The second row looks folded down just like the current model. Thought it was some new technology. Guess they implied that towards the third row more so.

From what I can tell, on the LWB both rows are true fold flat, on the SWB it's kinda sort of fold flat with the 3rd row sloping upwards towards the second making it seem like the second row is fold flat, when it's actually like it is now. I guess it's as good as they could manage in a SRA SWB.

Ill probably be the first to say, I dont think the Tahoe looks bad. Paint that grille and window trim and it will look 10x better.

Love the interiors though, HUGE upgrade from the current gen. I would definitely rock either (if I had the funds, which from the sounds of it, this will be out of my league for a few years)

I agree. With a lot of the chrome color matched, the truck will look way better. For me, the biggest eyesore on the front end is the chrome on the headlights that continue from the grille.

Hopefully someone can do a photoshop the chrome out to see how it looks.

And this is useful:

Once you start paying attention to the details, interior and exterior, there's an awful lot to like about these SUVs. And GM seems to have noted all our complaints abut HIDs, fold flat seats, crappy nav/dated interior, 2nd row windows not going all the way down. The Denali is actually better equipped than any current Esky.

So mostly wins from my pov on the K2XX, except for the catastrophic tahoe/Burb front end. Someone needs to kill that with fire.

Agreed.


I REALLY like the compartments. I have had a case of beer in the back of my truck since Labor Day. Everyday, I hear that same case slliiiiiiiiide from the left to the right, hit the side and then sliiiiiiiiide back. This would fix that. There is no reason they haven't had some sort of integrated compartment until now. That's ridiculous.

We'll see what Esky looks like, but for now a Denali XL (with the 6.2, power step, and better interior) demolded dechromed to look like this SLT, with colrmatched D pillars, is the cleanest look for me:

Okay, slap on some 22s or 24s and a little drop and I'm good now. :)

I understanding everyone likes the fold flat seats, but doesn't that effectively decrease cargo room in the back by raising the floor when all folded down? Seems like you loose quite a bit of floor to ceiling cargo area.

I usually roll with 3rd row out and 2nd row folded, flipped up and dog-proofed, cuz I haul 2 100lb dogs around a lot. They're both stable as a dog can be in the back in the nnbs, but with a raised floor I can just see them flying around back there

Also, am I the only one who thinks a tailgate with power rear window is the best rear gate option?...I miss my '85 burb...

Personally the tahoe is RUINED , It looks like a Ford explorer…Honestly I hate the new tahoe , it looks Horrible .

The Yukon on the other hand looks 100x better.

NOT SURE how a case of beer survives in the back of your truck this long, ............... unless of course it is empty?
