    Everyone’s financial situation and priorities are different. At the end of the day, everyone just wants a happy life. One might choose to drive a brand new car and enjoy that experience, while another might prefer a used car and put the extra money toward something else they value. It just...

    Air Suspension v. Longer Wheelbase

    I would say go do some test drives back-to-back. Ride quality is extremely personal.

    First 100+ mile drive on the Tahoe

    I hit consistently every month 20-21+ mpg on daily city driving to schools/work/stores with all idle and everything. Same 5.3 I can drive 14-15+ if needed. All depends on how you drive. You just have to be bit mindful.

    First 100+ mile drive on the Tahoe

    Tahoe 2025+ uses encrypted GM global B ECU. So, plug-in Carbyte doesnt work.

    on HC put on the highest height setting and go under from the front (nose). You can directly access it. 5-10 mins work.

    [SOLVED] Hauling dirty/big things in Tahoe…

    Dont go with roofing or decking grade. Go with cabinetry grade birch or primed prefinished sanded boards. Bit more expensive but holds pretty nicely and looks great too.

    [SOLVED] Hauling dirty/big things in Tahoe…

    Planning to build a simple trunk size lightweight plywood box about 3ft tall (to avoid side plastic panels damages/scratches ) and hinged door to open over the rear bumper when it is open for loading and unloading without scratching the door sill and bumper. Light weight and easily put it in or...

    Firestone Destination LE3 tires?

    Really? My non-magna LT is very smooth on highway and jolting over city roads (whole reason I wanted to switch OE tires). I thought magnaride is designed to mitigate that. Anyone else who has Magnaride can comment on this please?

    Why/how is your Magna ride bad? Isnt it supposed to be good over joints/bumps/potholes?

    Firestone Destination LE3 tires?

    The problem with nice riding tires means anything in the tire world. For someone, excellent cornering, stiff steering feel, feeling every bit of road is the nice tire. For someone else, relaxed, isolated, boaty, cloud like ride is the nice ride. Everyones priorities are different. I like the...

    Firestone Destination LE3 tires?

    My understanding is different. Yes, sport tires have softer rubber for better grip. However, the carcass, belts, internal structure are tighter/firmer to keep the sporty handling and steering. This inherently brings firm ride and more road feeling, which is essential for a sport tire.

    Firestone Destination LE3 tires?

    Interesting!. My understanding was that sport tires are inherently firmer for handling and steering response. I think my Pirellis were in the same category.

    Firestone Destination LE3 tires?

    Installed the LE3 and running at 32psi cold. Initial impression is not bad. -Bit softer over cracks/potholes/reflectors than Pirelli AS +3 I had (32 psi). Not a day and night difference. -Pirelli felt bit softer after 2000 miles than when it was new. Hoping for the same with these. -Road noise...

    Firestone Destination LE3 tires?

    Michelins are good tires. The thing is my priority is different from most others. My priority is softer ride on city potholes and road cracks. Roads are not good here. I dont mind snow, wet, off-road, noise. towing, handling.. etc. Was originally looking at the LTX MS2, Tirerack review on MS2...
