Does your Tahoe/ Denali ride like a tank?

[sickk23]

The first thing you need to do is go test drive another one with 22" wheels. Determine if it rides like crap too, in your opinion. Then test drive one with 20", if you like it then it will be worth it to invest the money in yours (if you think the one you test drove on 22"s rode like crap too). If you didn't like how it felt on 20"s, then you should start looking at other manufacturers... That's what I would do if it were me.

Had the wife's escalade in for 5k service. Got a loaner luxury with 150 miles on it also on 22's on the ride home I was amazed how much nicer it rode. So I purposely told her see if you notice anything different about this loaner, 10 minutes into her ride to work she calls and goes, whats better about this one it rides so much nicer. I said well honestly its about 8-10k cheaper, obviously your truck is messed up. Took a service manager out and he felt my truck was riding as designed. Oddly enough the loaner was at 41 psi in the tires, so we aired mine up from 38 to 41.......as I imagined it got worse (the door sticker says 35, but hey it was worth a try) Of course with her popping out a kid in the next week and a half its not high on the priority list but I need to get it back in.

What was the luxury loaner?

He meant Luxury trim on the Escalade.

To each his own. I'm one who likes a softer ride. After test driving a 2016'tahoe which rides even softer than the Denali, I decided I couldn't live with the ride. I even rented one to really put it to the test and just didn't like the ride so I bought a 2013 Denali after searching for several weeks. I bought it yesterday. Some are less sensitive to a stiff ride, wish I wasn't, I could have kept my 2015 suv that I traded out of for the Denali

I had stock 20's and put on 2 different sets of 22's with perilli tires and Terra grapplers didn't notice a difference from 20's. All feel and handle same to me. My denali feels firm and sporty. 2016 esky handles and feels firm with 22's as well. Might be a your truck issue.

I'm infuriated with you (Chad...). So hurt!

I bought a new 16 Tahoe LTZ with 22" wheels a little more than a month ago. I made the mistake of not test driving it and didn't know is that the ride would be so rough. It's been back to the dealership twice, had both the front struts/Mag ride replaced as well as the rear shocks and the tires road force balanced with little improvement. It was so bad we tool a 350 mile trip, my daughter has a fit bit and got 7500 steps just on the ride out! So I escalated it to Chevy customer service and was told no buyback. I'm frustrated and extremely disappointed. Does anyone else have this problem? Did you get it fixed? If so, how?
Thanks

What did you drive prior? I've always had suv,even with 30 inch wheels, guess I'm use to it
