Every time I see the new body style I just cringe...The lines just don't flow at all. There is no way I would spend that kind of money on them. The interiors are a different story, but the exterior just doesn't cut it for me. GM went from (in my opinion) the best looking SUV on the road to a laughing stock. I will run my 08 until the wheels fall off, but when it is no more I dare say I will be driving another brand. Even the new GM trucks look awkward with their square fender wells...How can the designers think they look good?

I have a new 2014 Tundra Crewmax on the way for my work vehicle, and if I holds up under the rigors of what I will be doing the Sequoia may be my Tahoe's replacement. I hate to think like that but there is no way I will be purchasing a new Hoe/Yukon.

The sequoia is due for a redesign itself, so I wouldn't be so quick to say you'll replace GM with that. And they aren't that bad looking, they'll grow on you. I still think the fronts look weird but oh well.

I love it!! Price is spendy, that's why I went for a Tahoe this time around. Currently have a 2004 Denali and she has been great to me, but I can't wait for my '15 Tahoe to arrive.

I think the GMC looks pretty good, but can't say I like the Tahoe.

+1

And the new pick-up front ends are hideous, IMO. Too square and too much chrome.

Even according to finance guy at the dealer I frequent everyone is waiting for them to grow on them. I highly doubt you'll see that model last 7 years as the '07-'14 did. I think they would be easily used as hearse/funeral vehicles though

I think the pictures don't do them any justice. I see them around town now and am in love. Can't wait to get one.

I saw a brand new Tahoe the other day. Looks like a big Ford Flex. I hate it.
The GMC is SLIGHTLY better.
I'm gonna have to find a '14 and drive it til they change it again.

I hated the 2015 exterior when I first saw it online but I will say it did look a lot better when I saw it in person. Of course, it's not nearly as good looking as my '08 body style. Interior is pretty sick though. I just wish they hadn't tried to make the exterior more aerodynamic but they're trying to pick up those extra fractions of a MPG anywhere they can. It's a truck, it's not supposed to be aerodynamic.

Next car will probably have to be a 2014 Tahoe down the road some point.

I dislike them. As stated they look like Ford's.. If I had to get a newer truck I'd get the nnbs Sierra. I drove on for a week and it's alright. The 14 is too boxy
