    2012 Chevy Tahoe Hybrid problems . . . no, it can't be, can it?

    Not that I would ever buy one, because just on the face of it, a hybrid anything is going to be two sources of trouble and two sources of repair bills. Today while getting a work vehicle towed, I asked the tow truck driver what he thought about hybrids. Without even mentioning a brand, he...

    Can a Tahoe be ordered without third-row seats?

    Just curious if a Tahoe can be ordered without third-row seats? About the only use for third-row seats is for those who have been cursed with children, but for others, third-row seats are a waste of space. I think the third-row seats were the first thing I removed from my Tahoe when I drove it...

    Steering Wheel Gold Bowtie -- That Color Has Got To Go!

    By the end of this week, this will be the last gold anything on my Tahoe that I am aware of. That ugly color will be gone. I'm going to order something to cover it up, and I'll report back when this little project is over. Here's the link to what appears to be a solution to fixing GM's ugly...

    Console Safe by Lock'er Down

    I purchased a Console Safe by Lock'er Down from Mobile Security Plus ( http://www.mobilesecurityplusstore.com/ ) for my 2010 Tahoe. The model number is LD2011A. The Console Safe does not block the USB port or 12-volt power port in the factory console, which is what kept me from buying a...

    Why is there no underhood light in a Tahoe?

    Yeah, I know. I can answer my own question. :evillol: The answer is because GM is cheap and always looking for ways to delete useful stuff and raise prices as an added bonus. :rolleyes: My 1995 Chevy pickup has an underhood light that comes on when I raise the hood, and a separate...

    Why are we turning the ignition on and off WITH the key?

    Why are we turning the ignition on and off WITH the key instead of that little gizzmo that used to be on vehicles that stuck out slightly from where the key was inserted, like on my 1995 Chevrolet pickup, and is where you applied your thumb and a finger to turn the ignition on and off rather...

    Things I have NEVER used in my Tahoe

    1. Remote vehicle start. 2. OnStar. 3. Third row seats, which are somewhere in the Lubbock County dump. 4. Heated seats feature. 5. Cooled seats feature. 6. Roof rack. 7. E85 fuel. 8. Memory Seat, Mirrors, and Pedals feature. I'm thinking there are others, but...

    Anyone install a dash cam in their vehicle?

    I'm thinking that next year I might install a dash cam in my Tahoe. There are so many yahoos on the road that it might be a stress reliever for me to start posting videos on YouTube of some of the morons in Lubbock that should not have a license to drive . . . or even be allowed outside their...

    Stock Tahoe roof rails vs. Escalade roof rails

    I know that swapping out the stock Tahoe roof rails with the Escalade roof rails is a very popular modification, but I'm having second thoughts on doing this one. Thanks to GM and its inability to produce parts efficiently, I have the left-side Escalade roof rail at my house, but not the...

    "National backorder" . . . huh?

    How is it with GM that parts for currently produced vehicles can be on "national backorder" for months at a time? Especially when the part is produced right here in the United States? Hey, GM, when someone needs a part for a vehicle that is currently in production, how come you goofs can't...

    If it were an option on all trim levels, would you pick cloth or leather seats?

    If it were an option on all trim levels, would you pick cloth or leather seats? I'd pick cloth due to the ease of cleaning and care.

    EPA Fuel Economy Estimates

    I'm looking at the window sticker that was never placed on the window of the Chevy 2010 Tahoe I ordered last year, and the EPA estimates that I'll get between 12 to 18 MPG in city driving, for an average of 15 MPG. And when I'm on the highway, the EPA estimates I'll get between 17 to 25 MPG...

    If you could factory order a navigation system . . . would you choose Garmin, GM Navigation System, or TomTom?

    OnStar -- Keep it or dump it?

    My one-year OnStar subscription included with the purchase of my 2010 Tahoe in May 2010 will end in about three weeks, and I have no intention of renewing it. I've never pressed a button to use any of the features included. I just can't see spending $200 or so each year to subscribe to...

    Uncomfortable headrests

    I like to sit up quite a bit when driving, unlike a lot of people who like to drive as if they're laying in a recliner. The headrests in my 2010 Tahoe lean forward, and that keeps my head pushed forward, which is totally unnatural. Who the hell designed this crap? Nevermind with my question...

    iPod touch (4th Generation) and my 2010 Tahoe

    Finally purchased an iPod touch (4th Generation) with the sole intention of using it in my 2010 Tahoe as my primary music source. Well, what a total waste of money it has been so far! :emotions122: The music simply quits playing during a song, and nothing except removing the iPod cord from...

    Any way to remove the XM tab from display?

    I've got a 2010 Chevrolet Tahoe, and the three-month XM trial subscription finally expired today. I was hoping the XM tab would just go Poof! and not appear beside the AM and FM radio tabs, but no, that would make too much sense. :emotions122: Any way to make the XM tab disappear -- besides...
