Tested out my new to me 2015 LT.. advise on additional modifications

[nglauer]

I finally got my 2015 Tahoe LT back (after it puked the transmission out within the first 24hrs of ownership) and could test it out on some of my construction roads today. I work on power line transmission right of ways and frequently drive on all types of temporary and permanent access roads.

So far I've done this...
New Reman 6L80e (not initially by choice.. Thank goodness for the extended warranty)
Swapped original polished 20" wheels for gloss black 18" wheels with Goodyear Duratracs
Z71 floor mats
Shaved door emblems (shaving LT and rear emblems this weekend)

I plan on adding the following items:

PPV front air dam
Tow Hooks or bull bar
Strobe lights front/rear (white)
Foglights
EGR fender flares
Z71 3 piece skid plate kit
Resonator delete
Black bowties

Any other suggestions?

Is anyone on here running a winch? Less for me, and more for helping in emergencies. Anyone make a decent setup? I only found one.

Can my Tahoe be programmed to add hill descent control? Could I access the off road screen of with a software reflash?

Thanks!

there is no button on the dash for hill descent?

Not on mine, it's an LT. I don't have the 2 speed transfer case either.

I thought it was added since 2013, what happens when you put it in tow mode does it say anything when you scroll through the dic?

you are thinking of powertrain grade braking - it is different from hill descent control.

PM me and I'll ship you some OEM black bowties (front and back never used)
I bought a set, then an RST grill... so now I have extra. they're yours if you want 'em

I see, my Silverado has it but I have never used it figured it was a standard option now.
such a corny video, lol

I wouldn't buy a PPV air dam. I'd just trim the one you have. A lot less $$

I think that is the route I'll be taking.
