[quote=""Chris GTO TT""]I'd look at an Expedition too I honestly feel like they drive better and their fold flat 3rd row is huge for hauling things in the cargo area. The 3rd row is also a lot roomier, you can actually put an adult back there and they won't want to kill you for it.[/quote]

She did like those when we were looking at edges. Deff something to keep in mind. Great to know.

Well, we have to test drive it. Have to try and pull it in the garage. Have to make sure it’s right. But if so, yes....it will be happening. Hate it doesn’t have the tow package but in well.

Will be getting a dod chip for it, and floor mats right off the batt.

Eh. When you’ve worked with trying to bring dead people back and everything else....doesn’t even phase me. Apparently it was serviced in the Long Island section of New York.

Going tomorrow to test drive.

If the wife wants it, what do you think the over/under should be for us to trade in her Ford Edge? 2016 sel with 87k on it?

[quote=""DCIV""]I’m not getting away from this, the wife wants a Tahoe and prob gonna want a brand new one but I would like to try and find a couple yr old one. Minus the cyl Deactivation what do I need to look for? 6 speed/8 speed? Stand alone cooler? Anyone help me on this as We will prob be spending mid 50’s by the time it’s all said and done and it’s got me worried. I have a couple months though.

2022 trucks are getting a revised cyl deactivation which promises to solve the issues of the current system. It was just announced this last week.

Say this about the price. You're getting what you pay for at least. GM seems to do a good job of setting their trim levels to fit various budgets. Have her drive/look/touch a lower trim as even they are coming well equipped.

The Elevation trim in my truck came with a heated steering wheel which is something I never knew I needed.... It even came with LED headlights and a rear window which was shocking for a mid-trim pickup.

Stop at Carmax for an appraisal before going there. They seem to be the ones giving the best prices for used vehicles these days. Take that appraisal with you to the dealer and use that to negotiate.

That’s where the Tahoe is. Kbb says 11,300 for trade in and 13,900 for individual sale, so if they come close to 11 I will prob take it. We owe like 7k on it so we are doing okay.

I wouldn't do any deal unless they give you at least $11,300 for the trade. I'd bet they put it on their lot for $14,999.
