I’m not sure if the new body style is growing on me or what but I like it. I hate the current fronted of the Tahoe’s through.

Might be the only way to keep on producing them, I believe medium duty gets a mileage pass from the man...


I think that going to come to an end soon unless Trump dialed back the restrictions. IIRC that why GM built the new 6.6L gassers.

Yeah worked on a 2018 HD suburban the other day. Everything minus body looked to be from the 00-2006 year range. It had a 6.0L and 6L90 in it. Not direct injected. So that was a plus. But I think GM really missed out not producing a suburban with a diesel in it. So many customers have asked me over the years if they’d ever do one.

Ya they need to at least make a model with the same diesel the 1/2 ton has if not a 6.6. And more gears in the trans. The 6.6 gas seems to suffer compared to the Ford 7.3 gas with its extra gears.

That said I will never own another Chevrolet with its current front end design. Most hideous thing I’ve ever laid eyes on. GMC is tolerable at least.

Just like when the ‘03 came out, it was the ugliest thing ever, now everybody is falling over themselves to get one. . . . . .

Wait till Ram comes out next year with the new ZF 8 speed. They will be able to open some serious power that they cannot do with their 2 PS transmissions.

I’ve heard this change. Any thing to get away from aisin is smart. Didn’t even like them when GM used them in the equinox or the cruze
