Does anyone know how much power the 110 volt outlet in the 2015 Tahoes put out? I'm wondering if I can use it to power my sub pump when the power goes out. I imagine it has enough power to run that. What about a fridge if the power is out long term?

I got an 8" drop for my boat trailer. There is another user on this thread that got a 12" drop. That seems like a crazy drop. My 8" drop tows great and level to boot. Make sure you are measuring correctly (top of truck receiver to bottom of trailer coupler)...

I've used a Samsung Galaxy S4 and an LG G2 with the Mylink system on my 2015 Tahoe LT. I've noticed that the S4 played better with the Mylink system. The G2 drops pod casts all of the time, and needs to be rebooted in order to play a different audio stream (i.e. Pandora to iHeart). Neither...

When you say it works, does that mean it works with the key fab and the Onstar RemoteLink app?

It's that smart. It knows when it is outside of the vehicle. You could be leaning on the door and it would still know you were outside. In fact you could be sitting in the driver's seat, roll down the window and put your hand out the window (with the remote in your hand). When you close the...

Are there any 12-Volt outlets that remain "hot" after the vehicle is turned off? On my 2004 Tahoe, I could leave my phone plugged in after I turned the vehicle off, and it would continue to charge. I can't find a "hot" outlet anywhere in the vehicle.

My Tahoe will chirp 3x if I leave the FOB in the car and close the door or if I have it running and take the FOB out of the car.

I got a cushioned ball mount from etrailer.com. Here is a link. http://www.etrailer.com/Ball-Mounts/Convert-A-Ball/AMSC8.html I went with a 10,000 lb limit because I didn't want to have to buy another one later if I wanted to tow something heavier than my boat. BTW, I installed the hitch and...

I have the Navigation icon on my screen in my Tahoe, but when I click it the screen wants me to call Onstar. Do I have to call Onstar every time I want directions or am I missing something?

My 8" drop hitch is coming today from etrailer.com. I will let you know if it works correctly for towing my boat. On my 2004 Tahoe, I had a 2" drop, so this will be a big change. I measured to the top of the truck receiver and it was 24 1/16". I measured to the bottom of the boat coupler and...

If you had to move 3" from your 2013 to your 2015, then I will have a much bigger drop than that. I'm coming from a 2004 which had the hitch below the bumper. It also had 17" wheels. I'll have to get the tape measure out this weekend. If I understand this correctly, I need to measure from...

Sorry, my bad. It was 450 using the same app you mentioned. I measured too many ports yesterday and lost track. The new USB ports can output 1000mA, so you can put some blame on the Tahoe. http://thegeekpostblog.blogspot.com/2011/08/what-that-lightning-bolt-on-my-usb-port.html

I'm coming from a 2004 Tahoe, and I only needed a 2" drop to obtain a level trailer. How big of a drop are you guys using on the 2015 Tahoes? I've heard of people using a 7 3/4" drop, and that sounds crazy to me.

I ran a test with the USB ports in my 2015 Tahoe LT last night, and they are pathetic for charging. My Samsung Galaxy s4 reported 650 mA. That's terribble considering my phone gets 1200 mA when plugged into an outlet or 1000mA on a 12 volt charger. It would take 4 or 5 hours to charge a dead...

Hey guys and gals! I'm just curious if anyone else is having problems with static when listening to FM. We have a new FM sports station in Chicago that is at the lowest possible FM dial (87.7). My old Tahoe (2004) and every other car I have been in sounds normal on this station. In my new...
