and others that commented on this subject. romos is correct, page 483 states 20 inchers are not meant for off-road.
I thought I had read my manual thouroughly, but sure did miss that so my previous comments were wrong.
I'll still do my version of off-roading, which is mild stuff, and pretend I don't know any better.
Thanks again romos.
I will let you know if your advice works/helps...again thanks for the assist.
FYI, just found a site with HID direct replacement (for H13)yesterday (pretty pricy). URL below:

Also - another dealer is offering me a '07 Tahoe 3LT Z71 4.4 with all the bells and whistles for $44k - and I'm still working on him to sharpen his pencil more.
So - those of you out there - do you like your Tahoes? And do you feel either of these are a good deal. The sooner you can answer me the more I will appreciate it. Thank you very much!!! (I loathe buying new vehicles. . . you just feel like you get beat up all the time - my husband better LOVE this surprise).
As for the prices you're quoting, it all depends on the options. If the 4X4 Z71 (what I have) has the Nav system, sunroof, and LT3 package, and a few other goodies, I'd say it's a good price. Same with the non-Z71. Good luck!!

I'm holding out for the last day of the month to see if they go any lower.
I was successful with calling around and giving the price quotes I was receiving from other dealers. Now, it's based on who does the best job with making the final process go smoothly.
Just for comparison purposes, I looked on Autotrader.com and found 2007 Tahoe with up to 20k miles for more than what I can purchase new.
I recently purchased a new motorcycle for my husband, trust me, it's not the color that's most important, it's the full package and the surprise!
Good Luck!
Took it in to have limo tint on the windows from the second seat back and darker tint on the driver's front and passenger front. I also wanted the tint ont the front windshield down about 6-8 inches but was advised that is where all the navigation goodies are and they couldn't do it. The Denali is fully loaded with the navigation system, cameras, on star - the works - so we'll suffer through without the strip of tint. I can't imagine the navigation system going through the side windows and I have never heard any problems from friends who have Denali's and have ALL the windows limo tinted. Can't do that in Arizona though. Good luck!!!
For some reason the front of the Denali didn't catch my eye like the Tahoe, so I ordered my LTZ. I didn't think the side windows really mattered and wouldn't affect the high tech stuff, but just wanted to ask others who had it done to confirm. Thanks for the help, Dave
Where did you get your NAV/DVD bypass? Did you install and was it difficult?? How much did you pay?
Sorry for being nosey. I believe on previous posts, people were saying they were around $250. I'm just not sure I want to pay that much for the few times I might need it, but if it was in the $100-$150 range, I might go for it...THANKS.
Can't remember the price but very reasonable. the price is on their website.. they are great to deal with.
Good luck.. let us know how it comes out if you do it.
Good Luck !!
Removing the face plate involves a firm and steady pull at the various locations of the clips, yes it feels like you are going to snap it to pieces but it will come off.
Delivered the GEN3 was $260.

Many (all??) manufacturers have been installing these for some years. See this site for starters, or do a search for "Event Data Recorder" +automobile for more information.
Am I right??
Thanks
I called a local GMC service dept and they told me that the door becoming misaligned happens from time to time and that could I bring it on Monday so this would give them a week to realign it and touch up the paint. I was told that GM would not pay for a loaner car for me over the weekend if I would have dropped it off and they didn't get it back out to me.
?? Has anyone else had either of these problems? :shades:
Your issue sounds like a defect and I would definitely NOT take the GMC service department story of it "happening from time to time" as a good excuse. To me that's BS. ..and I would be raising a stink all the way to GMC corporate office if necessary. I have never heard of such a thing happening. Also - the loaner vehicle should be something that they do. We carry the additional coverage through our insurance carrier State Farm - in case of something like this. You need to have a coming to Jesus meeting with the sales manager. When you pay $50k for a vehicle - you expect some better treatment. Good luck and let us know how you made out.

I find that hard to believe. Usually what misaligns a door is another vehicle's bumper....as in a collision. I can't see how your problem could happen unless a hinge or some part of the door frame broke. And your rear light assembly is held on to the body with screws....not tabs. Something strange happening here....and it ain't exactly clear!!!!
I found out that its GM's policy to only pay for a rental if the warranty work is on a safty issue (engine, seatbelts, breaks... stuff like that). Other defects you're without your car on your own dime. I've talked to GM customer care about it and that's what they said.
For the most part the truck is great, just a few little things... y'know... Anyone else notice the problem with the Delayed lock or the vibrating side view mirror?
I'm actually on my 2nd LTZ as I had to Lemon Law my first one!!! :lemon: I purchased one of the 1st LTZ's made back in March of 2006 and the problems began the night I drove it off the lot...No really...I had problems with the truck less than a mile away from the dealership. I'll spare you the details, but I did finally get a replacement LTZ this past April.
Now the good news...I've had absolutely NO problems with the new truck!!! We've got about 7000 miles on it and it's been perfect. Just got back from a 3000 mile family vacation up the East Coast and back to Florida.
I guess I should have known better than to be one of the first to own the truck as I heard a LOT of bit**ing and moaning from several people here on this board back when I was having my problems over a year ago. Sounds like they worked out MOST all the problems that I and others had with the first production units!!
Although I had my problems...I LOVE my LTZ and would highly recommend it to anybody in the market for a HOT SUV !!!
BTW...I ordered the GMX-320 LockPick and the IPOD LockPick interface and I am anxiously awaiting their arrival. Will keep you posted on that as well. Have a great weekend. :shades:
Let them know and surely they'll give you one.. Good Luck !! Oh... we had no cargo net... not an option that I know of.. I use a couple of foldable boxes.. they work great.
just recently i reprogrammed the ECU and added a cold air intake which has increased the power a little bit but i've had to start filling up with premium which would be expensive if i drove the truck everyday
and tell them of the updates to the roads you have found.
We miss the cargo net too (like the 2004 Z71 had). I don't believe one is available.
I did not get an update disc on my 1st anniversary. I went to the web site you gave and could not access without a "control number." Where do i get the control number.
Don
The way it is supposed to work (as I understand it), you should receive a card from the Nav Disc Center in the mail with a control number on it, on or near that anniversary date. That is what you need to order it. On the web site, at the bottom, there are 3 options: Buy a Disc, Update Owner information, and Order a Subscription. Make sure your owner information is correct/updated. Once I had done that, I received a letter in the mail from the Nav Disc Center with an update to the owners manual and an explanation about the 2 free updates. I wasn't eligible yet since I've only had my Tahoe for 3 months. I recommend that once you update, give them a call at 1-877-NAV-DISC (1-877-628-3472) and tell them you need a control number, or maybe they can do everything for you over the phone and get the updated new disc out to you on-the-spot. Good luck!!
I heard the 6.2L might get flex fuel and that is about it. I'm still waiting for them to fix their horrid 3rd row situation. My wife needs a crane to get those seats out.
I don't know if a net is available on an '07...it was on the '06. Look around near the back of the vehicle in the area of the hatch for a couple of small, black plastic "knobs". The cargo net hooks onto these "knobs" by putting the mesh over them. Very simple, very easy. If the net is available on the '07 it usually comes with the cargo cover option. Many times these nets get lost in the sales/detailing shuffle. Ask your dealer for a free net....
