On Friday I should be taking delivery of a 2009 Tahoe LT2 in dark blue. It is replacing my 2004 Toyota 4Runner that I sort of outgrew. I've always liked the GMT900's and this was a good time to buy so here I am. 
This is my first Chevy. Before the 4Runner I had (and still have) a 94 Dodge 1500 4x4. It's lifted 3" with 33's on it. I kept it when I bought the 4R as a project truck but as life gets in the way and it's been more of a dust collector now.
Back to the Tahoe...
I've already got my Weathertech Floor Liners on order along with the chrome exhaust tip from GM Parts Direct.
I removed all my interior and plate LEDs I had installed in the 4R so I'll be reusing what I can in the Tahoe and ordering what I don't have.
With the sale of some remaining parts I have for the 4R I'll probably be upgrading to the chrome LTZ grille.
I'm also debating what iPod control I want for the radio (non-nav). After reading up on all the different brands I'm leaning towards the USASpec one. I would of bought the GM PAL (Personal Audio Link) but you lose XM functionality unless you have a dealer with the Tech2 program the radio and to select the iPod from the radio you need to scroll through the band selector twice (first time its XM second time its iPod). The USASpec is just a channel on XM.
I'll probably be installing (or having installed) the heated seats in the future as well. Not sure if I want to tackle that project yet.
Anyway I found this site on a Google search and I've been lurking here for about a week while I finalized my deal. Now was as good of time as any to start posting!
