Back into a truck....05 Tahoe LT

Post your pics of your non-Bonneville, and If you have video footage, we want to see it. Videos must be hosted on external web space and hotlinked to PontiacBonnevilleClub.com. Also discuss mechanical problems regarding your non-bonneville (this is not another lounge, but posts don't count, random car vids not of your cars should be in the lounge)

We got $6500 for a 170k 02 Suburban LT a year ago, with the older style interior that was much more worn. I think Jake got a good deal. That truck should easily last another 150k. We have an 00 K1500 5.3L w/ over 300k on the original drivetrain.

After seeing them sell off our lot, that seems like a really good price. I know pickups go for a little more, but my father bought an 06 Silverado Crew Cab this summer with 110K on it for like $16,500, booked for $20,000.

BTW, an Intake will REALLY wake it up. The stock intake is really restrictive and muffled.

It seems like a really high price to me too. I guess I'm using our recent purchase of the Suburban as the benchmark. It sounds like I must have gotten a smoking buy!

I really like the color of that blue. Very sharp!

You also have to remember his area, the time of year, etc. That all has a huge impact. In May you can haggle a little bit on a truck, in December people are standing in line for 'em...

I think I got a hello of a deal. With those miles, all the stuff it has, etc, an average between NADA and KBB was about 17k. And I talked em down 1200 from the asking.

Yeah, you're running on however long it was paid for, whether it was a year or what. You can look it up on the SiriusXM website as to how long your radio has left. I love it, we have it in all of our vehicles.

Head unit will control ipods and iPhones, it also retains all factory features.

Super easy to install, I ran it down into my cupholder like this:

We got a free trial of XM and OnStar when we bought the Silverado. 3 months of XM, and 6 of OnStar, I think... maybe a year of OnStar. Wonder why you didn't get the same?

I imagine that is only on new vehicles, maybe certifieds also.

:stupid:

That's on new cars. If you call them and tell them you just bought the car, I think they'll give you a few months as a way to get you in.
