The purpose of this web site is to provide an independant source of information about the new body style GMC Yukon, GMC Yukon XL, Chevrolet Tahoe, and Chevrolet Suburban. I have placed an order for a Yukon, hence my interest in these vehicles. After trying to gather information about the vehicle that I wanted to purchase, I found that there was not a good central source of information about these trucks. I decided to put together a web site to act as the central source of information and this site was born on 4/15/2000.
Information presented below has been gathered from a number of sources, including the Edmunds.com Town Hall forum, GM web pages, Aftermarket Supplier information, Personal experiences and Other people's experiences.
The information presented is done as a public service and not meant to defame or in any way cause anyone or any company damage. It is meant to help enhance the ownership experience and keep people informed as to what is happening in the real world. So if you find things listed to be wrong, offensive, or in any way not true, please contact me before taking legal action, so that I can correct the situation.
Editorial: These new design vehicles are nice, but for their price I feel that GM could have gone further with them. Options which are available on other GM vehicles should be made available on these vehicles. Examples of these include:
I would also like to see the option to select the brand of tires shipped on the vehicle. GM has greater buying power than I do as an individual, so they should be able to offer tire brands, like Michelins, at a low cost upgrade option instead of me having to eat the full cost of changing over brands of tires when I receive the vehicle.
For those of us who had to special order our vehicles, GM needs to improve how they handle the order process and provide status updates to the future owners. In this age of computers it is really bad that GM can't seem to track the shipment of vehicles once they leave the factory. This is an area that needs improvement.
As I said, this section is an editorial statement and I can only hope that someone from GM will read this and get the company to improve.
I am looking for information to include on this site. If you can provide any info that would be of help to people, please contact me. Thanks for visiting my web site and please come back often. If you have any comments or information, please contact me.
