    Oil consumption

    Done 3 changes, always right on full mark. Maybe check it once a month anymore. Has never been a concern….

    I only drive rural country roads, will RE-GEN function a-okay ?

    You’ll be fine. You probably wouldn’t have a huge cost savings over say a 5.3 but if you would like or prefer the engine, then go for it. I short trip mine for weeks on end and then take 100 mile blast. Never hear a thing out of her either way. I also second the fact that you don’t have to fill...

    Alexa app now available for 2022's?

    But she can get directions for you, which is what I use her for mainly, and send them to the Nav. She can also look up local businesses and etc. Overall, this is much more helpful than having it change your cabin temp. I don't need voice control of my HVAC or Music....

    2022 Tahoe w- 7950 miles dead in the road

    The engine that powers 90% of the 737's/ A320's (the world's most popular planes...) in the sky, the CFM-56-7 Has a mean time of 13500 hours before any unscheduled shop service requirement. (IE; check engine light comes on...) The average 737 logs 3000 engine hours per year. Thats over 4 years...

    2022 Tahoe w- 7950 miles dead in the road

    If aircraft engines broke down like some of these examples on here, there would be dozens of crashes daily of flights…. Sorry, but from someone who worked in Aerospace for 36 years, the quality and redundancy is much higher….

    One big flaw with 21 system is not being able to display/read out texts on the native software….. I don’t use AA/ACP….

    Poor Backup Camera

    I personally think this vehicle has the best camera system I've ever had in a vehicle....Maybe I haven't lived much..!

    2023 Tahoe Premier Does Not List DFM on the window sticker

    Ther is a dealer here in FL that advertises the same thing, but in fine print it says you have to change your oil WITH THEM every 3k miles or warranty is void. You can bet if any dealer offers a lifetime warranty on anything, there is sure to be a catch that you won't qualify for...

    2021 Denali - Vehicle Knock, Stutters, Surges, Rough Acceleration - In Auto Mode, After Lifting Rods Replaced

    yes, It is not “all wheel drive“. It’s all wheel drive when it detects slippage then it becomes all wheel drive. Intermittently, in and out as needed. The front drive train is not engaged until slippage is detected even though it’s in auto. “All wheel drive” implies that it’s all wheel drive...

    Shaking in new '22 Yukon. Just breaking it in or a real problem?

    Yep, that is a good bet.... You don't want these crappy tires back. Taking your life in your hands in rainstorms......

    Any good tail light replacements?

    Yep they spray tinted mine and they look awesome. Completes the blackout look and can’t be damaged….

    buying 23 suburban LS diesel maybe

    When parking on slight inclines, or any reason why you would need an intermediary parking break, my park, light illuminates, and hold the vehicle right where I am. I have to tap the throttle to let it break loose.

    buying 23 suburban LS diesel maybe

    Has anybody ever actually witnessed and seen their vehicle brake hard for emergency braking? I have seen the red light flash, but I have never actually seen or felt the brakes engage.

    Surprise! Two diesel orders are on their way to me

    There are some definite product improvements in the LZ0, but by and large they are essentially the same engine. No showstoppers that would say to have one over the other. If you have either one, consider yourself lucky....

    2021 Denali - Vehicle Knock, Stutters, Surges, Rough Acceleration - In Auto Mode, After Lifting Rods Replaced

    Then it sounds more like a front driveline/transfer case issue. A savvy dealer should be able to isolate that and/or detect a problem….

    2021 Denali - Vehicle Knock, Stutters, Surges, Rough Acceleration - In Auto Mode, After Lifting Rods Replaced

    Does the vehicle exhibit the same problems in 2wd? If not, at least your problem is isolated to the drivetrain. If so, it could be a tranny software issue. It should be driven with a monitor hooked up to is to see what the output of the engine and tranny are under load. Who knows what got...

    Power assist steps - grip

    As an opinion, you need to train yourself to step up on to these to get in and out… not come at them at an angle in or out. I’ve had them 2 years and never slipped on them once. I step up and in and on them flat to get out. I agree that they are a potentially Slippery composition though….

    Can anyone recommend a dealer to order from who aggressively discounts?

    Except most dealer in FL have a 1500.00 dealer fee. FL Dealers charge some of the most "Fees" I have ever seen a dealer get away with....

    Lost my beloved 2001 to Hurrican Ian

    Yep, we drove both of our vehicles to Ft Lauderdale to save them, thank God we did. My neighbor stayed ( he usually doesn’t even put up shutters, says they are never as bad as they say…) He was dragging them out on Tuesday night in the driving rain. Barely got them up…. Says he will never stay...

    Lost my beloved 2001 to Hurrican Ian

    I’m not downing that video, but those winds weren’t even near 75 mph in that video…. We had 135 at our house in Iona and the pond behind our homes had cresting (1-2 ft) whitecap waves on it along with the surge, and 7 out of 10 pool cages were on the ground. Just a real mess all the way around…

    2021+ GMC Yukon Pricing vs. 2019 Pre-pandemic deals w/ snapshots

    I paid 82K MSRP for mine in 2020 right before this 5-15K over sticker train pulled into the station. Same vehicle stickers for 95k+ currently. Just the factory price increases alone are enough to make you sick + you may get a vehicle that is missing features. Probably wouldn't pay 95 for the...
