Thule Motion 3 XXL on 2022 Tahoe
This thing is pretty spacious, I was able to fit 2 medium luggage sets and 1 small carry one with plenty of space for a couple of back packs and other small items. I will say the opening is not as big as I would have wished for but it’s flexible enough to get the bags to fit. Packing and... -
Looking for some expert advice
I’ve used CAI on all of my previous trucks and have one in my Audi and it makes the engine sound throatier but this one roars at OT and growls when you give the car a little gas. It’s not a constant growl either, more of a bark, then it’s suddenly quiet? Like I said if like the OT growl, but the...- Big_THoe

Looking for some expert advice
Thanks for the replies guys. I think restricting the flow is the way to go, that’s why I thought of a smaller filter. I might try one of K&N own Dryflow filters, the one I am thinking is a couple of inches shorter than the one I currently have.- Big_THoe

Looking for some expert advice
Just installed a new K&N high flow cold air intake and the engine growls at random speeds, not just open throttle. Pulling from a light and easy on the pedal it growls, shifting from 2nd to 3rd it growls, open throttle this thing sounds like a T-Rex. While I love the sound at OT, the other...- Big_THoe

Thinking of adding Grill Guard. Thoughts?
HD hood gets my vote!! Not a fan of grill guards on these trucks. -
Thule Motion 3 XXL on 2022 Tahoe
Was able to fit the Thule 3 XXL on the Tahoe with no issues. Properly seated with full access to the tail gate and no issues cruising at highway speeds. I really like the look of this box and needed something big as we’re a family of five!! Hope this post helps someone else looking for a big... -
Shutting off engine and letting car shift to park
I figured I wasn’t doing anything crazy. I did notice the e-Brake comes off with the press of the accelerator so there are some functions on this car that just happen automatically.- Big_THoe

Black Exhaust Tips for RST Performance Edition?
Did you ever find a set you like for your RST? The Exhaust tips are the last thing I need to black out. Not going to paint them myself, just looking for tips to weld on to the current system. Also thinking of changing to the BORLA Pro XS Universal Muffler while I am at the Exhaust shop!! -
Shutting off engine and letting car shift to park
Is anyone else shutting down the engine while still in D and letting the car automatically go to P on the gearshift? I know this all sounds lazy but I can’t think this is causing any damage to the transmission. Plus, I hate the button gearbox set/up, glad to see GM move back to the stalk...- Big_THoe

Bridgestone tires. good or bad? My experience.
Coming from a set of Michelin Defender's on my wife’s 2015 Yukon to her new Tahoe with the Defenders, I wish I would have made the dealership change the tires when I traded/bought the Tahoe. The 10,000-plus mile old Defenders were so much better than the new Alenza’s the truck came with! They... -
Vinyl wrap roof rails
Thanks for the replies guys. I did see that people have wrapped the roof rails and that the wrap holds over time. I am mostly worried about the grip on the cross bars as I would hate to lose one going down the hwy because of lack of grip strength. The cross bars on these new trucks is pressure... -
Vinyl wrap roof rails
Has anyone vinyl wrap the roof rails on their Tahoe? Planning on blacking out the chrome rails (last thing I need to black out) but worried about the stability of the cross rails clamping down on the vinyl?? Any input is much appreciated.
