    Rear Hatch Extremely Dirty

    Yes, I have the same problem with our 08 Yukon. It's not just these vehicles, because I've owned an Expedition, and also the wifes previous Mini-van was the same way. It's just something about the shape, that causes it.

    is the kon totaled????.... should I start saying my goodbyes..

    I paid $650 to have a hood painted 3 years ago, that didn't need bodywork, just sand, paint & clearcoat. I complained about the price, and was told the materials, was more than half the cost. I don't work in body work or anything, but I would guess, about $850, unless you really know...

    Painted or chrome mirrors!?!?

    I believe the all white would look the best. I also know it will be expensive to have the entire mirror sanded smooth, painted and clear coated. I have just the painted back cap portion, as it came from GM. The side and botom are still black, but it looks different on the Stealth Blue.

    08 yukon oil life??

    I watch the oil life monitor, but I change it when it gets down to about 20%. I don't let it get any dirtier, or less life left in the oil. Mine has been working out, so that it gets changed about every 5,000 miles.

    Dexcool Color

    Buy yourself a tester and be certain it is enough anti-freeze, in the system. One of those testers that has the floating balls, will tell you how cold your system can take the temperature. If you got a friend at a local garage, maybe you could get it tested and not have to buy the tester. I...

    Power Lift Gate Gear Stripped

    Sorry to hear it broke so easily, and it cost so much to fix. Great to hear that it is being fixed under warranty.

    08 Yukon SLT with a Denali look

    I do know that the Denali Bumpers are different. I bought the moded Splash guards, which you can buy painted to match your body color. You can only buy the Denali ones, and they will not fit an SLT. I got stuck, and had to buy Black ones and have them painted to fit an SLT.

    Side Window Air Deflectors

    I have been real happy with the PUTCO ones. They are also In-Channel. I got the (4) from Amazon for like $79.00 They (Putco) also have the Chrome ones, if you want those verses smoked, of course the Chrome, does cost more.

    Painted Running Boards

    I'm sure it can be done and will look great. They will just be too susceptable to scratching and rock chips. It would be great for a show-only vehicle, but would not last for a regular-use vehicle. I have seen some running boards painted on old street rods (30 & 40 model years), but they were...

    Splash Guards for power running boards

    I agree, the rear set just needs to match your bumper molding, that comes around to the rear wheel. I think the splash guards are just Denali (LTZ) or Non Denali (Non LTZ). The bumper trim is shaped differently. Power or non-power running board shouldn't matter.

    tire prrssure monitoring system

    That was good of the Dealer, to rotate your tires for you. But they should have known to reset, for the different wheel locations.

    washed and waxed the trucks today...

    It was cold this weekend in VA. The wind never stopped either. You will get the best pictures, if you take them real early or real late in the day. Your vehicle will be much more shiney. Also you need to have the Sun behind you, as you take the picture. Also the tripod or resting the camera...
