...different suspension (MRC) settings would be nice in the Burb and Yukon, like the Escalade.

360 Camera that turns on when speeds slow to 1 or 2 mph
Auto Brake Hold (like Lexus)
Auto setting for heated and cooled seats

On the Escalade it will hold the brake when I’m on any type of incline or decline.
In the cue menu there is an auto setting for the headed and cooled seats
And the 360 camera definitely turns on at low speed. I believe it’s under 5 mph

I would't want a panoramic sunroof. You'd probably lose the roof mounted TV screens. My kids use these every long trip that we take.
Not to mention the extra work on the heater and A/c to keep the truck at the desired temperature with such a large amount of glass for a roof.
350 camera would be a cool feature but you need something to differentiate the Tahoe/Yukon/Suburban/XL from the Cadillac

Auto brake shouldn’t be incline specific.

As for the auto seat setting what does it do?

A few cool features that are on our MKZ that I would like on our Denali. . .

Don't know the tech term, but our headlights move. As you go around a corner, the headlights move to put the light beam in the direction you are turning.

Voice activated climate control. No need to take your hands off the wheel.

Schedule a remote start on a regular basis at specific time i.e. When you head out the door after work, the car is already running. You can set it for certain days of the week.

It's crazy what tech they keep adding to cars.

Do you mean automatic breaking to avoid hitting something when you’re backing up or driving? I have that turned off. When I back up into my drive way there’s such a small incline that if I back up too fast my seat vibrates then locks the brakes. Super annoying!

The auto seats settings you can have the heat or cooling automatically turn on. You can have easy out feature that when you turn the truck off the seat goes back a few inches and the wheels goes up out of your way. When you start the truck the seat goes back into your preset location

The lower bumper lights on the Escalade light the sides of the road when you turn the wheel.
The CUE system has voice commands including climate control, but I don’t use them.
I do like the idea of the vehicle starting at a certain time every day

Yeah yukons have all that stuff. I turned off the seat/in out thing. Too slow and I don’t have a massive gut that can’t clear the steering wheel lol.

I mean like stop at a light and you don’t have to sit with your foot on the brake. It automatically hold the car/truck there. The Yukon’s only do that on inclines/declines.

Lazy... lmfao...;)

Agreed. It would probably have taken them 1 hour of extra programming to extend the current auto brake to include Additional situations.

Even base model sedans offer that feature today.

Would love some lighting on the back door once it's open. Had rear door open last night putting baby stroller away in a dark parking lot and it was hard do see. Pretty easy for them to just add an LED somewhere. :)

Wish it had the key pad on the drivers door like the Fords do. Really miss that feature.
+1.
Also miss tilt-adjustable head rests, which have reportedly been mandated out of existence by Feds as a safety measure.

I have a 17 Denali, how does this work? Where does it install, more info please!! If you have it, or can shed info.

I think you can install it anywhere you'd like (on the door like Fords, or I've seen pictures of people putting them on in the inside of their gas door or under the windshield wiper) since I'm pretty sure they are battery operated and only held on by tape. If memory serves me correctly, I believe the dealer has to program the pad to the car.

I haven't heard any success stories about getting these to work with 16's otherwise I'd already have one.

Why would you want a keypad? You can just open your door by putting your hand on the door handle...What am I missing?

For me I sometimes used to lock my keys, wallet, phone etc in the truck as I didn't want anything on me when doing certain activities. Also I used to leave the the keys in the car with it running and lock it when I ran into a store or drop off a redbox etc.
