    no heated Windshield on a $90k SUV?

    What heater blades are you adding? I wonder if adding additional heating elements to the base of the windshield and wiring them in will fix this issue? I live in the southern US so we rarely (if even) hit -10°C (14°F for the Americans on here lol), but as someone familiar with the Land...

    2nd engine failure, waiting since Oct 17/2024

    To add to it too, these engines have been around for so long, one would think the bugs would have been worked out.

    I need shoes!!!

    Falken and Michelin are the two I have experience with on this list. I had Falken Wildpeak ATs and they were good. I definitely prefer the BFGoodrich AT3/4 that I have run on my trucks since then but I have no issue with them. Michelin LTX were the best on road tire I have ever had. Quiet...

    Good sir, I expect nothing less of you than to nit-pick my posts. Thank you for the clarification on the yr/model. I was not 100% confident. You really are a wealth of info regarding these trucks. Cheers!

    Consensus on transmission service interval?

    I like the QEW. It is definitely a marvel of a road. I was just up in Toronto a few months ago and the new stretch that goes North is amazing.

    I think so. I believe it’s the 11.5” ring gear but don’t quote me on that.

    Consensus on transmission service interval?

    I’m not really sure how to respond to the last three comments other than I’m glad the stock tires have been changed out for higher performance tires. I think everyone’s level of comfort with trailering is different and speed should be approached from conditions given in the situation...

    Towing a trailer

    2500 Suburban production ended in 2014 and 3500 ran 2015-2019. 2500 you could buy at a dealership but not many stocked them. They were substantially more than a normal Suburban (also could get a GMC Yukon version too). 3500 were for fleet buyers only. You could not roll up and order one as a...

    The 3500 have the 14bolt rear end off a 3500 Silverado. It’s not apples to apples but it’s beefy. If I’m not mistaken I think the rear ends in 2500/3500 Silverados are identical as well, biggest difference is suspension which allows for the higher capacity rating. **over simplification The...

    Consensus on transmission service interval?

    I understand that everyone has their own driving habit… and I’m not telling you to be different than you, but make sure you are not exceeding the speed rating of your tires. I think stock the speed rating is only for 95 or 100mph. I would be less concerned with the fluids and more concerned...

    no heated Windshield on a $90k SUV?

    Make sure you have your climate control set to Auto so when you do the remote start it will auto-heat/cool to that temp. I think this makes a difference as well.

    Blackbear Performance Review

    I’m not gonna lie… unless it’s a financial thing, don’t wait. They made the truck so much better and I didn’t know it was missing so much. On my thread about the 3500 Suburbans we were saying GM tuned the trans for “comfort” but that isn’t true. They just did not do a great job of tuning the...

    Blackbear Performance Review

    Hello All, I have read a few threads on here where people had similar reservations that I did to doing the @BlackBearPerf tune. It’s does seem complicated having to download and flash and alter your truck’s “brain” for better performance. I want to go through the process I had and give some...

    Warranties. Aren’t they great? Nothing fails when you have them but 1 mile over… boom. Lol

    Consensus on transmission service interval?

    Like the engine (in most cases) you do oil changes because maintenance is cheaper than replacement.

    Consensus on transmission service interval?

    Are the new transmissions “sealed for life” or are they easily drained and filled?

    Rear facing Carseat with seat back entertainment screens?

    Not many out there with delivery of their 25s yet. Would recommend bringing your car seat to the dealer and seeing if they will do a test fit.

    2nd engine failure, waiting since Oct 17/2024

    I am not an expert on the subject but I believe Lemon Law does not necessary have age limits so you likely will be able to apply for it. It’s super unfortunate that you rolled the dice and it did not work… twice no less. I hope it gets resolved for you.

    @j91z28d1 is right there are a lot of heavy towers on here but most have the 3/4 ton Suburban. They really are built a lot more stout than the normal Burbs and Yuks. You are correct a good hitch setup will make a difference but keep it legal and keep it safe.
