Ah I see:
L9H NEW! Engine, Vortec 6.2L V8 SFI(tbd hp [tbd kW] @ tbd rpm, tbd lb-ft of torque [tbd N-m] @ tbd rpm)

"TBD" - Interesting. I wonder if they're popping up the ponies a bit because the 6.2 is available in the "non" Denali trims now......

 

[LAP TOP GAMER]

I find it interesting that the 6.2 liter engine isn't flex fuel.

 

[tbully]

Agreed. That and / or the displacement on demand system would be nice......

Wow, this could put the Tahoe over the top for suv of the year.

I think they should rename the LTZ model as the Bling model. “LTB†:cool2:

BS! Only LTZ :mad2:
(KB6) heated and cooled driver and front passenger seats (LTZ models only)
(UFT) side blind zone alert (LTZ models only)


I don’t need them, but it is about time these items were included as an option: :thumbsup:

(K5L) Heavy-Duty Trailering Package, includes
(KNP) transmission oil cooler
(KC4) engine oil cooler, electric fan, and heavy-duty radiator
(JL1) integrated trailer brake controller


Probably not enough people ordering them, so they must get rid of them:
(V1K) luggage rack center rails are now packaged on LT and LTZ models

I need to see these before I order mine: :excited:
(333) Light Cashmere/Dark Cashmere interior trim now available on Z71 models
(833) Light Titanium/Dark Titanium interior trim now available on Z71 models
(DRC) Inside rearview mirror with rear camera display

Thanks for the Info!

I didn't pay much attention to the Tahoe stuff because I'm in the market for a Denali. However, it seems they've essentally made the LTZ a Denali now.

So - What's the diff between the two aside from the badges now!?

Inside rearview mirror with rear camera display

Thanks for the Info!

Same one as found on the H2/H3 HUMMERS. It's a nice feature, but I can tell you that my current Tahoe's Nav has a much beter rear cam/cam display than the mirror with the pop out screen on my H2.

It is cool looking though to see a screen pop out the side of the mirror.

Are they still going to have the 6-Speed tranny for the Tahoe in 09??? That's the main reason I've been holding off right now, but I didn't see it on the list. Has it been confirmed elsewhere?

 

[jlcvt]

M30 Transmission, 4-speed automatic
MYC Transmission, 6-speed automatic

Are both listed under the RPO codes, so I guess it’s going to be available. If not I’m not going to be happy about it.

It says that the 4 speed goes with the LS (don't remember if that was only with 4.8L) and that the 6 speed is standard on everything LT1 and up.

In the list of deletions it says that morocco/ebony and light titanium/ebony are no longer available on Z71. Then if you go to Ordering Info, Colors and Trim, choose "ZY1 for Z71", it clearly shows those as what is avalable. What gives?
