I told my dealership to order me a 10' when they are available, they are saying Nov or Dec

 

'09 leftovers? Try '08s. And in my case, an '07 never previously titled that I bought back in April. I should have been wearing a ski mask and toting a pistol for what I paid. It had sat on the lot for almost 800 days! (Probably because it had fixed running boards, 18s, and an aftermarket navi head unit instead of a factory one) Don't buy that the inventory is drying up either, PLENTY of leftovers out there, just the older the model year the fewer there's going to be and the harder they'll be to find, but they'll sure be worth it...

 

Found the production info:

You will not see the amount of leftovers in 09' like 08', there were so many 08' sitting that many learned their lesson, and many dealerships closed too

 

I agree -- when my mom picked up her loaded Quicksilver '08 Escalade in late May for at 48k I told her that wouldn't ever happen again.. Then I stumbled across the '08 white EXT that was in NC and did the same thing again.. We saved 40k MSRP between them both..
