    Literally was just coming back to ask this. It seems the Escalades have trans and oil coolers, but I planned to ask for codes today. Thanks!

    So, I’ve got it narrowed down to 4. Two 2014 Yukon Denalis and two 2013 Escalades. All have 80-100k on them (no big deal). Thing is, they’re all 5ish hours drive away from me. Few questions for the experts: 1) the caddy has the magnetic ride suspension, but is this more of a hassle? I drove a...

    Found some of these, but can’t figure out what decided the color match grille and dual exhaust bumper molding. Found a few worthwhile however.

    Yeah, that and old spice. Not new old spice, OLD old spice. Like someone was preserving a corpse.

    I have looked, but the two that I drove probably turned me on them, one smelled like old men and cigarettes, the other just rattled like crazy inside. I should give them another go, but they’re doesn’t seem to be quite as many of those.

    Yeah, there are just so many more of the Denalis out there, it’s makes the 6.2 easier to obtain, even with low miles. Just don’t prefer the look of those headlights, and I’m not real big on chrome, but I’m excited to dig into some build threads here and see what others have done. I love my...

    I’d love to, but they’re like unicorns. Literally found two in the country, both are ~10 hours away, and I’d hate to fly to a truck for it to be junk.

    Yeah, I’ve got it at the house!

    in the process of buying a NNBS. Either a Denali or the Tahoe. I prefer the styling of the Tahoe, but it’s not a deal breaker. Thing is, I’m going to be using it to pull a camping trailer, and the 5.3 CAN pull it with no problem, but the question is, should I get the 6.2 with the Denali for...

    What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    You’re right. It wasn’t even a 2k dollar difference. It was 1500. She’s back in the driveway now. A little time, and a little love, she’ll be what I wanted her to be still!

    Looks like it’s gonna be goodbye to the old girl. Damage is up to 6k, so we’re past the threshold for damage. Payout is gonna be 8.5k, which is fair. I can keep her for 2 of that, and risk fixing it, but damage may end up exceeding the remainder after that, and she still needs tranny...

    Update: Radiator is definitely cracked, somewhere. Didn’t lose enough fluid for the temps to change in the 3+ hours of driving after the hit, but that significantly reduces the probability of getting to keep her. :bawl: So if anyone’s got a line on an 09-10 with a 6.2 in it, let me know.

    Ran some rough numbers. Nada retail value 8k Tenn damage threshold =75% So, 6k Ugh. F*cking deer.

    What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    Last time they redid the bumper, the insurance cost was ~2k. I figure with doors and lights, hood, and grill/crossbar (lost my damn wrapped bow tie on the front too) I’m looking close to 4K through insurance. I have a zero deductible plan though, so I’d rather turn it in and let them cover it...

    What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    Yeah, damn thing shit all over the car as he rolled down the side. Like the damage wasn’t bad enough. I’m also glad the airbag didn’t deploy, but honestly, I hardly felt him. It was a noise, and a bump, but these Tahoe’s weigh so damn much that my momentum ignored the 300lb deer.

    Been a busy month for the Tahoe I guess... This morning just outside of Nashville at about 04:30 a deer ran out in front of the truck in a dead sprint, and I caught his head with the drivers side light assemblies. I’m just gonna hope the insurance doesn’t seem this “totaled”I drove for 4 hours...

    Tire Recommendation Michelin vs Nitto

    Michelin LTX/AT2 is also a very good "all around" tire if price is no object, I'd take Michelins or the BFG KO2, the bfgs are still some of the best all around tires I've ever owned for any vehicle.

    What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    I think this is my issue as well, because I went through 2 new water pumps (remanufactured) before one sealed well enough not to leak it out in a giant misty cloud of dexcool as I drove around. This one didn’t leak a drop until after the wreck, which broke the original reservoir, and it’s...

    Update: Replaced starter. Truck is back to running at top shape. Still have a few leaks, but they’re slow. Rear main oil leak is losing less than a quart between changes. Still don’t know where the coolant is going or why, but it isn’t in the oil.

    It would be the thing that would finally begin an official build thread for me, lol

    Wouldn’t start. Been able to beat on the starter before and get it to go, but no luck today. Was locked down.

    This is the second time it’s been towed, first was after an accident. Both times the driver has said “that’s a damn good looking Tahoe”

    What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    Starter had been acting up. Had plans to replace it tomorrow when I was off, but the truck had other plans. Got the old one out before work, gotta put the new one in once I get home. Discovered I most likely have a rear main seal leak, in addition to losing coolant somewhere, and a leak at...
