    Consider the hybrid

    I tried to support my local dealer and called him on the way to do this deal - he was supposedly selling one at $44k and I told him thanks, but no thanks. Mine was the fourth of four hybrids sold that morning (12/27) and it is ** o n l y ** 2wd. All the others were 08's and 4wd and went for $37k...

    Consider the hybrid

    I test drove the 5.3 and the 6.2 before deciding on the hybrid powertrain. I like to entertain myself whilst driving and I was very happy with the 23,000 miles I put on a Camry hybrid in 12 months. I did drive the 6.2 Surburban and loved the grunt and exhaust note. I drove the 5.3 and was...

    09 NAV disk missing?

    Please let me know if you can block out the XM stations you don't want to blunder through - there are some chat and music channels I don't need.

    09 NAV disk missing?

    New Nav disk installed - yeh! My hybrid was a GM auction unit and had 164 miles on it. The XM was working when I drove off in the car but quit after 21 days. I called XM and they showed no subscription set up and gave me 90 days free. Anyhow, before the new NAV disk and this second XM period, I...

    Replacing Hybrd lightweight aluminum wheels....feedback

    As far as I can tell my hybrid is getting 19 around town and 22+ on the highway depending on heaviness of foot. With 1000 miles on the odometer I got 24.5 on a 250 mile 2 lane trip across the ozarks from Rogers, AR through Eureka Springs to Mountain Home AR and back. Not soft pedalling - always...

    Pedderized the Tahoe!

    Very nice - how long did it take you, did you have help and was it a jack and wrench job (I'm not that experienced in these matters)? How much are these kits compared to the Eibach?

    09 NAV disk missing?

    Won mine on Ebay last night, paid for it and got the word from the seller he is mailing it Priority today (Friday). With any luck it will be here Tuesday. Can't wait!

    09 NAV disk missing?

    I realized I had the wrong NAV DVD before I left the dealership. According to them it's on backorder. I was wondering if other 09's were rolling out of the dealership in a like state. The dealer guys are pretty cool but I sure would like that NAV disk!

    09 NAV disk missing?

    Anyone else missing their NAV disk when they took delivery of their 09 GM vehicle? My delivery packet had a Cadillac disk that did not work. It was one of six needed in a Caddy. I'm still waiting three weeks later.

    Onstar Microphone Location in 08 Hybrid

    Yes it did. Some other features on the 09 changed. I'm still waiting on my NAV disk so I have to see the fully functional NAV that does not require the lockpic. I know I can't watch the DVD without the lockpick but I'm not bothered by that. I've not even called the Onstar/Verizon line. I use...

    Onstar Microphone Location in 08 Hybrid

    I have an 09 and 'other end' of my calls hear me best when I am talking towards the front glass. The mic (AFAIK) is in the grille right next to my sunroof switches adjacent to the front interior lights. My wife, son (from the back seat) and I had a good conversation with my Mum (she's in...

    radar detectors

    I have a V1 hotwired in my wife's Cooper S convertible using the wiring for the mirror and wanted to do the same for my Tahoe hybrid. Anyone tell me which is the hot wire to use so that it comes on with the turn of the ignition key?

    Winter tires / sliding

    If the truck can get up the driveway it should be able to go down the driveway. Without seeing it and/or driving it, it's tough to gove you any more advice. Are you getting up and down it okay in whatever you are driving? Suggest you clear the last twenty feet of the driveway and advise family...

    Aftermarket HID Install Beware

    We have auto levelling on our Mini Cooper S - very cool watching them do their 'salute' at startup in the garage.

    Rear Hatch Extremely Dirty

    Hybrid wing? I have an 09 Hybrid with cleaned up aero. No dirt probably due to less aero drag. I'll check next time I am close to a late model Tahoe/Hybrid and see if the rear aero wing on mine is similar to the standard on non-hybrids. As I noted yesterday in the hybrid thread, my 09 has a...

    gm molded trailer hitch closeout

    So how do avoid bruising when you load and unload through the rear door? :hlp: Also, mine takes up a lot of garage space and as I prefer to back in due to the access I have at my house, every time I walk by the dang thing, I'd bang into it.:rolleyes:
