    If you didnt have a Yukon/Suburban/Escalade, what would be your next choice?

    Going back to my BMW roots because I'm planning to order a 2026 BMW X5 xDrive40i for my mom. We were considering either a 2025 4Runner Limited or a 2025 GX550 Premium Plus, but the GX550 Premium Plus market selling price ends up being $10-15k more than the way we would option a BMW X5 and it's...

    Inventory or Order?

    Is there a similar/counterpart to Laura GMC on the Chevy side?

    Agreed. That's why we decided to go with a 1/2 ton pickup this time around. We felt it made more sense to see how the SUV market develops in the next 1-3 years for our next purchase. Now that we have a 1/2 ton pickup, we may not need an 1/2 ton based extended wheel base SUV. I'm also...

    2025 Order Pricing

    When we were in the process of ordering a 2025 Sierra 1500 SLT with the 6.2, we contacted both. Rivard refused to provide a quote and their dealer fees were very high (Florida). They said they would need to order the car first and would provide a quote after the vehicle was ordered - this...

    Anyone have experience with Classic Chevy out of Fort Worth / Dallas? They seem like another high volume dealer.

    I wonder how much more expensive each engine replacement will be with the tariffs (if they last).

    NHTSA opens preliminary probe into more than 870,000 GM vehicles

    That was one of my fears... and why we switch to the Ford F150 5.0 last minute.

    NHTSA opens preliminary probe into more than 870,000 GM vehicles

    I think that would impact perceived performance, but I don't think the 3.73 will fully resolve what you're experiencing. I was willing to accept a less than optimal shift strategy as long as it didn't affect reliability/durability. The alternative was an engine with a possible propensity to...

    NHTSA opens preliminary probe into more than 870,000 GM vehicles

    Out of curiosity, does your work truck have 3.31 rear end or the 3.73 - I know there's the 8.8" and the 9.75" variant diffs. We test drove the Sierra 1500 SLT with the LZ0 and 6.2L - once each. We test drove the 2024 F150 5.0 and the 2025 F150 5.0 (Job 1) as well. GM's transmission...

    NHTSA opens preliminary probe into more than 870,000 GM vehicles

    Ended up placing an order today for a 2025 F150 Lariat with the 5.0 with Granger Ford because it seems GM has been unable to resolve the problems with its NA V8s after 5+ years. Maybe they will work it out on their next gen V8s.

    2025 Order Pricing

    So I've had 2 dealerships claim that they are unable to provide a quote until they submit the build to GM and the order is invoiced. They didn't require me putting down a deposit. Does that make sense? What's to stop me from saying, "Yeah, I'd like to order a fleet of 200 of the exact same...

    Strange, last night all of them showed $7,800 off except 1 which still has the $776 discount.

    Looks like Bomnin is advertising almost $8k off on the 2025 Suburbans: https://www.bomninchevroletwestkendall.com/VehicleSearchResults?search=new&year=2025&model=Suburban&trim=4WD%20Z71
