    Need Tires For Stock Rims

    Yeah, to be honest TYF isn't so great for Hybrid owners. The best choice IMO is the Michelin LTX M/S 2 if you live in a snowy area and want long lasting tread life. Latitude Tour and Continental Ecopias are also good. Not a fan of the OEM Bridgestones. On the matter of skinnier tires, it is...

    Considering a Yukon Denali Hybrid

    Personally, if I were to make my purchase again I would have gone with the standard Yukon Hybrid. The Denali Hybrid really doesn't add many usable features and it lacks the aerodynamic and lightening improvements made on the Yukon Hybrid. The 22s don't ride all that great and they aren't optimal...

    Bad Cold Weather MPG?

    Nope. Almost never use the remote start.

    Bad Cold Weather MPG?

    Last winter in Michigan was quite mild, with barely any snow, and we were getting 18-19 MPG easily. This winter has been more harsh, and I have noticed quite a drop in mileage. My wife DDs the Yukon and she usually gets 18 MPG, but this winter I've consistently seen averages of around 16.5...

    Does the Dealer Actually Perform Listed Services?

    What you are saying is valid, and I did spray the door hinge, but it makes me mad that when I pay the dealer and trust them to perform listed services they don't.

    Does the Dealer Actually Perform Listed Services?

    I've seen in my owners' manual and on websites like Driverside a number of inspections and lubircation of chassis, weatherstriping etc., but does the dealership actually perform these services? I've seen that they never did it for my Trailblazer, which has 180k miles and a squeaky door hinge...

    Spilled Water On the Leather...

    So someone left a water bottle with the cap half screwed on and it spills all over my seat.:shocked: The seat is perforated so it definitely got into the cushion so I ran the seat cooler, but the leather is wrinkled and damp and it looks discolored.. What should I do?

    Its Been in the dealer for a month...

    So, after I had all these issues in the Hybrid (See my thread "More Freakin' Issues"), I called GM Customer Service because the reps on this forum didn't respond to my case. Turns out the case went all the way up to the executive office in the ren center (with the help of a high level GM buddy...

    Yukon Denali Hybrid

    I got my Denali ordered from Indiana (I live in Michigan) by my dealer. They drove it all the way over and dropped it off. Took forever to find a fully loaded one.. We tryed a used Esky Hybrid but deemed that it wasn't worth it. Coming from a 2010 Denali XL and getting 12 mpg, I can say that the...

    Help Deciding on Next Ride ...Update: Bought!

    Not to be a downer or anything.... But that's about the same amount of time that my Denali's been in the shop. But hey, sometimes I get one of them Regal Turbos as a loaner, so it might just be a good thing :hmm: BTW You have the most tastefully modded Denali I've ever seen. And I've never...

    Downsizing Denali 22s?

    I know that some of you out there are wheel/tire experts, so I need a little advice as I have never switched to an aftermarket wheel before. The wheels I selected have a recommended tire size of 265/65r18, but I wanted to know if I could switch those to 275/65r18, because it perfectly...
