    Question about interior packages

    It's a website that searches wrecking yard inventory. You can also use it to search for a more common part to find what locak yard has the right vehicle and then call them or drop by to see what they have. Some yards will also be helpful and if you've spent the time to drop in they can do a...

    Question about interior packages

    The heated/cooled seats is standard on premier and other higher models. I've never noticed that cooled wasn't available with bench. You could always hit up car-part.com and swap the bench in after. The rare part seems to be bench in those higher levels.

    Looking to move on from an Excursion

    Well I'm not one to speak about the safety side since I drive an 90s one in the winter LOL You're not going to get that collosal pile of air bags in a GTM800 and you'd be pressed to get the life you want out of something newer without major repairs along the way. Since you're still driving an...

    How do you Jack/Support your truck?

    The rear axle including the center is usually shown as one of the approved jacking points. It's pretty rare when it's noted to not jack there. It's usually some Fords that specifically say not to.

    Key Fobs?

    Call local locksmiths until you find one willing to do it. It's not an insurance issue it's more liability. If they cut a key and it doesn't work if it's one they provide they'll cut another. If it's one the customer provides and it doesn't work the customer is pissed off, they might not have...

    Auto dimming

    A Denali shold have it, most of the higher trim models either Tahoe or Yukon it's a standard feature. Check the owners manual for how it works. It should be on by default and only disable when you manually control the high beams or turn on the fog lights.

    21+ Yukon floor jack pad: what’s compatible for rear jack point/“socket:”

    Jack on the frame near the wheels but far enough away it's not in the way of removing them. Jack stand under the axle, or again on the frame, under a control arm etc.. to support it. Use some common sense, if something looks like it won't support the weight don't jack or place a stand there.

    Looking to move on from an Excursion

    If the Excursion is still in good shape and you like it you'd be further ahead to keep it on the road. It doesn't matter if you choose GM or Ford, they both have their issues for the newer models. If you're moving to GM stick to the GMT800. Id still be in one if you could get clean ones anywhere...

    No issue leaving them out other then the hinges might seize up faster then they normally would from lack of use.

    2nd Yukon 2016, previous was a 2005. loved my first, really liking my second. warnings?

    Our 2017 Tahoe has been great. Check the forum for the various 2015-20 threads and you'll get an idea of what to watch for or issues. At this point a lot might have already been dealt with.

    Power Running Boards Install

    It's neat they cam be added. The power running boards definitely have a cool factor. But in some climates like ours with winter they also cause issues with the hinges seizing up and the various bolts that hold the boards on and together rusting up. But they still have that cool factor and look...

    Keep or Sell

    Sometimes fleet mechanics aren't the best. For batteries and tires that's not too unheard of. They can go through batteries fast depending on how they're using the equipment and they ususlly want as little down time as possible so if that means replacing something that's easy rather then fixing...
