From A NNBS to a NBS to a K2 comparison in driving and quirks
Well, to re visit this, I broke my rule and bought a 8 speed. Yeah it has a hunt for shifts every once in a while under very light throttle for 1-2 shift, but if you commit and give it a 1500 rpm shift or better, its like butter and happy. It really shines under 1/2 or WOT applications, I like...- Bigkevschopshop

Those Who Moved From an '07-14 to '15+ generation... How Was It?
I wrote a review on what I have noticed. https://www.tahoeyukonforum.com/threads/from-a-nnbs-to-a-nbs-to-a-k2-comparison-in-driving-and-quirks.129349/ The driving experience of the K2 is what has me hooked right now, the seats grab you better, the chassis hits the corners better. MRC is...- Bigkevschopshop

2025 Yukon refresh
After seeing the dash, looks like they took a pot, mixed up the Ford and Jeep dashes, baked it for an hour and this is what you get... I was hoping for better but looks like the winner now is the Tahoe-Suburban lineup.- Bigkevschopshop

Rear axle cross compatibility.
Finding the 3.73 gears will narrow you down on the years, I think only the z71 of the 00-06 had 3.73 gears. The 3.42 and 3.08 rule the roost from I think 08 and up. The only exception was the suburban 2500 but its not compatible. The main reason for the 3.42 and 3.08 option was the 6l80e...- Bigkevschopshop

Operating Temperature - Transmission
It takes mine in Houston weather about 30 minutes in traffic to reach my normal operating temp. I have the superior reprogram on the thermostat, Summer 140-150 degrees highway cruise temp, Winter 125 to 130 degrees highway cruise. The warmup time in winter on straight freeway driving is a bit...- Bigkevschopshop

Hard Trany shifts. Q’s for the pros
Great advice, and a new filter with the updated fluid will probably help out alot also. Dont forget to do the Superior cooler bypass while you are down there. Personally find a good reputable builder if that doesn't fix it. But there are alot of threads on the internet of the harness and VB...- Bigkevschopshop

2023 Tahoe Premier towing issues, no air ride
Personally I would bump your tires up when towing to max psi on the tires. This helps tighten things up a bit. The q7 vs the tahoe are a huge difference in suspension balance and feel. The low Center of gravity on the 7 helped make the feel of more planted and the suspension travel also has...- Bigkevschopshop

2020 Tahoe Premier Smash or Pass?
Well, I'm on x2 of K2 myself. The RST does hold its value pretty well. I just picked up my Esky Platinum in December for 36k just a point to ponder. Less miles but a few years older than the RST you are talking about. If you can get it for under 40k then I would say to do it. It all...- Bigkevschopshop

Tahoe vs Yukon pricing and predicted reliability
I have owned 2 of the 3 triplets... Food for thought. The 3 main issues on all 3 are the lifter failures, trans issues, and the mag ride... Once you take all 3 of those out of the equation, Its down right rugged across all 3. Lifter failure is a russian roulette, never know when its going...- Bigkevschopshop

black interior (upper)
I looked into this when I had my suburban. The A pillars are a ? mark for me, the dash differences would really be the question at hand. The B pillars, headliner, C and D pillars are all the same and interchange. You will need the interior pieces from a Escalade Platinum. Headliner etc...- Bigkevschopshop

Should I consider buying a 2015+ Yukon?
I've owned now two of the K2 platform. First was a 15 Burb with a 6 speed, and now a 17 Esky with the 8 speed. Coming from the 4 speed to either of these is a game changer. The 10 speed has better gear programming in the TCM for gear selection, but I hatE the constant gear changes. I bought...- Bigkevschopshop

Had to scratch the itch!
I was out and about last night after cleaning her up.. While the wife was in the store I decided to snap some pictures in the parking lot. I will say this, the front bumper looks so much better without the license plate bracket. I need to replace the CUE screen as it tries to make some...- Bigkevschopshop

Had to scratch the itch!
Did the first 3 mods, Removed front license plate bracket, Superior trans cooler reprogram and threw the airaid MIT I had on the burban on the 6.2 now... Worked like a charm.... Next few coming up will be puddle light projectors and replacing the cue screen is more Maintenace than anything...- Bigkevschopshop

2016 Advice
Suggestion, If you got the carfax, review maintenance done, but I would start with a fluid change on trans, not a flush. Rear end diff fluid. Coolant change and brake fluid flush. Check all suspension parts for play, grease tie rod ends if applicable. Clean the throttle body. Run some...- Bigkevschopshop

Thanks man. Yeah the cue leaves alot to be desired for sure. I know why they ditched it now! haha. There are a few things I miss from the Burb/Yukon platform but the love of this vs the missing of the little things still keep me planted here now. Yeah the 6.2 is a game changer, I have had 2...- Bigkevschopshop

Damn, MDX is a bit small for sure, but the better half got something good and you did to then. Denali is the way to go for sure, the 6.2 pulls epic for sure. Just put the foot in it and it pulls instead of downshifting. Wait till you haul with it! Its a great experience for sure. Congrats to...- Bigkevschopshop
