    2019 Tahoe for towing. Difference between tow and max trailer package?

    Equalizer 4 has built in sway control. I do not get sway from a tractors passing on the highway. Equalizer is not a frication based setup. I am able to backup or make tight turns without disconnecting anything.

    2019 Tahoe for towing. Difference between tow and max trailer package?

    That's the way Jayco trailers are designed. The way the frame is designed, it give you more overall height compared to all those Camping World brands.

    2019 Tahoe for towing. Difference between tow and max trailer package?

    I have a 2017 Tahoe LT with Max Trailering. I purchased to specifically tow my Travel Trailer (5,850 dry weight). Last I hit the scale, my trailer was around 6,200 loaded and have no problem towing. I use a good weight distribution hitch and keep it at 55-60 on the highway. The Max Trailering...

    2020 Tahoe Max Trailering Package?

    I have a 2017 LT with Max Trailering. I can get you my RPO codes if you still need them. I know I have heavy duty suspension, trans cooler, etc as part of those RPO codes.

    2020 Tahoe Max Trailering Package?

    I tow a 6,800 pound trailer with my 2017 LT Max Trailering Package and my trans stays right around 200 degrees while towing (after heating up). I only have 14,000 miles on my engine, and its been like that since I purchased it new.

    DIY: Make 2015-2017 LS/LT headlights operate like a LTZ headlight (LED as DRL vice low beams)

    I'd be up for a harness as well since it now behaves like a True LTZ/Premier sans the brightness.

    2018 Tahoe/Full second row not avail?

    I was in this same situation. I wanted a Premier Trim but wanted a bench seat instead of captains. Bench seats do exist in the LTZ/Premier trims, but you need to look at every photo to find them. I ended up settling on a new 2017 LT2 with Signature Package which came standard with bench seats...

    DIY: Make 2015-2017 LS/LT headlights operate like a LTZ headlight (LED as DRL vice low beams)

    Been thinking about getting a harness for my 2017. Should I have any warranty concerns? I'm under warranty for another 6 years. Also, I read in a thread somewhere that by using this harness something operates differently (outside of its intended modification)...I thought it was the parking lights?

    Yukon Denali 6.2 towing Travel Trailer

    Not a Yukon, but I tow 6,400 pounds fully loaded, 30ft Travel Trailer with a 2017 Tahoe (5.3 engine) and I have plenty of power. I have a good WDH with sway control, so I get minimal way

    Shark fin leak

    I had this exact issue. Its a known issue by Chevy and they replaced it under warranty with one that has a better gasket.

    Now I think I understand

    Do you have a pic of your WellVisors installed? I had the in channel EGR ones and took them off after 2 days. I can't seem to find any real world usage of the WellVisors and came across one image from the manufacturer. Looking for a "Real" photo.

    Chrome Door handle trim

    Looking to add these to my 2017 LT. Has anyone tried these to give it the look of a LTZ/Premier? How do they hold up and how's the quality? For 2015-2018 Suburban Silverado Yukon Tahoe Sierra Chrome Door Handle Trim LTZ...

    2017 Tahoe Premier with Driver Info Center but no HUD?

    I have a 2017 LT (mfg tail end of 2017 model year) and have the updated dash but do not have HUD (always wish it did though). I always wondered why since this was only reserved for the Premier. Didn't realize there was a shortage.

    Real World Towing

    My 2017 Tahoe LT Towing 26 ft, 6,500 pound travel trailer. The LT's built in self-leveling does a great job at keeping everything level. With Max-Tow package features, the transmission runs nice and cool (about 195F) and the hill engine breaking is a life saver on the brakes.

    Towing in 2wd vs Auto vs 4WD

    I typically tow my 6,700 pound Travel Trailer in 2wd mode along with Tow/Haul mode. Should I be towing in a different drive mode or is 2wd the safest on the transmission? Someone else told me (non Tahoe owner) that they tow in Auto.

    Headlight Bulbs 2015+

    I swapped in LED's for both fog and low beam on my 17 LT (which OEM were terrible). Now, i feel they are better than that HID's in my wife's vehicle. The drivers side low beam was a 5 minute swap. The passenger side was a ***** (30 minute swap). You have to remove the entire air cleaner...

    I loaded with dirt bags inside my yr 18 tahoe rst the suspension went down a lot in rear

    When I hook up my 6,000 pound travel trailer I hear the compressor running to get it level. I had purchased an LT trim (over the Premier) specifically for the Air Leveling because the dealer said the Premier didn't have it since it has the Magnetic Ride Suspension.

    SiriusXM Reception Blocked

    Finally got it into the dealer today and they replaced the shark fin gasket with an updated version that moves the hole in the gasket to the front side of the vehicle. XM Reception is perfect now. Dealer said when they removed the fin, it was full of water and the GPS and XM antenna corroded...

    First Service

    Hello All. I am currently driving a 2017 Tahoe LT. I purchased new in June of 2018. As of today, I have about 5,100 miles. My oil life is at about 28%. Maintenance manual says to service at 7,500 miles. However, I probably won't hit that until I have it about a year. I have my first 2 oil...

    SiriusXM Reception Blocked

    Thanks. I find it hard to believe that the gasket could be shot already. Its only 5 months old and 4,000 miles. I don't have any reception issues with FM radio, GPS, OnStar, etc. I guess I'll just have to wait it out until I get it in for its first oil change.

    SiriusXM Reception Blocked

    Help! Ever since the first snowfall on my 2017 Tahoe, my XM hasn't worked right. It cuts in and out with the above message and just recently stopped working all together. My wife's Honda right next to it has no signal/reception issues whatsoever. I already sent a refresh signal (twice) and it...
