Size Matters- Picking Up 2025 Premium + Next Week (1 Viewer)

[Frobie]

Excited to be picking up 2025 Prem Plus (Caviar, Saddle) after 7+ month on the waiting list. During the interim,
purchased a new Suburban. Size matters. Wife really loves the Suburban. If she is required to pick one, I am thinking it will be the
larger of the two. Given I choose to sell the GX550, will dealers / Carmax buy it back at a premium? Should I sell by owner? Thank you
for your wisdom and input!

The waiting list is getting shorter and shorter across the board. The car market is slowing down and I think dealer inventory of GX550s will be a thing in the future.

Congrats on the Suburban. Ultimate road trip vehicle.

I considered taking delivery on one recently just to use as a trading chip on another car I was looking at. Made a couple of calls and found out that juice isn't worth the squeeze. On a "new" OT+ you would be lucky to get original MSRP back. Not sure about Premium+ but it certainly would not be any better.

You don’t have to take it. I had deposits on two and was able to get my deposit back on the one I didn’t buy. I’m sure the dealer can sell it to another buyer in about five minuets. Why risk the hassle. If you don’t want it just don’t take it and ask for your deposit back

Thank you! You "MADE A COUPLE CALLS"....who might I call in my area to see what the value might be after I drive it home 200 miles?
I thought about posting on Social Media that I had one and if anyone is interested to call me. Any thoughts?

Fair point....I know I can get my deposit back. Thank you
