I did have a 1988 4WS Honda Prelude in almost the same color as the Tahoe.

Lol... I should have known someone would comment on my unmanicured fingers. Lol

And the readjusted odometer back in place.

Thx man. Trying to channel some of your picture talent from the beach...

Nothing here for good pictures in north Abalamba

77k miles? That has to be the lowest mileage NBS I’ve seen in awhile

Not even close for me. Grandfather had a fully loaded 03 4X4 with 47k on it. Just recently sold it because my grandmother passed away

I'm assuming I have a "sport" tune loaded for when I push my fancy tow/haul button. I'm assuming @Fosscore may have a similar setup

Best trailer hitch I never use. But it was recently powder coated and looks great in my shed.

Yes it is set up with the fancy tow/haul ass button. You know “sport edition” NBS Tahoe.

Busy day waiting on the rain to come spot the truck so took my daughter to lacrosse practice, then grabbed my boy and took them to BurgerFi for lunch, did a little Mother’s Day shopping, let them try every massage chair in Brookstone and finally grabbed some soft serve before returning home.

Great day with the kids and a picture of the truck from lunch, just because.

Drivers reverse light was out. Pulled the housing, reseated the bulb and it powered up.

Noticed that my headlight switch was not lighting up even after just having the blue LEDs installed.

Pulled the switch, unplugged the harness, plugged it back in and it powered up. Hopefully it was just the plug not being seated tight enough.

Headlight switch not illuminated.

Took a picture from the back seat and the drivers seat while taking in a moment to listen to and feel the music and admire that awesome looking dash.

Super nice work @ScottyBoy

I want these

The SERVICE AIR BAG message popped up on the DIC this week. I changed the passenger side out back in 2016, so I figured it would be the drivers side this time.

In September 2016, the price was $65.68 on Amazon Prime.
In May 2018, that unit is no longer sold on Amazon. The new price online and locally was $106!

Here is the unit you need. Dorman 590-200 Front Impact Sensor

Timing for Memorial Day 25% off at Advanced Auto Parts worked in my favor and it was in stock. The price was still $86.65.

Took me about 10 minutes between storms and waiting for the driveway to dry. A 10mm wrench and the new sensor was installed and the message was off the DIC.

Here's what the sensor looks like. For those who do not know where the sensors are located, lay down under the truck and look up above the front bumper. There are (2) harnesses (one goes to the drivers sensor and one goes to the passenger sensor) that are between the centerline of the truck and where the fog lights are. There should be an orange safety clip (pull that out first) and then pinch the connector out. Use a 10mm wrench or socket to remove the attached bolt and replace the sensor.

It has been raining like crazy here for the past 2 weeks. We are near 15 inches of rain for the month of May and there has been no reason to wash either of the trucks. The Suburban is a mess, but here's a pic of the Tahoe between storms.
