    Traded in the Burb

    Back story.......we had a 2018 Expedition that had higher miles and traded it in July 22 on a new 2022 Suburban LT using a good friend's A-plan (Exec Referral) coupon. Black LT with captains chairs, panoroof, 20" wheels and Safety package. Suburban ran and drove fine, we didn't have any...

    Durability of cheap-feeling interior plastics?

    22 Suburban LT. Black interior, quad buckets. We have 3 kids so our vehicle sees regular usage in all 3 rows. I’m pretty OCD about keeping my vehicles clean and in as “new” condition as possible. Has anyone else noticed that some of the interior plastics seem to be sub-par? Are yours...

    Anyone else struggle with the A-pillar blind spot?

    My wife is short........4-10", and she's struggling with the blind spot on our new 22 Suburban LT. I drove across the state and picked this car up new, without having her drive it first (in hindsight, dumb) as she had driven multiple examples of both previous generations and not had any...

    Keep it or sell? Help me diagnose a couple issues please

    2014 Escalade ESV...........70k miles. Bought it with 30k, still have 3 months worth of GMEPP warranty that I can extend for another couple years for $2-3k. Car is immaculate inside and out, despite being a Midwest vehicle it's always been undercoated and has no visible rust and very little...

    Least problems? 18+ with 5.3 or 6.2?

    I need to replace our 2014 Escalade and I'm trying to pick the most reliable replacement. This 6L80 seems to be shifting strange now, with only 70k miles, which I'm surprised because I was under the impression that it was generally pretty reliable. I know the 15/16/17 were more...
