I don’t tow often. The last thing I towed weighed I at about 800 lbs including the trailer. The know that the package has more than the transfer case and those features are important to me too.
I’m 6 feet 5 inches and weigh in at 240 lbs. The loss of those 2 inches of headroom are a big deal to me. I sat I. A premiere Tahoe today and the left side of the frame of the roof is the annoying part, not the glass roof or shade itself. Without the roof I have at least 5 inches of space.
The only thing I can say is that my stepmoms equinox is the same but I’m reasonable comfortable in that.
I’m going to try and reconfigure the HC with the tech package.
As someone who feels your pain- I'm 6'8"- I have the sunroof in both of my SUVs and have no issues with space. The seats can be lowered.

I’m 6’5”. 240 lbs. my head room without the roof is about 5”. With roof about 3”. Again. It’s not the glass or even the shade so much as it’s the left side of the roof. The part with the grab handle that’s just annoying. I don’t touch it but it seems cramped because half the room is gone.
I’m explaining it wrong. I think.

I just got a text from my friend at Chevy. I might be in luck.

Spec sheet seems to say. Sun roof now only available with sun and tow package.

ETA. No luck. No changes.

I've had eight to 10 vehicles in the last 15 years and most all of them had sunroofs.... None of them gave me any problems. Sunroof technology has come a long way since the leaky old flip tops of years ago. If that was the only thing that held me back from buying the vehicle, forget about it and get what you want. Pull the shade over it and forget it's up there.
While I don't disagree that the construction has come a long way, it may be worth nothing that, unless you got used vehicles, going through that many vehicles in that many years reduces the likelihood that you were the current vehicle owner if issues ever popped up.

With that said, I have a roof on my '23 Suburban and it's been issue free for two years. First year was kept outside in the AZ sun though it's now kept in a UT garage so hopefully that preserves the seals better against the harsh sun/winter cold.

My main complaint with a sunroof is losing the roof handle above the doors which I frequently held onto when in a burb without a roof; it still has the grab handle on the front side of the door to help with getting into the vehicle though that's too far away to use as a grab point when sitting in the seat unless you have longer arms than I do.

Those handles are still there roof or not. I actually wish they were on the A Pillar really, more helpful there in my opinion.....
