Sold My Escalade for a Raptor SVT
Finally found my grail truck, a 2014 Ford Raptor SVT with the 6.2L V8. Mint condition with only 21,800 miles when I bought it. CarMax of all places had it. I also had a really nice 4x4 Chevy Tahoe that was sold off after my wife decided she needed a mustang. We tried to keep the Tahoe and the...- wjoutlaw

Anyone black out their 22" Escalade Rims?
The more I look at the 22" Escalade rims the more I cannot stand them. Too flashy for my tastes. I recently got a plastidip rim kit off Amazon. I was wondering if the chrome will take the plastidip or should I just bite the bullet and spring for black rims... -

Hard Shift 1st Gear to 2nd in 2008 Tahoe
Just curious if anyone has some insight into an extremely hard shift from 1st to 2nd gear. It's like popping the clutch in a manual transmission like you're drag racing. My 2008 Tahoe has 113,000 miles on it. The transmission fluid was changed at 75k miles and it is a dark red color with a brown...- wjoutlaw

Carbon Fiber Wrapped Interior
Finally got around to wrapping that tacky fake wood interior trim with carbon fiber wrap. I got it off Amazon for $25 for a 3'x5' roll. I even wrapped the bowties in front and back. I have plenty left over to fix any that needs replacing. Looks alot better now. -

TPMS Sensors acting wonky
Getting a weird error saying the left rear tire pressure is wildly fluctuating from 1 PSI up to 40PSI. It goes off at random and will go away for a few days but pop back up. I got one error message saying the TPMS System needed maintenance only one time. It flashed up quick then went away and... -

2011 Cadillac Escalade 6.2L Flex Fuel
Just got a 2011 Cadillac Escalade AWD Luxury edition and was wondering what I needed to look out for and improvements I can make. It has the 2nd row captains chairs which I am already not a fan of. It doesn't have the center console between them either. It has 49,000 miles on it and the rear...- wjoutlaw

Remote Start Not Working
My 2008 Tahoe LT 4x4 is supposed to have the remote start. I have gone through the dash menu and verified it is turned on, yet none of the remotes will start the engine. I am not sure what to do next. Any ideas?- wjoutlaw

Stereo Left Channel Dead
Just noticed a few weeks ago that the speakers in the left side aren't working. All except the tiny one in the trim by the windshield. It is not a bose stereo. I read that it could be an amp issue under the center console. I pulled the receiver out of the dash and the speakers out of the doors...- wjoutlaw
