I traded on my 2017 Tahoe Premier I had 52k miles on it in less than 2 years nice suv no complaints except my wife wanting more room

Considered buying a suburban and Cadillac ESV checked out the Navi L I just could not resist the 2019 Expedition Max FX4 great looking in red and the price was about 10k less than a limited and 30k less than a Navi L

I’m happy

I'm always amazed how many buy the shorter Tahoe and Expedition non-max. The difference is huge as far as usability! You will love the extra room and the Expedition!

I think the Tahoe/Yukon looks much better than the Sububa /Yukon XL. Especially the RST version.

Just helped my bro in law with a full detail and this thing is a beast.

Those are some of my favorite wheels in the car industry right now. I am not a GM guy by any means, but the Yukon/Tahoes are good looking vehicles...especially the RST Tahoes.

Congrats on the new addition. I looked at the Tahoe (along with others) and just couldn't do it. I was pretty much a GM guy, but Expy won me easily. My sister in law has a Tahoe and loves it. I just thought it looked cheap inside, kinda old and the fit and finish just wasn't up to par. I'll say it again, I love my Expy and have zero regrets.

We made the same trade almost a year ago. Traded our ‘17 Premier Tahoe for a ‘19 Platinum Expedition. No regrets, other then we miss the rear DVD system in the Tahoe. I was looking forward to a rear dvd system that let me use the rear view mirror, but the Ford system absolutely sucks with little kids. The space and driving characteristics are way better in the Expedition, even my wife has grown to like it. The Tahoe/Yukons are sharp looking tho!

Yeah, we’ll be doing iPads on the next one as well. We liked the Limited (my wife preferred the gray interior), but I have a Platinum pickup and I wanted them the same trim level. ‍♂️

We test drove the Limited skipped the platinum test drive Navi L between Limited and XLT not worth the extra $10k by the time you get to the platinum you might as well but the Navi the Navi blows away the Cadillac Escalade I was tempted to buy it it’s would have been an amazing deal but my wife was not comfortable in it unfortunately Lincoln did not have any special programs so I decided on the XLT picked it up 20% off MSRP :)

That's because the suburban stole leg room from the third row to give to the storage area. That's why only kids and midgets are happy in the third row on the GM SUVs.
(and this is coming from a lifelong GM guy)

The 5.3L in the Tahoe is gutless. Unless you pony up for the 6.2L, this Ecoboost will waste it in a hurry no matter how good it sounds!

I understand but I was talking about the extended warranty planning on keeping it for at least 150k miles
