I still like the transport wheels, but I feel like they fit better on older vehicles, not so much on the newer models. I do want a set for winter wheels

They're just like any other style of wheel- they have their places. Black transport wheels on your Tahoe would have it's own kinda cool, IMO.

Tell me about it, I do see them on c-list every now and then. I let a set for $400 slip a few months back and regret it.....I need to get a connect at a chevy or caddy dealer

$400 is a pretty good price.

Good idea ditching them heavy a$$ 22’s. I still need to get new set but can’t decide. I’m gonna need tires before winter also. If it’s got **** tires or floats it’s a money pit.

ow they really look great. I didn't even know that was a thing. I'm learning so much on here.After all this and reading the ty forums, I started to get the mod bug! Thx guys.
I really liked the rear Escalade appliques. Hard to find in my neck of the woods, and at the time no one was selling a set on the forums. Saw an ad on cl for a set. Score! Guy was parting out an Escalade and was selling a set for $100. Only thing was I had to drive 2 hrs one way to pick them up. No biggie. Came home with these. This was after the color match, which I bartered some other work for. Came out great. Perfect match. View attachment 79886

Damn--reverse lights not working now, and fuses are good. The never ending story. Anyone have any ideas?
Burn it to the ground lol. But pull the engine first. Oh wait...it has problems too.

Shows proper gear selection, PRNDL etc. Would that still work if it was the selector?

Engine is good buddy. Everything else is just getting older. I have to drive it everyday now--didn't before. Had it up to 126--so it runs greatBurn it to the ground lol. But pull the engine first. Oh wait...it has problems too.
NA!
Doesn’t it still go into reduced power mode? Sucks that’s still happening.Engine is good buddy. Everything else is just getting older. I have to drive it everyday now--didn't before. Had it up to 126--so it runs great

Yeah, I don't really consider that motor related. I'm almost positive it's the tps plug I replaced. Feels a little loose. If I jiggle it around you can hear and feel the guts of the tps clicking. From the motor shaking I think it jiggles that plug enough to cause it to lose contact--enough to get that damn reduced engine power.Doesn’t it still go into reduced power mode? Sucks that’s still happening.
I was just messin' Tony. You have a few little things, nothing major. You'll figure them out.

Thx for the vote of confidence Mark. She's getting long in the tooth, and stuff just breaks now. Has around 292-295,000 on it. Poor ol' girl.
Yep. I just sold the Tahoe I had with 265k on it a few minutes ago. Nobody wanted to take a chance on it due to the mileage. Stupid, they go for 400-500 k no problem with just maintenance. 3k is all I could get, third time listing it on FB marketplace and the first people to look at it. Been trying for 2 months to sell it.

I forgot what you paid--hopefully you made a few $$ on it. More money to put into the beast ir silverado.
