Default what are the big gas guzzlers selling for?

Tahoe in particular, looking at an 09 that has a dealer retail price of $35300 on edmonds, dealer is asking 38600, trade in is listed as $29250, it is in vgc, I was thinking $32000, what do you think?

Pete - I just paid 25 out the door at Charles Barker Lexus for a mint condition 07 LTZ with 58k on it.

I paid a little bit of what I consider a premium since the car fax showed ALL the maintenance and oil changes and then on top of that the prior owner had EVERY single record, perfectly kept once we went and looked at the car. Right down to service tags from the dealer explaining that the owner had brought his own Oil in for the dealer to use. This one was also the "Amber Wheat (or Golden Amber - I can't really remember)" color which I REALLY loved.

We have been getting about 17-18 mpg.

Not sure if that helps but thought I'd throw it out there.

I wouldn't consider a newer Tahoe a gas guzzler. Pretty good mileage.

Not to mention its a sipper compared to boats.

Very true, we have one that really only gets driven around town and it gets 18mpg or so.

I have an 05' Z-71 and get around 16 around town. I have e tune done by Blackbear Performance and it made the thing really cool to drive. Shifts better, throttle response better and got .5-1mpg better. I've heard on the tahoe forums that they are doing tunes for the new tahoe that keep it in 4cyl mode for an additional 30 seconds or so which is getting guys 20 in town.

my $.02

I agree, they seem to get good mileage but when I trying to negotiate they are big gas hogs nobody wants.

Seaford, thanks, depending on all the options you have you roughly NADA paid trade in price, correct?

I also have a friend that just bought a 07 Burb LTZ w/ 95K for 22K

Pete how many miles on the Tahoe? Price seems a little high to me.

For some reason used vehicle prices are up.

35K miles on the one in the first post, it's a LT 4wd, leather, moonroof, rear dvd, back up camera, 20" rims,

Edmonds says 35K retail, 32500 private party and 29300 trade in.
