Hey..very close to buying one of these but just curious if anyone has one or spent some time in one, and would be willing to share how you like it. Thanks

poser007 03-26-2007 10:01 PM

My brother just bought one and let me say....nicest SUV on the road. The thing is a mastepiece. Buy it

ponte_06_x2 03-26-2007 10:25 PM

i have a 07 ukon. i love it to death. it turns like a car into parkin spots. handles like a small suv and also tows my 06 x2 perfectly. its real nice. ive owned a 02 denali and a 03 caddie esca.this one blows them out of the water.

rallyart 03-26-2007 10:41 PM

Old ones are great, new ones are better. <BR>The AWD is a major plus for that alone it should be bought. Take the time to compare with the Escalade and enjoy whatever you get.

chrissocal 03-26-2007 10:53 PM

Art I did check out the Escalade and I loved it, but a little spendy for me. <BR> <BR>Im currently trying to negotiate a good deal with my dealer. My only options are sunroof and 20's and were at about 46, mspr is 51,500 ish. Do you think thats good? There are so many Denali's in inventory and with the gas prices I can't see them moving too fast.

ridininmd 03-27-2007 6:38 AM

shoot me over a PM with the VIN and your Zip code. I'll pull invoice and incentives for ya, price doesn't sound too bad though.

kmcginty 03-27-2007 7:14 AM

My cousin has one, and i spent some time in it this weekend. It was amazing. I couldnt believe how quick it was (he has a lead foot), plus it was almost silent at highway speed.

evil0ne 03-27-2007 7:54 AM

Price sounds pretty good. I always take a look at the price quoted on <a href="http://www.CarsDirect.com" target="_blank">CarsDirect.com</a> and tell people to be under that price by $1K if you want to know you got a "deal".

entrustclothing 03-27-2007 9:53 AM

i love my 03 denali, i can only imagine how nice the new 07 is, i refuse to look at one closely cause i know i will want one then <IMG SRC="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/happy.gif" ALT=":-)" BORDER=0>

surfnfury65 03-27-2007 11:22 AM

We have an 06 Denali and our friends just bought an 07. They got one with a 4" lift and Dubs. Both are awesome vehicles. They have moor then enough power to tow and the ride is super smooth with the air ride in the back. I also have a 99 GMC Burb with 100K miles. Knock on wood but I have never had any problems with it. <BR>Wadd$

jaubrey 03-27-2007 2:18 PM

Can't go wrong with The General!

jnewcom 03-27-2007 2:47 PM

I bought an 07 last may, and its the best tow vehicle so far I have ever driven. Before this I had a 02 denali which was good, but it got alot better. In the tow/haul mode on the new denali, it actually downshifts when puting on the brake to help stop. The new 6 speed tranny is alot better as well. You'll love it.

supra24ssv 03-27-2007 3:15 PM

i love my 07, traded my 03

ryanandlea 03-27-2007 3:32 PM

I looked at Denali but GM had some smokin lease promo for the 07 Escalade. Navi screen a little bigger, little more wood trim. The reverse camera makes hookin up the boat a breeze!!

x2fanatic 03-28-2007 6:28 AM

Love my 07. We tow our boat long distances, over mountains to get to water and its like the boat isn't even behind us. Plus the back up camera, the nav, the upgrades to the 07 interior is amazing. We have had our about 9 months, no problems at all.

entrustclothing 03-28-2007 8:53 AM

ryan if you don't mind me asking what were the terms on the lease? i know ive seen ford do some crazy leases but haven't seen much from GM,

migs 03-28-2007 11:39 AM

Love my 05 Denali, and Love my 06 Yukon(with off road package)! <BR>Cant convince me that there is anything better if you own a boat and hit the snow in the winter. <BR>CANT BE BEAT! <BR>Power, Strength, Comfort, Looks, Safety, Affordability, Reliability, Class, &amp; NO SAGGY BUTT when towing! <BR>You gotta love it. <BR><img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/messages/65921/429114.jpg" alt="Upload"> <BR><img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/messages/65921/429115.jpg" alt="Upload">

My '07 Denali suprises me all the time. Like the other day when I hooked up the trailer and I heard what sounded like an air compressor going...DAMN...it was auto-leveling the rear end. I honestly didn't even know it had that option, what a TRIP!!! <BR> <BR>I had an '05 HUMMER H2 and the Denali totally blows it away in power, comfort, luxury options, etc. I loved my H2, but the Denali is just plain SICK!

tyboarder03 03-29-2007 11:14 PM

Then again maybe you didn't read the weight of the H2 on the door... its damn near 10,000 lbs

jarrod 03-30-2007 5:45 AM

The Hummer is a 3/4 ton drive train isn't it? That's why it's so heavy?

tyboarder03 03-30-2007 8:49 PM

correct

johnsvt 03-30-2007 9:47 PM

Curb weight of H2 is around 6400 vs. 5600 for denali plus H2 only gets 325hp vs 380ish for denali. H2 should suck wind in comparison to Denali.

grantline 03-30-2007 10:36 PM

Bought an 07 for my wife for xmas. We love it. Just wish they offered air conditioned seats like the Escalade.

tyboarder03 03-31-2007 12:57 AM

This one will beat any 07 denali<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/proud.gif" border=0><img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/messages/65921/430106.jpg" alt="Upload">

dabigkahuna 03-31-2007 2:03 AM

Tyler, I like your Yellow H2, it's the same color as my old H2, ha ha! Don't get me wrong, the H2 is a bad ass machine, and I loved the way it looked, the way it drove, and most everything in between. The Denali isn't better than the H2, it's just different. I personally get way more enjoyment out of driving my Denali than I got out of driving my H2. But, again, both vehicles kick serious ass!

tyboarder03 03-31-2007 11:03 AM

This ones just modded A LOT so it really cant be compared to a stock H2 at all. I agree I wouldn't want to drive an H2 if it had to stay stock they'd be to sluggish.

brucemac 03-31-2007 6:49 PM

if you're at 46 with all options then that sounds like a pretty good deal. i paid 45 for our 06 denali xl with every option and 20s. <BR> <BR>we LOVE it. good luck.

supra24ssv 03-31-2007 7:47 PM

tyler you don't drive it, it is your MOMS right

cadiwake 03-31-2007 11:32 PM

The denali out drives the hummer any day of the week. power, top end and looks.. Sorry just my personal thought

tyboarder03 04-01-2007 3:46 AM

Thats right supra... but I do drive it many times

supra24ssv 04-01-2007 5:25 AM

just giving you crap man, no harm intended <BR>have you driven a 07 denali yet

tyboarder03 04-02-2007 3:18 AM

No but have driven an 05 Denali XL with 8.1

supra24ssv 04-02-2007 5:08 AM

go test drive a 07, you will love it

hudd007 04-02-2007 7:33 PM

Anyone know the difference between 2007 Tahoe, Slade, and Denali? Something that one offers that the other doesn't? I know it goes Tahoe, Denali, then Slade as far as price, options, quality but it seems like the Tahoe and Denali aren't too far behind in options but WAY better in price. <BR> <BR>Opinions?

x2fanatic 04-02-2007 7:58 PM

Horsepower is a consideration. Escalade has the most, then Denali then Tahoe. Besides the obvious styling, we felt the Denali was a good compromise.

trump 04-02-2007 8:26 PM

I know the Escalade runs on Premium. At least the last time I checked. IMO, if you don't mind spending more money on gas get the Escalade. Otherwise I would go with a Denali, Tahoe/Yukon. Just my opinion.
