I’m afraid if I let this one go the next one might not quite feel right or worse be a turd or unreliable.
And I’ve been a licensed tech for over 25 years. Still if something works sooo good for me I find it tough to let go.
I replaced my Suburban with an Escalade. The Escalade is nice. The mighty Burban rode better, towed better, lacks in power but was definitely a better SUV.
I like the idea of a new warranty and fresh low mileage……. But then I think of new machinery we have replaced with old, only to wish you had the old back.
Know what I mean?
I'm in a similar boat, to a lesser degree.

Even if I could get the price I would want, I get attached (lame - I know), and, like you, haven't had any problems. I've had a single warranty item (replaced a seat cover back) and that's it. As far as I'm concerned, I took GM's car, and made it how I thought it should come, and it's about as perfect as I could want. I still have a couple smaller things in mind to do, but nothing Earth shattering. The car might have a couple idiosyncrasies, but it's like a personality to me, and I like that. Hell - I named him on the 500-mile drive from the dealership to home. LAME. OK. But that's me, and I can't escape that, LOL...
