  I sure can, Philip. Here you go. If you were to lease a 2006 Chevrolet Tahoe through GMAC right now for 36 months with 15,000 miles per year, its base lease rate and residual value should be 7.5% and 60%, respectively. the numbers for an otherwise identical 48 month lease should be 7.5% and 52%.

  Hey Car_man, In addition to the 2007 Tahoe info I requested in my previous post, can you also please post the lease information on a 2006 Chevrolet Tahoe Z71. I would be interested in residuals and money factors (or lease rates) for 36, 39, 42 and 48 months at 15k miles per year. Thanks for all your help! Philip

  Hi silver636. General Motors just introduced a new lease program on this truck today. If you were to lease a 2006 Chevrolet Tahoe through GMAC right now for 36 months with 12,000 miles per year, its base lease rate and residual value should be 3.5% and 57%, respectively. As you can see, GMAC publishes lease rates instead of money factors for the vehicles that it leases. You can convert lease rates ... Read More

  GM is redesigning all it's full size pickups and SUVs to stay competitive. If you've seen the pictures of the 2007 Tahoe and Yukon, you know they've done a pretty good job on the outside and inside. The Suburban/Yukon XL/ESV are coming at a bad time for GM, as gas prices are high, and Ford is bringing back a large competitor based on the Expedition. All these new GM trucks and ... Read More

  link title "The Hydra-Matic 6L80 debuts in the 2006 Chevrolet Corvette, Cadillac STS-V and Cadillac XLR-V. It will be featured in 25 different 2007 model-year vehicles, including several of GM’s new full-size sport utility vehicles." So the new Tahoe might start with a 4 speed but be updated later? or maybe its optional?

  Well, the current Tahoe/Yukon date back to 2000 when they were completely overhauled. They have been tweaked here and there, but there's no hiding their age. The next generation Yukon/Tahoe really have to be good to compete against the Expedition/Armada/Sequoia and the other numerous crossovers. In addition to redesigning the Tahoe/Yukon, GM is also redesigning the Silverado, Sierra, Escalade, EXT, ESV, Avalanche, Suburban and Yukon XL. They will be on sale ... Read More

  what I heard is that it will include a few 2006 models. I wouldn't be surprise to see Tahoe on the list since the redesigned '07 is supposed to come out in early 2006 (or so I hear). The more units they can turn out using the current tooling, the better for Chevy's bottom line. Looks to me like the 05 and 06 have the same MSRP's (at least at the ... Read More

  I saw a small pic in the Sunday Chicago Tribune showing an artist rendering of the 2006 Tahoe. It was a copy of a pic that looks like it ran in Popular Mechanics (according to the credits). It showed a restyled front end with a huge gaping grill area (ala Chrysler 300C and the new Audi styling). Overall more evolutionary than revolutionary, but I found this open grill design hard to ...
