    Are extended warranties worth buying?

    I believe you can buy one as long as the original factory warranty is in effect. Previously I bought them on-line from a GM dealer in Pennsylvania (see my post up the line).

    Are extended warranties worth buying?

    Where did you buy yours and what kind was it? GM Master Protection Plan?

    How do I get my factory SiriusXM to display the album cover??

    I've got a 2016 LT with the luxury package and 8 inch display. When I Bluetooth Pandora the screen displays the album cover art. My son's 2017 Grand Cherokee displays the album art with SiriusXM. Can I do this with my Tahoe as well?? If so, how? Thanks.

    Are extended warranties worth buying?

    I've had GMMPPs on my Caddy, my Tahoe, and my 'vette. The warranty easily paid for itself on the Tahoe (4wd system) and barely on the Caddy (electronics). I never turned in a single claim on the Corvette.

    GM offers first two services free - did you use them?

    .....................brought it in for the first free service? Do they make you drive it for 5-10k miles first? Thanks.

    Alternative to Laura GMC for no-haggle low prices?

    Yeah I bought a 2016 Tahoe LT 4X4 from them in December. $200 off invoice plus Costco rebate and Costco gift card. So about $1700 south of invoice as I remember. Smooth transaction and salesman was nice to deal with.

    Aftermarket Radio Installation - 2015 Tahoe LS with IO3

    John, congratulations on the successful completion of a major, major aftermarket car electronics project. I've done a few projects (which required dash tearouts and having to go to down to the dealer to read shop service schematics), but nothing on the scale of what you did. That 4.2" IO3...

    Is $55,000 a reasonable deal for 2016 Tahoe LT 4WD + Luxury package at all?

    I paid $55,171 for a LT with luxury package, sunroof, 2 speed transfer case, and roof rack cross rails. That's after all Costco rebates, before sales tax and license.

    How many of you DO NOT experience buffetting and vibration problem?

    I've got 425 miles on my 2016 LT 4WD, and 350 of that was driving back from Dave Smith Motors in Kellogg, Idaho on I-90. I asked my salesman when we were closing the deal if he was aware of the problem; he seemed surprised and said "no". I was so amused playing with all the gadgets on the...

    What else did you look at before pulling the trigger on a Tahoe/Yukon? Any regrets??

    Beautiful Cayenne! And in GTS form, there isn't a Tahoe/Suburban on the planet that will turn a 4.8 sec 0-60 time with a 163 mph top end. If that's frumpy, I'm in every time. But my Gordon Setter, luggage, and my 6' plus kids don't fit in a Cayenne very well, and even my Tahoe gets full...

    What else did you look at before pulling the trigger on a Tahoe/Yukon? Any regrets??

    I priced a Cayenne on the Porsche web site, and if you keep it bare bones it's not too different from a Tahoe LT. If you get all the knobs, you can double the MSRP. Would have loved to have one, but just too small for my lifestyle.

    What else did you look at before pulling the trigger on a Tahoe/Yukon? Any regrets??

    I was looking to replace my '05 Z71 Tahoe with another large SUV. Besides the 2016 Tahoe I ultimately went with, I considered: A top choice was a Land Rover LR4, but when I found out they replaced that sweet little 4.0 V8 with a 3.0 six, it became a non starter. Second was Toyota Sequoia...

    Is 9% off MSRP a Good, Fair, or Bad deal???

    That's after all rebates, incentives, etc. on a 2016 LT 4X4. I bought a new 2005 Z-71 after Hurricane Katrina and got a better deal back then. Thanks in advance.

    Anyone else experiencing this order delay???

    According to this fleet management site, there are big delays for Tahoes. Delays of 21-23 weeks are nuts. The guys at Dave Smith won't return my calls. Thinking about getting my $1000 deposit back and buying a Sequoia. http://www.arifleet.com/publications/lead_times_delays/#item1673
