I get 13-15 around town and 20 on the freeway. My mpg/tank is usually 16-17, since my driving is a mix of the two.

To answer my own question, I heard back from Peripheral, and the PXAMG does not have the 35 display limit, so it looks like that's the one I'm going to get. The rep told me that the PXAMG is much more functional and easy to use than the PXPD3, and they are currently working on a Bluetooth module...

Steering wheel control.

I wasn't that impressed with, it and since work pays for my cell (and my Bluetooth headset) I decided to stick with that.

I have the factory Nav -I prefer a stock look, and I hate having things mounted on the dash/windshield. Plus, it's integrated with the rest of the features, and it's voice-activated - I never have to take my eyes off the road.

So Peripheral has finally released the long-awaited Automotive Media Gateway (performerly known as the PXDG, now the PXAMG) for the 07 Tahoe (link), but I'm not sure if I want this one or the PXPD3 that dcbeltran installed. The PXAMG installs behind the stereo - not the XM - which means that I...

Saw one today while dropping my kid off at school. It's definitely bigger (i.e. taller) than my Tahoe, but then again, I'm sitting on stock 17s. It's beefy-looking, but I thought it was much uglier as well. It's really hard to improve on the current Tahoe exterior, at least IMO.

I plan on keeping this one at least 100,000 miles, probably 125,000 or so. I kept my last rig until 122,000 miles. I tend to keep my cars for awhile.

Rain-X blades work well too - at least they did on my last rig. Haven't changed the blades on my Tahoe yet.

No wind noise with my Tahoe. It's quiet in there - much quieter than my old SUV, and much quieter than the Expy which I test-drove prior to getting my Tahoe.

All of the DVDs in my Tahoe are backups that I've burned onto DVD+/-R discs, and they play fine. However, I have no idea whether it will read/play DVD mp3 audio files only.

Sweet. Looks like I have to get one. :)

So you can fit the wireless headsets beneath it or not? C'mon people - you're killing me here! ;)

How much room is left underneath the tray? Enough for the wireless headsets for the RSE (if you have those)?

I looked long and hard at the Expy before getting my new Tahoe, and when it came down to it, I liked the Tahoe in every category except for the fold-flat third row. I like the looks of the Tahoe quite a bit more, and there's no comparison for the interior - the Expy dash/interior just looks...
