Z71 Package

[jmitchell]

Forgive me if this has already been posted but I stumbled upon the Z71 package for the Tahoe. Looks like it has a new grille (less bars than LTZ), unique bumper without the lower front valance (been wondering what that would look like), special running boards, wheels, and comes standard with tow hooks (there's a novel idea!)...

Thats the first I've seen of a Z71.

Throw some 22s on it and then I'll tell you if I like it. Those wheels are so small I can't even make a judgement! lol

Do like it w/o the valance.

No fender flares? Doesn't seem as aggressive as previous years... I don't like it

Tires are a joke. As Eric said it looks good without the lower deflector, and I like that cover a lot better. But it needs some meat under it.

Yup, needs taller tires and ditch the chrome grille.

Z71 used to mean something..... now its played.

Z71 to me hasn't been anything since the early 90s. Back when the Z71 was the badass on he block. Now enthusiasts just laugh at it. GM should have used the name as a raptor competitor... But no.

appearance-wise it looks much better imo, would like to see one lifted, w fender flares, fatter tires, and maybe brushed aluminum trim rather than chrome on windows and grill.

overall i would say it's a step in the right direction
