Most notable difference between 07 and 15 Tahoe....

My 2015 seems to have a much QUIETER ride inside, BUT also a much ROUGHER ride, on anything less than perfectly paved streets. Does the 15's have that much of a dramatic drop off suspension wise than 8 years prior ???

What wheel/tire setup on both vehicles? Suspension options for both vehicles?

 

[todd305]

both LT's 20".

Hmmm, well I guess those are about as Apples to Apples as you get. It's possible that your 07's suspension has gotten softer over time as things wore. I also think the new vehicles are dampened for better handling.

Check Tire Pressure. Mine were all different and overfilled. Equaled them all out and lowered them to where they should be and the ride got ALOT better.

i recently drove a '15 tahoe and i though the ride was a lot smoother and more controlled.

Any new car is tighter. The body and frame gets looser with age.

Drive a 2014 nnbs with 5,000 miles and a 2007 with 150,000

There will be a difference

Your running on aluminum suspension components now in the 2015, about 10% stiffer than comparable steel components according to the GM engineers. I am very impressed with the ride characteristics and handling of the Denali on 22's.

God, the ride difference between my wife's 10' Tahoe compared to her 15' Denali is night and day. It has to be the magnetic ride option because it's like driving on a cloud.
Incredibly smooth.

Very Very Very smooth and silent on highway and normal roadways. Imperfections in the road and especially speed bumps, the ride does not compare to the 07. Hitting a speed bump a even a low rate of speed is like running into a curb practically. Feels like the truck is going to crack. Seriously.
