Iā€™m thinking I would do an Acadia over the Yukon. Lower price, better gas mileage, lighter, I would assume better handling, seems more car-like. I donā€™t really need to tow 8000 lb. But Iā€™ve never paid much over invoice (if any) for any of the 6 GM vehicles that Iā€™ve bought or helped buy. I think we need to take a whole weekend and start test driving and comparing. The spreadsheet is going to be huge for this. šŸ™‚ ---

Chevy Tahoe Hybrid 4wd? Just took a quick peak and it says it seats 8. Doesnā€™t look like you can get a z71 off-road package though, if that matters. 20/20 highway city mileage I believe it said. chris ---

TBSS doesnā€™t have a third row. Are the Tahoe Hybrids out yet? Looks like thereā€™s no pricing info yet. Gets 20/20 mpg for the 4WD - not sure thatā€™s enough to justify the extra cost of a hybrid, but Iā€™ll run the numbers. And Iā€™m not looking to feel good about myself for driving a hybrid. šŸ™‚ ---

Comfortable, seating for 7 or more, fold & go seating (all seats fold flat into the floor), and many other conveniences. It only gets about 14-15 mpg around town, though & 21-23 mpg on the highway. I am sure the Honda or Toyota vans would be easier on fuel than the Dodge. The Dodges donā€™t really have a great resale value, so they can be picked up cheap. ---
