    Fuel door lock?

    Hi, Anybody know if the 2021 has a fuel door lock? I cannot find anything about it. It would sure be nice to have a locking fuel door. Thank you.

    Looks like we're in for higher gas prices in the foreseeable future. Does that make the Duramax an even better choice?

    Just read all of the responses. I always wondered why GM still makes the 5.3 which is 30 year old technology (early 90's). The answer is, because people buy them. I bet after R&D, a 3.0 Duramax total cost for GM (including the decade of R&D) is 4 times (or more) than the 5.3. And, they...

    I bought the Duramax Tahoe because I loved the motor. I didn't really care about gas milage. Now that I own it, I love the gas milage (and massive range on a full tank). Big gas prices have to make more demand for the Diesel. What do you guys think?

    Price Gouging

    I like your take on the market. I agree Duramax is the only way to go with the 2021 Tahoe. I love it. (I bought a base LS model). BTW Gideon/Very Dark Atmosphere with Graywood Metallic looks awesome in person. (that's what I have)

    Price Gouging

    I wondered about this, if there are thousands of built vehicles (especially trucks) sitting around. Do you think they will let them out the door as 2022's once they have the parts they need? Or, will they all hit the lots as 2021's.

    Considering Diesel

    I love my diesel. It's an engineering marvel, and the Tahoe has desperately needed it for years. The concern is the emissions requirements placed on it. So, the real question is the warranty. My service manager told me he is not having very many come in with problems. He said to just drive it...

    16 Yukon SLT....upgrade to a 19 Esky, or a 21 SLT/Denali?

    My vote is for the 2021 SLT. You are getting the advantage of the hundreds of millions of dollars GM invested to develop it. (And 1.4 billion they spent at the factory for it). It's a completely different animal than the prior generation. The diesel and how it drives/ rides are the best...

    18 vs 20 inch winter tires (21 Tahoe)

    Excellent question, I bought a 3.0 LS last week. So amazed with this vehicle, I love it. I usually get blizzaks, I've had them on a Tahoe, an Audi Q5, a Honda Minivan, probably others over the years. When you put them on a vehicle, you feel super confident. (I drive I70 up to Ski Country...

    2021 3.0 Duramax - Regen System warranty?

    Hey guys, I bought one today (LS). The service manager told me the Regen system (whatever it's called), is under warranty for the same 5year 100k miles as the rest of the drivetrain. I couldn't find this in the documentation. Just checking here to make sure the guy was telling me the...

    Should I buy a 2019 Tahoe ?

    Thanks Phil, I noticed that the 2015 + (This Tahoe is 2019) felt way different than my 2011. The one I tested was a rental car, it looks like echopark dealership has all rental car returns in their tahoe inventory. Not sure how I feel about that.

    Should I buy a 2019 Tahoe ?

    Thank you guys ! The 2019 I drove was a rental car, so I'm not really excited about that, especially here in Denver since everybody rents them and hauls ass up to the mountains, ( pretty tough duty). It did drive way better than my 2011. I really like the interior compared to my 2011 model as...

    Hey guys, I really baby my Tahoe, transmission temps around denver are 144. I noticed it was climbing up to 180 on the way down the mountain from Vail last night. Is that excessive ? Thank you

    My 2011 Yukon Denali Totaled Sunday Evening

    Glad to see the Tahoe did her job. I have a 2011. We’re there major safety upgrades in the 2014? I think that’s the refresh year.

    Engine Block Heater ?

    Hey Guys, I have a 2011 Tahoe, 120k miles. It's a workhorse for me and my 3 kids (I'm divorced). I drive it from Denver up to Frisco Colorado every weekend to ski. It sits outside of a house I share with neighbors, then it hauls us back and forth to the ski slopes. I'm really careful...

    Updated dashboard design on 2014+ models

    Hey guys, I have a 2011 Tahoe, I really love it. There is no reason for me to replace it, except I love the Cocoa/Mahogany interior on the new design. Do you guys like it ? Is there any reason to spend a ton of money to get it ? Just wondered if anybody else had thought about it...

    Service Antilock Break System light came on

    It's very intermittent, like about every 3 days. That sounds like it would be hard to troubleshoot !

    Turn signals out on right side of car, need new switch ?

    Thank you, my mechanic fixed it for a week or two. He said he had to "blow out" the switch. He said it would be $240 to replace that switch if blowing it out didn't work. I'm sure I can install the switch if i can just find out what it is called. Appreciate it 1
