Bought in October 2016..Build date was in August 2016..Has the Luxury Package but no sunroof..When I went looking for a Tahoe I specifically looked at Tahoe's with no sunroof.
So far just oil changes [0W20 Mobil 1 & AC Delco filters] every 5K miles. OLM is around 20% at that point..Oil is still full at 5K miles with a dark amber look..Get around 24.5 miles per gallon if it is all highway and if traffic keeps constantly moving [which is very rare] and cruise control on at around 74 MPH. Only use 87 regular fuel..Mostly Exxon-Mobil fuel..Never checked surface street mileage..In my neck the woods it is almost 24/7 gridlock..Cabin Filter was changed out at 25K miles.
Interior..The seats have good back support for my long trips. Interior is nice and quiet at any speed. Climate control is constantly on and keeps perfect temperature..The layout of the Dash is perfect IMHO.
Ride&Handling..Rides very good IMHO. Handles very well in all kinds of nasty weather.
Just had it serviced yesterday at the dealer as I am going on a long trip this Monday..They changed the oil and rotated the tires..Lately I was having a small vibration at 80 MPH and higher..The dealer did a Road Forced Balance and so far do not notice any more vibration..I had it up to 84 MPH today for a short before the monsoon rain.
I still have the original Continental Tires on it..Will eventually change over to Michelin Defenders..The dealer said the brakes still have over 50% left..I figured with all the traffic I sit in it would be a lot lower.
If you have kids you DEFINITELY need a Suburban..When the third row of seats are up there is very little room for your gear..Especially if you over pack like I do..I always hear Tahoe people say I should have bought a Suburban but have not heard Suburban people say I should have bought a Tahoe..The third row seat is only good for a 5 year old or less..For anyone else it is very uncomfortable.
The AFM is still in play..Does not bother me at all..I have not heard of any issues with the AFM on the 2015 plus 5.3 or 6.2's yet..I have been in a few 2015 Livery Suburban's with over 150K miles and all drivers said the AFM has been a non issue.
My dealer [Shumacher Chevrolet GMC Buick] has never tried to upsell me anything..I thought for sure they were going to try to talk me into injector cleaning or some kind of other Wallet Flushing Service.
