I have heard about the fuel nozzle extension on several posts... but not one has said where to find it? Its certainly not in the fuel nozzle door. Anyone?

Learned about the moisture sensor for the wipers, and noticed my wipers are not operating as they should. But I had also placed my easy pass just
below the sensor inside, and after moving it to another location... the wipers are doing what they should. Hope this helps someone.

Tire pressure's... The sticker on the door sill, is the recommended pressure. The tires have a max pressure embossed on the side wall, which is greater than the sticker.
So I am running about 5psi greater than sticker, and 4psi less than max. The result for me is a nice ride with about 24 mpg, but have seen slightly higher than that.

Tire size, I had 18" wheels/tires. Decided to up to 20's, and have not regretted the change. The ride is a little smoother, handling the same, and nicer looking wheels.

Automatic tail hatch operation... the foot kick works great... but it can trigger when least expected and give you a sore noggin if not careful.

I really wish the car had the surround vision backup system. That is something I am considering should I decide to upgrade.

OK, I am done venting... hope everyone had a good 4th.

The filler extension should have came with your truck and may have been in the bin under the cargo area in the rear. It looks like a funnel with the bowl cut off, if you will, right where it would start to flare out to make the cone of the funnel.

Tire pressure: another forum member provided me with this freakin’ MAGICAL resource to get your pressure dialed in when swapping sizes/ load ratings, etc:

From another thread:


And the max tire pressure on the tire sidewall is the highest pressure that is safe for the sidewall. That pressure may also be needed to maintain the tire's weight rating.

You can personalize the settings on the kick to open/close rear. I have mine to kick to open, but not to close...Logic: Hands usually not full when closing the hatch, vs opening it.

Wait... So you never take anything that you've loaded into the truck back out of the truck? Interesting...

I mentioned the hatch because of an incident unloading suit cases at the cruise port.
After pushing the open button on the ceiling, I exited the vehicle to unload, there were a couple of porters helping,
and my wife was getting things out also. But somebody activated the kick to operate sensor, and down comes the
hatch... my wife did not see it coming... and it got her on the noggin! It left a mark, but did not ruin the cruise.

Yes, I "accidentally" activated the kick to close once...thats when I turned it off...kick to open, perfect...I'd rather hit the button to close.

I don't understand why they made one small indentation to get your fingers into in front of the sun visor so that you can really only pull the visor down with your right hand and in that one specific spot. Makes no sense to me whatsoever.

Cant get it with ur left hand?
Gotta practice bro… youll get there
"Ur"? You typing on a flip-phone?

Seriously thought, it's a dumb "feature" in the '21+ Yukons. On both the driver's and passenger's sides, you have to feel along the front edge of the visor for the little spot GM gives you to get your fingers under the visor. I guess they wanted the visors to look "recessed" or something -- or maybe they just wanted them to be harder to use. Whatever the case, it's a poor design.
