Using our Credit Union, cap cost is same, no down, money factor is .003450, interest rate of 8.16%, monthly pay with tax is 847.96.
My dealer did not recommend going the lease route for this unit (I have yet to lease a vehicle anyway!) so I just wrote a check for the thing instead.
Hope this is of some help.

Hopefully they will have the Auto Climate nailed down on the sunroof and also the pest problem of cold feet for the passenger.
Definitely needs the trim tabs to avoid lift off not to mention chine walk, but it sure is a great ride in warm weather and calm waters on the either the lakes of western PA or on Barnegat Bay, NJ.

CatchAlls: has anyone ordered these mats for a Denali XL? For those of you that purchased them for a '01 Suburban or Yukon XL, are you satisfied with them? What other brands did you compare to and what are the advantages of the CatchAll brand versus others?
2000 GMC Yukon Denali to Michelin tires after
6000 miles... I had complained to GM that the
Firestone tires where unacceptable on delivery
in August 2000 The Firestone tires gave me a soft
ride. I find the difference terrific and handling
improved.
Why yes... Every day I drive the sucker, I wish I had a good place for my sunglasses! I will really be steamed if GM starts to put full consoles in the DXL's! My DXL was built 1/8/01, and I have yet to see any in Salt Lake City that have the extended console... Does anyone have a part# for the Gray ext console?

Why yes...BUT the manufacturer is supposed to drop ship them to me weeks ago. They hadn't shown up when I picked my DXL up in Idaho, so the dealer said they would ship them to me for free. I paid $235 for the "Complete" end to end set. I called Monday, and the parts girl said they should be here by today. I will let you guys know how well (or bad) they fit.

I am in the same boat as Dave - '01 DXL picked up one week ago from dealer - no sunroof, two control areas in roof - one up front at windshield, the other 24" back, just beyond rear of front seats for the mid-row passengers. Didn't know that some have full length with the extra compartments - don't let the wife know (it's really her vehicle) 'cuz she, too, would appreciate the sunglass and tissue holders. Can't give you the build date right now since wife has it at work. Will call my dealer and get his story.
Bob
Thanks for your help.
In the mean time, any other mat suggestions would be appreciated in case we can’t get Nifty to change their mind and make the second row mat for the Denali XL.
Thanks
Nick
The dealer put 40psi in the tires, but the door plate says use 30psi? Do I increase the pressure with my boat in tow? Matts, I'll call on them also, I have buckets on the second row, has anyone found Matts to fit the Buckets???
The Numbers...
P265/75R/16
tire Diameter
2*(265mm*0.75%)+(16in*2.54mm/in) = 438.14mm
tire Circumference = Dia*Pi
438.14mm*3.1416 = 1376.46mm
P265/70R/17
tire Diameter
2*(265mm*0.70%)+(17in*2.54mm/in) = 414.18mm
tire Circumference = Dia*Pi
414.18mm*3.1416 = 1301.19mm
Circumference Ratio
1376.46mm/1301.19mm = 1:1.05785
At 2000RPM(tire), the spare tire will rotate 2115.7 times. Do the additional 115 rotations per minute cause damage to the differential after some period of time? I really don't know!
Is there a mechanically inclined reader out there who has factual knowledge about the "Denali's" pumpkins?
Dave
PS. The tire ALWAYS outranks the door plate psi ratings!
Also had queried dealer about the full size vs. two mini roof consoles on DXLs with no sunroof. He can find no information from GM reps that indicates it was ever possible to get a full size. I wonder if the guy's with the long one wasn't an aftermarket add-on?

It took exactly 30 minutes to pick up my DXL once I got there, and most of it was registering the On-Star system and putting on my ski rack! I can not recommend any salesman more than Robert Fink (1-800-635-8000). He gave me more personal attention than any sales person I have ever dealt with. And more importantly, he is very knowledgeable about the GM truck line.
They charge $220 + Co-op Ad fee over invoice. They only started charging the Co-op fee as of August 2000, and they fought GM for years over it... but finally lost. Both my mother and a buddy have purchased trucks up there. I know there is an option of delivery for $x?x per mile.
I live in Utah, and the free tank of gas got me 2/3 of the way home and I broke it in just before I got home.
Dave
PS. Tell Robert hi for me
From what I have read, they are "all" asembled at the Janesville plant, and mine for one confirms this!
Dave
Price quote for a Denali XL with center buckets is $43,492 + $69.50.
Thanks for the web site www.suv.s5.com. Everyone who is contemplating buying any vehicle should visit.
"Price quote for a Denali XL with center buckets is $43,492 + $69.50."
Don't forget the $159.00 Glaze fee
Dave
Hopefully a bigger gas tank....
Does any one know when they shut down production on the 01 and start on the 02?
Using a vin decoder which anyone can D/L from www.vinpower.com
it was determined that this vehicle was asembled in Mexico.
There are no choices in wheels when it comes to the Denali's.
Only options are 2nd row bucket seats, sunroof, and an engine block heater.... That's all.
Dave
41,499 + 414.94 (for AD fee) + 765.(Dest. Fee) = 42,673. Not a bad price. Local Taxes and title extra.
The current YXL mat will not fit properly in the 2nd row.
Or if anyone knows of any other good dealerships with good prices. Please let me know. Thanks
Eagle Alloy has a set at half the price.
American Racing Wheels have a few options.
Option is to polish the EM wheels.
I'm plan on putting Weld on mine when it arrives later mid April.
Thanks
I guess I'll live
Production for GM ends the 3rd week of June and is idle for 2 weeks for retooling each year. I would bet my bottom dollar that you will not see any real changes in the 2002 from the 2001, except for slight design flaws that they may have at the moment.
Dave
can you tell me how the AWD system has performed.
Thanks
Nick
The DXL was uneventful, unexciting and unstoppable. Which is exactly what I was hoping for. I came from a 3/4 ton 4x4 Suburban and by comparison the DXL was everybit as sure-footed as the 4x4, if not more so.
The DXL handled snow with little fanfare. It was difficult to even spin the tires in snow when hitting the throttle hard. I know, because I tried and the DXL just accelerated through the snow and slush as if the road was nearly dry.
There was little to think about and no need to remember to activate anything since it was active all the time. No need to turn off in dry conditions or when trying to negotiate tight turns like in a normal 4x4. Also no need to wait for transfer of power to the front tires during rear slippage such as in the Auto 4X4 setup in many 4x4 vehicles today.
The Denali AWD gives you a minimum of 38% of the power to the front tires all the time and moves more power forward if the rear slips.
I couldn't be happier with the performance in snowy conditions on pavement. I have had no experience off-roading in the DXL (nor am I likely to) and I am looking forward to the towing capabilities and handling of wet boat ramp conditions this summer.
