    Predictions: Nov/Dec 2025 Incentives

    I checked Classic Chevy's website and they appear to be advertising $8k off MSRP on some Tahoe and Suburban trims.

    2025/2026 6.2’s now failing.

    That's why we went with a 2025 F150 Lariat with the 5.0 Coyote and 6.5 foot bed. We were about to pull the trigger on a GMC Sierra 1500 SLT with the 6.2 but multiple poor GMC dealership experiences where their numbers didn't add up, we ended up ordering our F150 via Granger Ford. In...

    Predictions: Nov/Dec 2025 Incentives

    I think it's only a matter of time for all trims. My preference would be Premier and then Z71. I'd go with a Z71 if they had ventilated seats in it.

    Predictions: Nov/Dec 2025 Incentives

    Looks like that has changed quickly. They're advertising about 5% off MSRP on 2026 models now in early November. Imagine what it's going to be in 2-4 months if the automotive market continues to soften.

    Code P06DD thrust bearing issue...

    ... and people here said that the baby Duramaxes were the more reliable GM engines... ... what is wrong with GM these days?

    GM dropping CarPlay

    This. Or GM can allow the car to tether off someone's cell phone and not need to force a subscription on folks. (But there's no $$$ in that.). Maybe, but I think this question has been somewhat answered by GM already. They backed off the idea of removing CarPlay yet again because they don't...

    GM dropping CarPlay

    Also, why does a car have to have its own cellular modem. Why can't it just tether off your mobile phone's connection and thereby not need a subscription service / its own cellular modem? (The answer is obvious... GM wants the subscription revenue.)

    GM dropping CarPlay

    ... or maybe people will just shift towards brands that haven't eliminated Apple CarPlay / Android Auto.

    Predictions: Nov/Dec 2025 Incentives

    Classic Chevy out of DFW has about 90+ Suburbans and 180+ Tahoes in stock. They're advertising almost $11k off MSRP Tahoes and Suburbans. Eventually, there's going to be geographic market arbitrage.

    2026 Yukon concerns?

    The bolded text is a bit misleading wouldn't you say. If it were a naturally aspirated I6, I'd agree with you. But show me any turbocharged diesel I6 that isn't cluttered with some type of plumbing or emissions component around it. I don't even think someone could make the argument that a...

    2026 Yukon concerns?

    Really? I think it's going to be a trade off. Having owned so many vehicles with packed engine bays with turbocharged engines, it's refreshing to have a NA v8 because it's easier to get to a lot more components without having to deal with all the plumbing of a turbocharged engine. A...

    2026 Tahoe/Yukon Differences

    Interesting. Major volume Chevy dealerships seem to be doing $4000-8000 discounts on their websites. I think those discounts are only going to get larger going forward as the luster wears off the first refreshed model year.

    BREAKING: GM is officially recalling the L87

    ... the bolded part is my point. I think the failure rate of the 6.2L for all issues (to include issues outside of the bottom end problems such as lifter failures, etc.) is much higher than 3%. Whatever that true number is... that's already a pretty high failure rate for any engine.

    BREAKING: GM is officially recalling the L87

    I thought the failure rate is 3% which is a pretty high failure rate from this issue alone. Imagine aggregating this failure with all the other types of failures. Wonder what the true failure rate for all cases for the 6.2 would be.
