    I'm back! Fully Custom & Blacked Out 2017 Yukon SLT

    Always wondered about those rims but looking at them on your truck has me sold. Good job!

    Add Headrest Screens to 2016 Yukon Denali

    It would seem, at least generically speaking, that you could accomplish something like you're wanting to do if the overhead OEM video player has a video-out option available on the unit. If it does I would think you could input that signal into another source. i.e. headrest monitors. The real...

    XM Radio Station Artwork Showing On Your Screen??

    I put the same question to my dealer after I bought my Tahoe LTZ back in 2016 when I noticed my BMW was displaying SAT radio artwork and the Tahoe did not. I could never get a straight answer. I had all but forgotten about this since I listen to far more content via USB than I do radio. If...

    Touchscreen Protector

    This was actually the 2nd mod I did to my Tahoe after tinting the windows. I found a tempered glass screen protector on Amazon. It cost me $15 and has held up well going on 20 months of steady use. Anti glare and it doesn't hinder the use of the touchscreen controls at all. I used the same...

    Need opinions on black out!

    If I recall correctly it was 3 to 5 days once they got my truck in the shop. The shop was 2 weeks out on work.

    Need opinions on black out!

    Took my black Tahoe LTZ into one of the better known custom shops in my area (DC/Baltimore) and was quoted a price of $1700 for a full chrome delete. Perhaps that's the going rate but I've since decided to keep the chrome. I'd rather put that cash towards a set of custom forged wheels in a...

    New Wheels

    Any chance you could post a full side view pic of the tahoe? Nice Dodge by the way.... I've always liked their trucks.

    Drivetrain clunking

    Had similar symptoms. Took the truck in for service last week as I just passed 15k miles. Picked it up the same evening and I haven't heard a peep out of the drivetrain or transmission since. I just assumed that the dealer installed an update while performing the regular service.

    GM offering a supercharger in the 2018 accessory catalog?

    The lack of color matched rear calipers with the Brembo brake package and my OCD are the only things holding me back from pulling the trigger on the brake upgrade. Happy to hear Chevy is offering color matched rears even if they aren't Brembo calipers. A supercharger making it into the parts...

    NORCAL SS Custom 2/3.5-4.5 for all 2wd 2015+ GM SUV

    Are those 24" or 26" rims? That looks like a Falken tire so I think I answered my own question.

    Future 2020/21 Tahoe/Yukon/Suburban

    I certainly hope the next generation redesign includes a total revamping of the 3rd row seat in the SWB version. Coming from a Lincoln Navigator I can honestly say that I am REALLY tempted to jump ship back to Ford just for that reason alone. The fact the the 3rd row is completely unusable is...

    12.21@114 on 26zzz

    Saw the video on Instagram earlier this morning and I couldn't quite tell. Did you actually beat the 'vette? Either way, you've pretty much built the blueprint for turning these trucks into performance SUV's and you took the most of the guess work out of doing it right in the process. Well done!

    Caliper covers

    I've got no comment on the caliper covers but..... Washington Redskins = 13-3 & NFC champs!! Ya'll heard it here 1st. We also sweep Dallas this year by the way!!

    2016 Yukon Denali aftermarket DVD player

    I recommend the Headrest option as well. In fact, thats how my 2016 Tahoe LTZ came equipped. A couple of things to note though.... And I'm not sure how the overhead player works since with my last truck I ripped out all of the factory equipment and installed a Kenwood Nav/DVD with headrest...

    New Tahoe RST

    Question: Are the Brembo brakes front and rear calipers or is it just the front? Honestly my OCD would kick in and it would kill me to see those red calipers on only 1/2 the truck. The 6.2 plus the 10 speed are definitely appealing especially if I can get the truck optioned out the same way...

    Need a intake to pair with Corsa exhaust

    Just curious... How long have you had/how many miles driven with the CAI installed?

    Considering a tune for the Tahoe, but...

    Not an answer to your direct question but when I took my Tahoe in for its 1st service I asked my service manager straight up about performance related mods. His answer to me was (and this is a direct quote) "You can put any CAI and Catback system that you want as long as the parts are emissions...

    87 or 89 Octane

    Read through the BB Tune '17 5.3 thread. Based on the information provided in that thread from someone who is a reliable source, the 5.3 should be running at least 89 octane primarily due to the fact that the 5.3 engine compression is 11.0:1. For the record, I've been running a better brand of...

    BB tune '17 5.3

    So in my bone stock (no tune, no mods) Tahoe LTZ you are saying the engine will perform better with 89 octane gas or better? Just want to make sure I understand the proper context of the comment above. Thanks!

    Weathertech vs Husky Weatherbeater

    Maybe its a "bench seat" vs. "captain chairs" kinda thing with the 2nd row X-Acts.

    Weathertech vs Husky Weatherbeater

    Looks good NJ16Yukon. I shy'd away from the Weatherbeater brand because a read on a few threads here that the WeatherTech is prone to curling at the edges. I guess its sort of a "pick your poison" scenario. Either an ill-fitting mat or a mat with curled edges....

    Husky Liners X-ACT CONTOUR

    NJ16Yukon can I sucker you into taking a picture of the 3rd row X-Act mat once you have it installed and posting it? I'd like to get a general sense of the coverage area that the mat provides before I spend any more money.... Thanks!

    Recirculated air button

    I thought I was the only one.... So far my only complaint with my truck.

    Husky Liners X-ACT CONTOUR

    Checked the boxes that the mats shipped in from Husky. The packaging says X-Act Contour. I suppose I should have just called Husky instead of posting here but at this point I'm good with it. The ill fitting Husky mat is still way better than the GM all weather mat that got replaced.
