What are the differences between the 2007 and 2011 tahoes...more specifically the Z71 models?

I know 4spd vs 6spd trans. What else?

Thanks,
Shawn

If i'm not mistaken there aren't any interior changes, maybe an option or two. I also recall something about them removing the heated headlight washers since they caused problems. Exterior they slightly changed, I know they made the door trim a little thicker (or thinner.. can't remember which), but again... hardly noticeable, and if it bothers you and you want the most updated look, for the difference in sale price you could easily just buy the new body pieces

From what I could gather (wikipedia):
2009+ there is a 6.2L option for the LTZ
6 speed transmission rather than 4 speed
"2010 models underwent a mild mid-cycle refresh including a slightly raised bumper, revised door trim, improved side structure, and side torso air bags."

The LTZ had the 6.2L for 2009 and that's it. They went back to 5.3L for 2010+.
