    28.3 MPG - 2018 Tahoe Premier 4x4 6.2L

    I'm amazed at the fuel economy of my Tahoe. Now with almost 62k miles, recently driving solo from Las Vegas to Rancho Cucamonga, over 214 miles, used 1/4 tank of fuel, 28.3mpg on the DIC. It later went up to 29mpg as I descended down to Ontario, about 10 miles further. My cruise control was...

    How dependable are Chevy Tahoes?

    Should last as long as any similar gas powered Chevy/GMC truck for towing. It's a full frame SUV, with optional towing package, and 4 wheel drive, my 2018 Tahoe has no problem towing, and stopping my 29ft boat.

    Dinghy towing 2016 Tahoe

    Oh man! I hate when salesmen make assurances that they know nothing about. I had a variety of similar experiences in talking to car sales people. I'd go into the dealership and ask the parts guys to pull up both vehicles, they can show you both transfer cases. Did you get any of the...

    Dinghy two 2016 Tahoe

    I had the same issue with my H2. I ended up installing a round 6 pin adaptor to my universal 7 pin on the motor home. That gives you a power lead to the dinghy from the motor home, preventing the battery from being discharged on the dinghy when towing. I have a 2015 Tahoe, and intend to set it...

    need more power

    How many miles on that '94? I wouldn't do anything wild, your trans in that '94 won't handle it unless you beef it up too. Lots you can do to that 350, just depends on how much you want to spend. If you want durability and drivability, look at a crate motor from GM. Lots of HP options, but...

    Dinghy towing 2016 Tahoe

    I believe it has to do with the electronic steering, not the locking of the steering. I dinghy towed my H2 for years, had to have the ignition on, to keep the steering wheel unlocked. I had to add a 12v power feed to the vehicle in the round 6 pin connector that ran the tail lights, signal...
