    Is it possible that this Tahoe has 4WD/AWD? (pic of dash)

    no Premier AWD or AWD period? Because my 'Burb is AWD

    Buying 2016 vs 2015 Suburban

    Straight piping is legal in 50/50 states you aren’t touching the emissions system. Just removing a muffler and raising the decibel levels exiting the exhaust even better, it cannot affect your warranty

    Buying 2016 vs 2015 Suburban

    if you want some noise that isn't horrible, I really recommend cutting the muffler off and just putting a 24" piece of pipe in there. Personally I don't do intakes anymore. They're pretty much good for nothing without tuning. And all they cause is extra noise. That $350 (or more) can be...

    Buying 2016 vs 2015 Suburban

    Get the Edge tuner instead of the Range. I've read too many issues about the Range to ever consider using it. The Edge is about $300 all in. Completely different vehicle on level 3 (87 octane still) and you can turn that idiotic AFM off as well.

    2017 Yukon vs 2017 Tahoe

    are both 4x4 or 4x2 or a mix? I had a 2015 Tahoe 4x2. I now have a 2017 Suburban 4x4 they should be 100% identical. But they weren't even close. The Suburban was so much peppier and fun to drive. The only thing I can attribute that to is the 4x4. I know in Fords that they remap the...

    Buying 2016 vs 2015 Suburban

    I have an x-rental Suburban. It looked perfect. The only reason I know it was a rental was because of the Carfax. 3rd rental vehicle I've purchased. Will probably do again. I've put over 60k miles on this year group. over 40k on a 2015 Tahoe. Over 20k on this 2017 Suburban. Fantastic...

    What did you do to your 2015-2020 K2XX Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    I personally would not use the Range device. For $190 you are getting only 1 function I bought an Edge Evolution off the Facebook marketplace for $200. Paid $40 for Edge to unlock the PCM for my 2017 'Burb. Been driving almost 10,000 miles now on Level 3 tuning. So much better. Like whole...

    LED Daytime running lights?

    Did you bake them to loosen the glue for separation? I've done this before on Fords. But the complex curves had me worried about breakage. I want to separate my current heads to matte black the interiors pieces. And probably install a brighter LED strip like you have

    How many of you DO NOT experience buffetting and vibration problem?

    I owned my 2015 Tahoe for 4yrs without noticing it. The day I traded it in for my 2017 Suburban I noticed the noises I too had lived in Hawaii for years though. And I didn’t notice the noise until I removed the roof racks and swapped rims/tires with the ‘Burb

    Leveling Kit and pulling a trailer

    I installed 1000# airbags in the rear of my 'Burb. With a 6k trailer behind me, I only dropped 0.5" with 30 psi in the airbags. They are rated for 50 psi @ 1000# very good investment to prevent squat

    Leave AFM Off or On? Really any difference in MPG?

    I’m seeing the best MPG I’ve ever seen since 2014 when I bought my 2015 Tahoe. 55 mph is netting me 24+ mpg. And my mixed driving is at 18.3 mpg right now. I’ll get the true hand calc numbers when I fill up soon. the digital meter is spot on usually. Unless I idle a ton with AC on Before...

    Anyone else had issues with Ranch Hand rust?

    I like that solution. I was going to try Por-15 and then rustoleum. But POR-15 can be runny. Your method seems cleaner It took a week of effort to get them to respond initially.

    Anyone else had issues with Ranch Hand rust?

    I emailed Ranch Hand back to have them clarify that they do in fact expect me to correct the rust on my brand new product. Maybe I’ll get a response tomorrow. Their phone response is worthless. I did contact Amazon about the issue. They will send me another and pick this up free of charge...

    Anyone else had issues with Ranch Hand rust?

    Ranch Hand return policy is that the buyer pays for shipping back to them. Then they inspect to agree that they caused the defect. Or not. From reading on the web, Ranch Hand also charges for the shipping of a replacement product to the buyer. For me that’s a few hundred $$$. To get their...

    Previous Gen Z71 Roof Rack on 2015+ ???

    Anybody try this out yet? I like the look of 03-06 Z71 racks over the one on my 2017 Suburban. Just wondering if dimension-wise this will work? Just looking to avoid dropping $100 for a used set and it not working.

    Leave AFM Off or On? Really any difference in MPG?

    Well just drove to Savannah today and back. About 300 miles round trip at 73mph 20 mpg with wicked headwinds and rain AFM was on. But it never went into V-4 mode. Guess I’ll just turn AFM back off in the programming. For reference my 2015 Tahoe averaged 23 mpg in 2016 when I drove across...

    Edge Evolution CS2 on Level 3 AFM turned off Tire correction factor for my larger than factory tires My around town MPG appears better and highway a tad worse. I'm about to drive 1600 miles round trip. Will turning AFM back on gain me anything WHILE keeping the tune? Looking for input from...
