What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

[Bombsquad85]

I have to see it to believe it. My accord hybrid was advertised as 50 city 45 highway and I get 39 city 42 hwy.

Congrats on the new ride.

Still getting used to it but my first day driving I averaged 46 mpg with some traffic sprinkled in. I'm impressed so far. Its definitely a big change from the yukon but I think it'll serve me better in the long run.

Lol. They’re pretty fun little buggers. At least the cooper S.. my buddy won one from his bank, and I really enjoyed driving it around a bit. I was surprised at how quickly that little sucker got us into the triple digits..!

ETA: it IS a tiiiiiight squeeze in that little Bastard. I’d never be able to daily that.

My wife used to have a boss that had one and she drove it around for errands. She said it was fun but too small for me haha

Can you provide more details around where you found this leak? I have a leak too and thought it was the sunroof, but now I'm thinking it's somewhere around the lift gate and your input would really help. Thanks!

After Tint work... 18% feels great inside... Roof rack makes a ton off difference also...

Oh yea... Billet Antenna, is my normal touch on anything with an antenna.

So remove the wiper arms, there are 6 clips holding the plastic on to the cowl of the truck. Most of this will be done with hood up, Two torx screws, 1 on each side under the trip pieces. Just slide the passenger side of the plastic cowl cover forward, there is a hatch right there on passenger side, its a known leak place on these body styles, I think this is my 5th on of the NBS and I have had to seal every one of them.


Here is a video on some of the normal places for them to leak. The metal painted door on passenger side is what I am referring to.

I need to check that on my 02. Every once in awhile after a really heavy rain I get wet carpet on the passenger side.
