    Lugnuts, TPMS, and other questions

    Subscribed for pics.... I don't have anything else to add except I used both the Nitto 420S and the Yokohama Parada Spec-X. The Parada Spec-X may have been the best tire I've ever owned. Great for me in all conditions (Maryland weather). My only issue was it is a directional tire so...

    2016+ GM INDEPENDENT Intake Testing- Black Bear Performance

    This is awesome work!! I think even us 5.3 guys can gain some knowledge from these test results. I just wish the GM version of the performance CAI would have made the list. I need to go look into buying some AFE stock because their product is gonna be flying off the shelves now.... Thanks...

    Husky Liners X-ACT CONTOUR

    So I finally got around to installing my Husky Liners. The front liners fit like a glove. The 2nd row liner??? Not so much.... Is there some kinda secret sauce that I need to apply to get these things to lay flat. There are gaps all along the length of the mat. These were supposed to be...

    Long time lurker

    I didn't realize that Vossen makes a 6 Lug wheel. Did you order custom wheels or does Vossen have news rims for 2017?

    2015 Yukon Denali - Redline Concept SEMA Build

    Sorry about that. I'm an idiot. You identified the truck as a Denali in the thread title and I totally missed it.

    2015 Yukon Denali - Redline Concept SEMA Build

    Piggybacking on Fifty's ask, is this the 6.2L or 5.3L engine? Also... Any spec's on the wheels and tires? BTW... The truck is badass!!

    Husky Liners X-ACT CONTOUR

    Question for those using the X-ACT Contour model of Husky Liners (or any model) with the 2nd row bucket seat option... Does the 3rd row liner also cover the area between the 2nd row bucket seats? I just ordered the 1st and 2nd row X-ACT liners but passed on the 3rd row since that row is...

    Who's supercharged?

    That's good to know. I pretty much assumed that the Hennessey numbers weren't talking about HP at the wheel. Still I would have bet money that the 5.3L was only good for 450 to 475 max with only bolt on mods. I just crossed 5k miles on my 2016 Tahoe. My plan was to wait until 10k miles and...

    Who's supercharged?

    So.... I checked out hennesseyperformance.com. They're claiming 500hp + out of the 5.3L DI motor (2015 Tahoe). And it doesn't look like there are any internal engine mods being done. Is that even possible with the 5.3 motor???

    Finally pulled the trigger

    So was the dealer basically recommending that you should NOT do the CAI and Borla at the same time?

    HMI module

    So you do NOT have to double tap the rear defrost button to activate?

    3rd row removal for custom subwoofer enclosure

    I apologize if this question has been asked/answered already but is there something covering the subs and amp (plexiglass maybe) or has that install effectively rendered the back of your truck useless for carrying cargo? Not knocking the functionality of the build, I'm just curious.... Looks...

    Another dead battery thread...

    Not to hi-jack this this thread but I've got a question that is probably at least semi related to the above topic. When you guys exit your trucks do you turn off the radio, heat, A/C, etc? On those trucks equipped with the "auto sensing" headlights, do you leave those in auto mode? The reason...

    Avis

    I was in Indianapolis on Monday and Tuesday of this week to evaluate the Interactive Intelligence contact center telecom solution. There were several co-workers with me so Enterprise upgraded me from a smallish SUV and put us in a 2016 Suburban LT. As soon as we hit the highway a co-worker...

    Added rear entertainment to my 2016 tahoe

    In that case that setup is pretty badass. My 2016 LTZ came with a dual Headrest rear entertainment system as a dealer installed option. I haven't spent much time trying to figure the system out since my daughter would rather connect to the trucks wi-fi and stream movies and tv shows on her...

    Added rear entertainment to my 2016 tahoe

    Am I correct in assuming that the rear entertainment audio does NOT have the option of playing through the trucks stereo/speaker system?

    Looking for balancing tricks/advice with 24" and 26" wheels

    Question for those running 24” wheels or bigger. What’s the general consensus on running larger wheels and expected drive quality? The back story here is before my current truck I owned a Lincoln Navigator with 23” rims sourced from the Saleen F150 Pickup and no matter what tire combo and...

    Problems with Sirius/XM section of radio

    Surprisingly my XM radio has been rock solid. It's the regular FM & FM HD radio stations that fade in and out for me. What's really annoying though is that when I play music saved on a USB stick or iPod there is pause in between tracks/songs instead of gapless playback. I wish GM would...

    Tinted Windshield 16 Yukon XL

    I was not given the option to pay the fine and to be honest I wasn't forward thinking enough to think to say "just give me a ticket". I was too busy arguing with the cop over the fact that he said my license plate frame was illegal because the word MARYLAND was covered by the frame at the top...

    Tinted Windshield 16 Yukon XL

    I've got a '16 Tahoe LTZ with the HUD option. I had 45% tint on my front windshield (got it done the day after I purchased the truck in June) and the tint had absolutely no effect whatsoever on the HUD. I also had limo tint all the way around so it was DARK. The local county police here in...

    Borla exhaust

    Just for my own clarification are we talking about the 6.2L Borla exhaust being 3" vs. 3.5" for the stock exhaust or is that for the 5.3L engine? Checking the specs over on the Borla website shows the 5.3L Tahoe exhaust 2.75" into the muffler and 2.25" dual pipes to the tips. Those same...

    Tinted Windshield 16 Yukon XL

    Looks great.... I had 45% on my windshield and Limo tint on the rest of the windows (2016 Tahoe LTZ) and LOVED it. At least I did until the County Police here in Maryland pulled me over and made me peel the windshield and the front driver/passenger side windows.
