    Questions about the 2018 Chevy Tahoe

    I think the 2018 Tahoe 5.3 is six speed. If they make it with the 10 speed I would recommend getting that one. Back in 2016 I had my 2008 Escalade Sport for 8 years. I leased a 2016 Tahoe LT 5.3 with the 6 speed. I had a 4 year lease and I drove it for the first couple of thousand miles because...

    If you won the lottery and you could have any truck, what would you choose?

    Is it the actual dash that's cracked or the small piece towards the windshield? If you had a 2007-2014 Escalade I would be able to send you the main dash in Ebony for shipping cost. Patching it up will not make you happy. You could try car-parts.com. When you change it you should tint the...

    2017 Tahoe - AC went out, suggestions for what shop? (dealer or independent)

    If you live in southern Cali I have a guy who is experienced and inexpensive. I bought my 2008 Escalade to him. I thought I was going to have to buy a new compressor. I actually took $1000 with me. The mechanic hooked it up to a machine and I heard the machine make a popping sound every 15...

    If you won the lottery and you could have any truck, what would you choose?

    I would keep my 2018 Luxury and buy a 2020 Platinum in crystal white & black interior. I would find one with the lowest miles. I would give my 2018 to my wife or son. There is no better truck than the 2018-2020 k2xx. Denali, RST, or Escalade. I might also buy the ESV for road trips. I love my...

    Mechanic Recommendations Needed : Wash DC area

    What is wrong with your Escalade? I may be able to tell you what to do depending on what the issue is. I hired a driveway mechanic to change my upper/lower control arms, sway bar bushings, brakes, steering rack and stock absorbers. I purchased the parts locally or online than call the mechanic...

    What would you do?

    I would order the parts needed and fix my truck right away. That is probably all I could do without going back to jail. I would be pissed and I would check to see if any bugs or tracking devices was put on my truck.

    I saw this a few years back and saved it. I think this is amazing to know our trucks can pull something so massive.

    Rear Brake upgrade, worth it?

    I am thinking of doing the same. Did you use the 2021 and up 6 piston calipers and rotors? Could you tell me what to do and is it worth it? I am going to need pads soon for my front.

    MyGMC app looks like it got a makeover, I can’t send addresses to my Yukon anymore. Am I missing something?

    I like the update which is easier too. You can select turn by turn or send to nav. I like that you can select apple maps or google maps. You have four different options for navigation now.

    Test drove an 17 Escalade

    I would not get the 2015-2017 8-speed. I have the 2018 Escalade Luxury with the 10-speed and it is awesome. I have not had anything weird happen with my 10-speed. I purchased my 2018 last year with 48k. I did have lifter failure at 79k but most second-hand Escalades are lease returns so the...

    2018 Denali/Lifter failures and much more

    My lifters failed on the passenger side on my 2018 Escalade at 79k last fall. I canceled my extended warranty from GM to get $3500 sent back to my bank. When I have my 2008 Escalade with the same GM warranty and needed from struts I was told it’s not covered because it is a wear and tear item...

    AFM Lifter Failure Average Mileage?

    I had lifter failure at 79k on my 2018 Escalade last fall. I am not the original owner. I bought my Escalade with 48k. I am thinking the previous owner changed the oil when the DIC said too. I can say that changing the oil at >20% will help. I didn’t use Dexos 1 gen 2 or 3 when I did my oil...

    Getting back into a full size SUV.

    Stay away from the 8 speed. I would check to see if the lifters have been replaced and if they have not then I would replace the vlom with the updated part. If you want to go further then replace the passenger lifters as well. I have not seen the driver side lifters to fail on this generation...
