2024 Tahoe EV RST look.

[IsmaelSalas]

Not a fan of electrical vehicles, been known to catch fire while charging. No thank you.

So what do you all think of the possible look of the new Tahoe RST EV?

What's involved in converting it to V8 power gasoline?

I know I am an old fart and probably in the minority but I think all the 2021 and up trucks are ugly, plus they got rid of the solid rear axle and went to IRS which although it may ride better, which is a matter of opinion, it is NOT a truck.

I find that almost all new vehicles look alike, there is no style anymore, even the trucks look like a car designer designed them.

I guess I am an old fart too at 30.

The GMT900 is probably the last true truck SUV, as it was the last generation to be mostly problem free especially in the later years.

A battery powered SUV is simply a bad idea, Ford mentioned that the F150 lightning shouldn't have looked like an F150 as it kills the efficiency of the battery and the Hoe/Kon is probably no different.

Unless they are targeting the soccer mom crowd this just doesn't make sense. The mission of these trucks is to haul people and things across vast distances, and while being able to tow reasonable weights between 5-10k. Can't wait for the reviews when they put 1,000lbs in the cabin and put 2,500lbs behind simulating snowmobiles or a larger bass boat.

The new '21+ models weren't on my radar last year when I was in the market. If I didn't find my 2013 2500 I would have jumped ship and grabbed an Expedition timberline. If I was going to get into the IRS, Ford has been doing it longer and the V6 issues have been worked out.

Citizen, you must return home IMMEDIATELY for two weeks to help stop the spread of prosperity and success. We're all in this together!

The Silvaerado EV looks bad in the front and so does this one. I think the vehicle as a whole looks good though.

What you'll find in the SUV/Truck EVs is that they find any possible way to save weight on the body. I would expect much more plastic all around, almost like the OG avalanche (which was a truck way ahead of its time).

no

Might be more reliable than the current AFM & transmission destroying slip-clutch converter setup in the gas models though?

I bet it even has "Vegan Leather" interior...

its a very expensive way of saying vinyl. What is Vinyl made of again? Isnt that a Petroleum by-product?

everything is made with oil

EV's....... $70,000 tax money finances will cover manufacture cost of 1 of these "Tahoes" ( if not more), So WE pay for every purchase. ( + - )....
It takes 500,000 tons of earth to be dug up, for the metals, to manufacture ONE standard EV battery.
ONE hour of a "fast charge" at a station, is 240 times the KW voltage of a standard house usage, in 24 hours.
The added fees from electric utilities..... we all will have our electric service increased.
Child slave labor is rampant in countries mining the rare metals.
Afghanistan ( slaves), other African countries ( slaves), China ( slaves) mines the rare metals.
Battery replacement in a standard EV is around $20,000. I can't imagine the cost in a "Tahoe".

Dodge has a full-size EV truck on the way..... With an onboard natural gas powered generator to charge the battery. ( since the charger charges ONLY the battery, and not assist the "power" for the electric motors, it is still subsidized by taxpayers as an EV, not a hybrid.

NEVER drive it in the northern areas where salt is applied to snow.

( I can go on)

Bring back push buttons on the center of the steering wheel!!!!

Air bags moved the buttons out side of the steering wheel center.
