Omg. Put your clothes back on and show them the Lunar Rover.

Interesting read... I read it to the end and all of your messaging was clear and well articulated. I'm impressed that GM would even take up your initial contact, as well as follow up with you directly. I couldn't agree more with the statements and analyses you presented. Highly recommend.

Wow I finished it! LOL. nice write up man. Lot of interesting perspectives you put on there that I never would have thought about. I’m glad they responded and you kept your V!

@soulsea Did you get your Range Rover yet? you should post some pics of that next to the V. Wouldn’t mind seeing the size comparison...

@soulsea I read the whole thread and communication between you and a couple of the GM execs.

Well said on your part and strong valid points. Which is exactly why they kept reaching back out.

The best part is there it was just a raw interaction between a company and one of their clearly loyal customers. And they listened… An interaction at that level is rare. Well done GM.

I ordered a LWB RR in February. Still haven't heard anything about the order. The Escalade came first and no markup.

So we only had the V for 3 days and headed out to Orlando on a mini-vacation with it (200miles each way).

Passing cars is much more enjoyable now. Comfortable ride. Technology is great. I used Apple CarPlay most of the trip.

We averaged 15.5mpg on the way up. 14.6mpg on the way back (there was a lot of traffic and some opportune moments to pass slower cars).

The valet at the hotel was going nuts. They parked it out front next to another escalade ESV. They looked fairly identical at first sight.

Other than that, lovebugs suck.

Just picked her up ... lowered, Vossen 24s, Nitto 420NV, dechromed crests and emblems.

Better pics to be taken by Vossen on Saturday.

Turned out exactly as I wanted ... thanks to @THE YETI for all the custom paintwork and for the wheel hookup.

Anytime. It came out great!
Was the custom paintwork just to the badges and emblems? What did u use on the orange reflector? I tried to do mine in window tint and it did not go well, need an easier tactic...

Looks sexy as hell.

I was thinking the same vossen rims for mine but in a 22" (damn MI roads). How easy do they seem to be to clean?
