need to setup trip #13 now. (14 from original dealer, 13 to this dealer = 27)

right front speaker is making a god awful noise when i play anything with bass or take phone calls!

GO GM!

 

and go BLOOSE I mean bose...

 

well, the speaker is fine, i just dont think they screwed it in firmly to the door... so it rattles... remember, my tahoe was assembled with spit and bubble gum...

 

You sure are hard on your truck.

Thank you!

Not yet, i'm too busy to drop everything and deal with the hassle.

How about you BMW me?

Where you pick my car up from my work, while dropping off a newer version of it?

You know, like a good car company does...

I spent $54,000 on a Tahoe, and I MIGHT get a POS rental wreck.

My co-worker got a $46,000 caddy (that he hates) and they give him... A CADDY.

Shoulda spent the extra few grand on the X5...

Now I know... as does everyone I ever meet

When my 4x4 SUV w/towing package goes in for service, what do you think I need? a Geo Metro? a Lumina? No Genius, I NEED A TAHOE / SUBURBAN / YUKON. I need to tow 6,000 lbs, I need a GPS. that's what I BOUGHT THOSE THINGS.

 

I hear you on this one... I pay for rental insurance on my vehicle so when I hit a deer a while back and I took my 07 Tahoe in for repairs... they gave me a Pontiac G6... wtf?!? sure it was peppy but I was now sitting at the same height as the door trim of my truck, could now seat 4 less people and forget about towing anything...

As for my dealership its a luck of the draw , if you get in early and are having warranty work done and it requires them to give you a free rental... they usually always have a couple of new to newer vehicles ranging from Tahoe's to Camaro's however the sweeter ones usually go quick....

 

Not really when the vehicle decides to shut down randomly to zero whether going down a country road or 70 mph on the dan ryan expressway. Could make for a nasty day! Never had an issue with the airbags on the Honda's but several with the stabilitrac on the Burb in the couple years I had owned it.

 

How much would it have cost you to keep your 95 Tahoe instead of trade/sell it? $5k plus a few hundred a year for insurance?

I regret trading in my 99 Suburban instead of just keeping it. My 05 has been good, only been to the dealer one time, but I got "t-boned" in it once and my truck needed two new doors and a replacement step bar. Parts and a few hours labor, should have been quick. Except this happened to me about a week or two after we had an ice storm, and in Louisville we do not get weather like that, so the drivers are not used to it. As you might imagine, every body shop had a very long backlog of work and their parking lots were all full of wrecks. It took 7 weeks for my truck to be fixed.

I had rental coverage but every car rental company had a "no towing" policy and the best vehicle I could find was a Durango with a V6 and the cheapest option package anyway, and I had to wait several days to get that because there just were no rental vehicles at all for a while, people had them all. This cost me a little bit of work because I couldn't tow anything for 7 weeks.

Anyway, it is sure bad that your Tahoe is unreliable but if it's that important to you and you have enough money, get a backup vehicle. $0.02.
