Haven't had a chance to watch yet but thanks for posting Munro does some pretty detailed teardown videos,

GM is doing upgraded versions of this too. The Escalade IQ is basically a next step up version of this, as will be the Suburban/Denali EVs I suspect.

So recent news is the LYRIQ (along with the Blazer EV, the MachE and some other models) are losing the tax credit starting 01/01/2024. Apparently it's due to a "minor part" that puts them under the minimum percentage of the build.

GM claims they'll have it fixed in "early 2024" but in the interim they will cover the $7,500 at least on the LYRIQ. That makes sense given the number they have in lots waiting to ship.

So, at this point, I'm up to $13,500 off MSRP at the point of sale should mine ship.

It's been built and I have a VIN at this point.

Look what showed up at the dealership today on a "surprise" delivery truck (dealer did not know it was coming in)... Decision points just got real... (dealer text photo).

Sorry to see you go, but in five years, (if this site is even still around) make sure to get back with us and let us know what kind of issues you have with the new ride. I know you put a lot of mileage on your cars and I am curious to find out if the normal problems that plague GM vehicles will be solved with electrification, or if any unforseen new problems will arise.

I'm not planning on going anywhere, still checking in daily, although not as frequently.

Most of the problems people have seen so far with the LYRIQ have been software issues. Those get worked out over time.

As far as GM, I may not be the best to judge since I have owned at least 4 GM vehicles that went well over 200K miles with no major issues. (2 Astros, 1 Suburban I still own, 1 Lumina LTZ)
