2106 vs 2017 Tahoe

[jimim]

Have you had them both road forced? And if so, did you happen to know find out what numbers they rolled?

I haven't. What is that?

I have also been toying with upgrading from our 15 Yukon to a 17 Yukon. I don't like that they got rid of the red interior lights....
I need to drive one with the 6.2 to see if the extra cost is worth it. Some say the 5.3 with the 3.42 are about on par with the 6.2?

Anyone who says that is just trying to convince themselves they made the right decision in not getting the 6.2.

It's just what I have read. I'll let you know what I think. I'm assuming you have driven both?

I drove the SLT and Denali before I bought the Denali. The main factor for buying the Denali was the 6.2L. I actually don't like the chrome grill and really wasn't wanting the 'flashiness' of the Denali, but it was the only way to get the 6.2.

I owned a 2013 Tahoe with the 5.3 before this and that thing was a turd.

I own both. Sierra Denali 5.3/3.42 and 6.2 Denali 8 speed and there is no comparison. 5.3 is under powered. Now i've also owned 2010 6.2 Sierra Denali 6 speed which felt stronger. Maybe yukon needs time to break in and is heavier not sure.

Is your Sierra 2015 or newer? The new generation 5.3 will walk circles around the last generation 5.3. I currently own both of those.

Yes it's a 2014 which is the new 5.3 and it's very slow/under powered. Drove other new gens so it's not a truck issue
