    Any regrets not getting a Suburban/XL instead of Tahoe/Yukon?

    I had the same dilemma and decided to go with a Suburban - really glad I did! Love the extra space - we always use the third row and the cargo space in the "non-XL" version would not have been adequate for us.

    BREAKING: GM is officially recalling the L87

    They said this without me telling them my VIN. Unless they pulled it up by my phone number..hmm.. I guess I'll wait for my second GM letter at this point

    BREAKING: GM is officially recalling the L87

    got it, thanks! I'm still confused though why both dealers I talked too still say that are waiting for instructions from GM but I'm reading posts from people who have successfully taken their car for inspection..weird.

    BREAKING: GM is officially recalling the L87

    nice fish! :) BacDoc - what is the second GM letter you're talking about? I've got the one back in my that mentions the recall but says "parts to repair your vehicle are not currently available". I've also just called another dealer in the area asking about their readiness and they say they...

    BREAKING: GM is officially recalling the L87

    Just wondering if the dealers are now equipped to handle this recall. When I called back in early June, they weren’t ready yet. Has anyone taken their truck in for this recently? Thanks!

    BREAKING: GM is officially recalling the L87

    Out of curiosity : how much is a good mechanic's labor per hour in Russia? Around here it's around $150-200 from what I can tell based on my past invoices and quotes (Toyota, Chevy). To clarify: that's not what the mechanic earns - that's what dealer/services charges the customer

    BREAKING: GM is officially recalling the L87

    Many(most?) people (including myself) who bought these brand-new, just don't have the skill/equipment to do so and labor costs are much higher here than in Russia ( I assume ) to hire somebody else to do that. I have a warranty so I'm planning to just wait and see how this plays out.

    BREAKING: GM is officially recalling the L87

    Sorry to hear about your engine Vladimir. Can you share more details on what exactly the car did when that happened: did it kinda completely lock up the engine/transmission (as if you slammed on the brakes) or was it more like switching into neutral and the car just coasted until the complete...

    BREAKING: GM is officially recalling the L87

    Probably not many, at least among the people with Tahoes/Suburbans. I've got a 2023 Suburban and there is really no alternative except the Expedition but when I was doing research (pre-purchase) I got an impression that Ford had a bunch of own issues so it's not significantly better...

    BREAKING: GM is officially recalling the L87

    If that's true then it means no replacement for 100% of the engines in the recall window? So basically an inspection (whatever that entails to be seen I guess) and then replacing only the bad engines?

    Thank you! In this case I'll cancel the appointment and go through the thread.

    BREAKING: GM is officially recalling the L87

    Has anyone gone to the dealer to get the recall checked yet? I called mine, and they sounded kind of clueless. At first, they said there was no recall, then changed their mind and said there is one. I was asked if I wanted an oil change, and I replied, 'Well, it's part of the recall, isn't...

    Magnetic v. Air Ride - noticeable difference?

    I was under impression that air ride includes magnaride and the air ride only is used for lift/lower the truck and level it during towing. So if you already have magnaride, adding air ride doesn't change the ride quality. This is was I read that gave me that impression...

    Thinking of selling my new 6.2L Denali...

    yep, that's what I did - got the longest warranty. I also change the oil every 5K and don't worry about the engine.

    From Lexus to Chevy?

    I moved from a Lexus (albeit a smaller one - RX 350) to a High Country Suburban because I needed lots of room and comfortable third row. 1) I really like Lexus so I did look into the GX and LX 600 first but the additional space is pretty marginal compare to the RX (RX is 192", LX is 200" - 6...
