It will last 300-400k easily. I have an 05 with 265k and it has plenty of life left.
I would have to keep it 20-35 years to get that kinda mileage..
Might need to get ULTRA Super capacitor in it by then... get me like 150 miles range on the capacitors..



I think by then battery tech will be great and can unlock the car passed 30mph on electric......


because the SUV has BIG space for a HUGE battery 3rd row delete

wont even hit 100k tell at lest 2 years from now


87,120 miles as of today

with out the 3rd row I think I could daisy chain about 10 batteries modules... with the current battery setup


They should have made a Extended range PlugIn with 3rd row delete...


Mark my words if i won the lotto I would mod this tahoe and put 10 additional battery packs inside With Plug In or with lithium equivalent. (preferred)... steal em out of a prius..

Just passed 103K on my 2004 Denali. Supposed to get my new company car in the next few weeks. I probably won’t put more than 4K to 5K a year on it after that. So far, my biggest one time repair was for the driver side seat heater elements. Still wish I never sold my 2002 XL, but I cant complain the way this one has treated me.

Nice!
I have an 07 Tahoe LTZ 4x4 but with 282k miles - original everything. I’ll easily hit 300k this year as I commute 900 miles a week for work. Normal maintenance performed regularly. I’ll be replacing the wheel bearings later this week. Other than that, a quart of oil in-between changes keeps her happy.

93 Silverado - little over 300,000
02 Suburban- just shy of 300,00
05 Yukon- 170,000 ish
09 Streetglide- 55,000
00 Moto Guzzi Jackal - 24,000
73 Moto Guzzi Eldorado - I have no freakin' clue.
62 Me - Odometer cable broke, brake cables sag, tires bald, headlights dim, battery weak, water in the tank, muffler nonexistent, paint faded, doesn't smoke, but does leak oil and shakes like a dog shittin' razor blades if you get above 30mph.

My 2013 Denali has 38K miles on it. It's used only when needed, long trips, many passengers etc. I don't consider a large SUV a "fun" vehicle. I have 6 other vehicles that cause considerably more adrenaline to be pumped.

I’ve headlight restored them several times over, but I could honestly careless at the moment. Unfortunately I’m not satisfied with any of the aftermarket headlight assemblies either, therefore I’m going a completely different direction and going full one-off custom. And with anything custom, it takes time, so please be patient. Just be on the look out when I update my build thread.

I restore headlights. Once I sand and polish I use a 2 part clear that protects against UV. Lasts a long time.

I can agree with you about a large vehicle not being "fun" especially if one of the vehicles you speak of is in your avatar ;)

2009 Hybrid ** at +205k The ole ** actually runs and drives very well. Bought with 195k miles for dirt cheap last year. I have spent some dollars on it with the biggest expense the replacement of the Hybrid battery. Unless if was done prior to purchase you will need to figure in a full front end rebuild on a high mileage GM truck. Also need to figure in a full fluid change differentials/brake fluid "blinker fluid" everything Haha. I see a lot of these for sale with some pretty lofty prices and if a person where not careful and did not make allowance for repair expense in their purchase price they could easily get financially hurt on one....................

The wife and I quit bringing our bikes down. Too many stupid drivers here and we found the riding pretty boring here in SWFL compared to Southern WV. We spent one Summer in Gainesville and enjoyed riding there except it was humid as hell.
