Great stuff! No idea where that was shot, but it looks like almost my backyard with less than 1/4 of the snow.

Watch carefully the rear wheel suspension travel. What an incredible demonstration of the IRS. I realize that the air is set to maximum height - but it just blows away my 1999 PPV that seemed to have almost no articulation by comparison.

Also good shot of one of the LPO wheels. Much more attractive to my eye than the RPO High Country wheel.

JMHO but this video doesn’t really show or prove much. Any reasonable AWD CUV would negotiate that course in basically the same fashion.
Let see it try to extricate itself from a ditch or snowbank and report back....


If you’re a good driver you should avoid ditches and snow banks. That being said there are some videos out there of the 21 Tahoe overcoming steep hills.
I didn’t post the video to prove anything. I posted it for entertainment.

So coming from a '16 Silverado 2500HD High Country the Tahoe ride was a bit different. I find myself driving a bit more careful LOL. I used the Auto setting on snow and slush and handling certainly improved from 2WD. I placed the truck in 4WD to play around and felt even more confident in the handling.

The power running boards however froze in place. (At least the drivers side did) Once it broke free on it's own, I shut the drivers door and it must have had a piece of ice blocking it. It opened and closed numerous times, finally settling about half closed. Once I was able to get the ice out, it returned to normal function.

I had 21 Suburban LT Sign. down at Mt Bachelor, in late February. The drive down was through a heavy snowstorm in the Pac NW, and lots of snow daily in Sunriver, OR. I have to say it handled the best on snow of any vehicle I have driven. The tires (continental, rated M+S) were very good I thought. I ran it in 4WD when there was snow on the pavement.
