This thread was originally created when I was selling my 2008 white Tahoe LTZ and ended up buying the avalanche and esky so a mod renamed the thread. So I could see how you could get confused :)

Yep 01 Tahoe Z71 to 08 Tahoe LTZ to my current 07 Avy/07 Esky... I don't think i'll ever buy a vehicle that is non-GM actually. When the Avy is sold I will buy another 07+ Yukon or Tahoe... just looking for the right deal. Also not sure if I am going to go Z71 off road style or an LTZ/Denali... decisions decisions.

truck looks great felix....but those tires are kinda on the small side aren't they? :shrug:

Thanks! They are 305/40/22's which are wider than the stock tires but has a slightly thinner sidewall. They're actually as big as you can go without rubbing :)

Yea I brought that up to my fiance (the main driver of the esky) and although I pay the note, she makes the ultimate decisions on it :/ She shoots it down every time I bring it up. I definitely agree it could use a 40 or 45 sidewall but if I got that it would rub and that wouldn't be good :)

Well I just ordered the 2012 esky premium center console lid. The stock esky 07-11 one doesn't have the gap/insert in the the middle to put your phone and other misc items in. It was $225 and part #: 22796245

Well I just replaced my center console lid to the new '12 premium ebony one with the insert. It looks a million times better. To install it you unscrew 2 screws holding the rear console AC controls in place and use a flat head screwdriver to pry it off since it's only held on with clips (aside from the two screws). Once the rear AC controls are off, you un-screw 5 screws holding the center console lid in place, open the lid, and pull up on it. It will slide right out. Thanks to NathanJax for walking me through this process (which I thought was going to be way harder then it actually was).

Thanks Jacob!! Yes I'm actually selling it. I'm going with the leveled 22's & 33's look so I personally think it'll look better with no roof rack.

I just got my ck375 reps in an hour ago:

The Toyo Open Country M/T 33's come in Wednesday so all that and the 2.5 TGC front only leveling kit will all be on in a few days hopefully!!

I second the look of being rackless :D

LOL yea I surprisingly really like the look.
