Welcome from Orlando. The new vehicles are very different. They look the same but at least for me, there is a learning curve with the electronics.

Well ours already had a problem with the backup and 360 degree cameras not working

Took it to the dealer. Dealer replaced Module 87816606 - Video processing module which looks to be a >$600 OE part and of course my guess is this part needs to be reprogrammed by dealer to accept the VIN of the vehicle. (Just a wild guess someone with more knowledge can confirm).

That has corrected the issue.

Scared about the future we are heading to with all the computer modules in these newer trucks

Yes I intend to. I have worked on numerous makes and models of vehicles over the years. I am hopeful to contribute in a constructive way...

My dad had the same color '69 but a GMC. That was the first stick shifter I learned to drive. Only in granny gear no gas with Dad walking along the outside. I was 13 or 14.

Those memories are great!!!! My favorite part about classic vehicles.

Thanks, and it was in the woods along the river on an old off road trail. Never forget it.

Added a 2002 Yukon 2WD with the 5.3 Vortec to the family. This low mileage one showed up … has 89k original miles … this will be one of my daily drivers. After driving 70s and 80s carbed trucks for a while this 2002 feels like a technological marvel.

WOW. That's definitely a SCORE!

I bought my 99 Silverado in 2007 with that kind of mileage!

GMT800 FTW

Hey there neighbor!!

I'm in the North Dallas area (Richardson), how about you?

I am very much enjoying the size of this Yukon. About 198" length, fits in my short driveway just fine and leaves me room to back out my other garaged truck. Many other full size cars couldn't fit in that area.

Awesome! I'm in SW Dallas near Mountain View College.

I was in Richardson today looking at a building. 75 & Campbell area.

One of my former co-worker/friends had Tahoe, I think 2003. It was over 400k. He'd passed it on to his daughter-in-law, and she divorced his son, so he lost track of it. But I wouldn't be surprised if it's still on the road.
