#11 of 6387 Brake wear by figmoman Dec 04, 2000 (5:05 am)
I just rotated my Wilderness LE's for the second time tonight with 19,100 miles on them. Very little wear showing and its even wear. Im impressed at the brake wear(or lack of). The front pads don't appear to have any reduced thickness. The backs are a little thiner. This is interesting because the backs will usually last longer. These trucks must be engineered to have the rears do more braking as the rears are actually bigger than the fronts. All the cars ive had, the reverse has been true. Extrapolating from what i see at this milage i think i can get mayby 60 to 75 thousand out of the rears and 100 thousand out of the fronts. I am easy on brake though.

#15 of 6387 Fog Lights by fclspat Dec 04, 2000 (1:55 pm)
They a certainly there for decorative purposes. On a clear evening press the fog light button while sitting in the truck. You won't notice the sightest bit of difference in illumination. IMHO Sil

They do add a little extra light, but definity not as much light as one would expect if they were supposed to be 'driving' lights. I find they give extra light to the sides and give a wider field of view. Clifford
#17 of 6387 Brakes.... by selman Dec 04, 2000 (2:32 pm)
My TransAm(4 wheel disc) wears the rear brakes faster than the fronts as well. The rear pads are a little less thick than the fronts when new, but I would think the braking system puts more emphasis on the rear brakes for what ever reason. May have something to do with the ABS. Either way, I thought it was kind of strange the first time I went to do a brake job. I assumed it was the fronts that were starting to squeel but it was the rear set. To date, replace rear set twice front set once. Scott Replies to this message: engineer1 (Jul 18, 2004 6:47 am)
#18 of 6387 Windows... by selman Dec 04, 2000 (2:32 pm)
Had both rear window motors replaced not too long ago. No problems YET with the new ones. The new motors were the same part number as the original so I would imagine it's just a matter of time. Scott Replies to this message: superhosemike (Oct 29, 2004 5:34 pm)
#19 of 6387 Fog Lights by mpanek Dec 04, 2000 (2:40 pm)
On one foggy morning I put on the famous fog lights, knowing it was not helping me but maybe with 4 lights facing forward someone else could see me better. When I got home from the 20 minute trip, I only had 3 lights facing forward, one of the cheap fog light bulbs exploded. dealer gave me a new bulb under warranty, but they are just a novelity that I think I will avoid using.

#20 of 6387 Got my new Yukon (finally) by koithan Dec 04, 2000 (3:42 pm)
After waiting through a very long order process (ordered in July), I finally took home my Pewter 4wd ISD Yukon. So far I love it. It is cool to see over even other SUVs on the road. It rides nice (for a truck) and is very comfortable. Thx for all the tips! Replies to this message: airtahoe (Jun 04, 2006 9:13 am)
