I used to collect diecast and then sold them to eat. Anyhow, I would like one of my truck or even a model if they make it. Anyone ever seen a GMT-900 Yukon XL?

I wanna say I've seen them at CVS or Walgreen's, but they may have been Suburbans.

I bought a Welly 1/24 diecast model of an '08. I plan to make it match as close to my real one as possible. Wheels are gonna be the biggest hurdle.

I have a 1/18 scale 2003 escalade esv. I’ll have to post a pic of it when I get home. I’ve always had toy cars since I was little. Still have a full case of matchbox cars that’s I’ve had since I was kid. I never did like sharing with the other kids that cuz they always wanted to play demo derby. And I never wanted my cars all scratched up haha.

Looks like the DUB Edition series. I bought an S10 Xtreme (DUB Edition) from a truck stop years ago cuz it was almost an exact replica of my truck, down to the wheel style. I later painted the wheels and underhood components to make it even more accurate. It was used on my groom's cake.
I might have to find that Tahoe cuz it's already lowered and has a shaved roof rack. It also has skirts instead of running boards, which I plan on having eventually.

I have an acquaintance with the owner of 'EXOTO' die cast cars. ( Jack Keusseyan).....
Die casts are pricey to design & manufacture. They only do a run of models that will sell over 20,000 pieces.
( mostly, but they do make VERY expensive runs of limited series ).....
The market for a stock SUV is not large enough..... So, the DUB Escalade diecast is probably the only one around. ( It's probably like a nice toy version)
If I sold my 1/18 scale - 6 limited / autographed Exoto & special Revell models, for their value, I could buy a 2012 Yukon!!
It would be fun to get lucky and find a good 'toy version' of a Yukon and paint it, etc., to match !!
