .................

Congrats man! I shopped for my used burb for six months before I found what I wanted, three states over. I kept coming back to those guys, who seemed to have the best deals out there, but just by s--- luck I found one closer than the Lonestar State. Looks great, welcome to the family!

Very nice! Congrats. I love the color of the interior. I wanted light grey but settled for tan. The light grey is hard to find. I only saw 1 while I was searching for a truck. And I looked at Tahoes, Denalis and Eskys.

Thanks Drew. The Mrs. wanted blue with grey, THAT's ALL she wanted and I aime to please. So the moment I saw this one, it was pretty much a no brainer.

When is it set to arrive??

When is it set to arrive??

Not sure yet Jacob. Today, I just took care of and signed all the paperwork that was FedEx'd to me yesterday and I returned it today so they should have it back tomorrow.

The BURB was expected to come back from the dealer after taking care of the dash crack tomorrow.

I will see what happens next.

 

[JochenWoern]

Dash has been replaced by the Local Chevy Dealer, HVAC Control Button and Rear Bumper Spare Lock Cover are on order to be replaced prior to shipping to Cali.

Told them I did not care that I had to wait as the Mrs. still has a car to drive and I rather have it done right and wait.

Also found out today that she has remote start as well. This is getting beter and better.

Hopefully we will ship middle of next week.

So far it has been customer service at its finest.

I can't wait to see pics of her in your driveway!!

 

[JochenWoern]

I can't wait to see pics of her in your driveway!!

Yep, me too. I sure hope all will check out as it should.

The Mrs. still can not believe it, .................. She will eventually get the idea come Monday, Tuesday.

BURB ARRIVED!!!! - She is FINALLY Home!

Off-loaded this afternoon at 1:00 PM in Cali.

Overall, I am very happy with the vehicle, no dings, dents or scratches. Interior looks clean and all seems to be working with the following exceptions (which I am NOT very happy about and I have already contacted Texas Direct Auto, we shall see what their reply will be):

-----> The Rear Bumper Cover for the Spare Lock is NOT INSTALLED as it was agreed.
-----> One of the front Daylight Running Bulbs is out and NOT WORKING (minor).
-----> The moment I started the truck the "SERVICE AIRBAG" Light comes on and the DIC (Driver Information Center) Display also states this issue (MAJOR)!!!!!!!!!

She drives nice and shifts as it should, no vibration or any alignment issues. This weekend she will receive a Major DEATILING job as well as the Door Debading.

So, NOW the QUESTIONS will begin:
- On the NBS truck changing the Daylight Running Bulb is a breeze. Can I do it myself with the NNBS truck, or is it a major pain?

- If my DIC shows me the Fuel Economy between 8 cyl. and 4 cyl., would my assumption be correct that the vehicle therefore does come with the Active Fuel Management System? (Did all NNBS Trucks come with that or is that an extra feature?

Thanks in advance guys.

Glad she made it in one piece-sorry to hear bout the other issues--I'm sure the dealer will make it right. I wish I could have gotten shots of mine when she was unloaded.... CONGRATS AGAIN!!

 

[07Burb]

1. Daytime running lights are easy to change. I need to the same on mine.
2. Yes it appears yours has the fuel management system. Not sure if they all have it in 07 or not.

The airbag message is most likely one of the sensors unplugged. Mine currently has the same message. I just have not taken the time to track down where it's unplugged at. Most likely on the console side of the passenger seat cuz the wife likes putting stuff down there like umbrellas and stuff.
