Replying to: cecook (Jul 10, 2006 5:05 am) I'd be interested in hearing the results of this myself. I held off adding the door handles to my up-front mods to see what experiences others have. I really want to avoid messing up the interior door trim when replacing my handles, but the last thing I've seen online indicates that the interior door panels have to be removed to change out the handles. That's good because it means the handles are REALLY chrome handles, rather than just stick-on appliques. But that's bad because it means there's lots of potential to break a fastener or incorrectly reinstall something in the process.   I'll let someone else work out the correct procedure and the "gotchas" before I do the job myself.
#1340 of 3125 MPG by 07denali Jul 10, 2006 (8:13 am)
Didn't anyone test check the computer during the test drive before they bought to see the MPG it was getting? My Denali XL gets about 7-8 MPG city and 16-17 MPG highway. Am I surprised, no I looked checked the computer before I purchased and saw I averaged 7mpg during my test drive. Replies to this message: nosbor77 (Jul 13, 2006 9:22 am)
#1341 of 3125 Tahoe leveling kit by junglegeorge Jul 10, 2006 (11:53 am)
Does anyone have the scoop on this newly released 2 inch leveling kit? JUST RELEASED !! This is the first leveling kit for the 2007 Chevy Tahoe / Suburban 4x4. Works with autoride option as well. This kit raises the front of the vehicle 2". It is very easy to install and is backed by a lifetime warranty. Made from billet aluminum and the best hardware. Will not rust or corrode. This kit is made by Skyjacker and brought to you by Top Gun Customz (an authorized national distributor). This kit is very easy to install and does NOT require compressing the coilover for installation. It WILL maintain the factory ride of these vehicles unlike other leveling kits which install IN the coilover. This one installs on top of the coilover.   Maximum recommended tire\wheel size 285/70/17 with OEM/stock backspacing     George

Replying to: 2tahoes (Jul 08, 2006 3:44 pm) Reset the computer and start over again. The instruction manual tells you how to do this. I am regularly getting 17 to 18.4 MPG in mixed driving. If you zero out the computer and then do mainly stop and go driving, you should expect much less mileage than if you average it with highway driving as well. Mine now has 9,000 miles; the best I ever got was 22 MPG from Vermont to NJ.
#1343 of 3125 Mileage by 2tahoes Jul 10, 2006 (7:51 pm)
It's interesting to see everyone's posts regarding their MPG situations. I really appreciate the posts. While I was so excited to hear that the 07's where supposed to be so good and then be a little dissappoined, I wouldn't trade mine for any foreign job. So much to love compared to my 01 tahoe. Still can't figure out what GM was thinking when they show (on their web site and in their brochures) all these great after market goodys that still aren't available!

Replying to: cecook (Jul 10, 2006 5:05 am) Nope. Did put in billet grill tho. Thinking about the GM perf. or touring exhaust. There was someone who was talking about chrome door handles in this forum.

Replying to: nosbor77 (Jul 09, 2006 10:15 pm) I remember seeing on this forum or some other online forum that to get the best mileage, you should drive such that you never have to brake above 40 mph. Of course this excludes emergencies. I think the point was is to look ahead and anticipate what traffic and signal lites are doing so that you can let up early if needed (without blocking someone behind you like Matt Kenseth did yesterday at Chicagoland to Jeff Gordon). I know this is hard to do especially if you like the sound of the induction noise (I do) when you get on it. Was really surprised that it is that loud with all of the resonance chambers they use. Kind of like when we use to turn the air cleaner cover upside down. That probably dates me.

Replying to: 2tahoes (Jul 10, 2006 7:51 pm) I've got an '07 Escalade running the 403hp, 6sp tranny. At 5000 miles, I'm averaging 15.2 combined.   Pure highway, minding a 65mph max, I get 19 (flat road). In the hills here in Tahoe, about 16.5.   Pure round-town with no more than 45mph, and no more than 1/2 mile between stop signs or round-abouts, about 10.5.   Dave
#1348 of 3125 Trying to decide if I should buy 2007 Tahoe! by ekcjwc Jul 11, 2006 (8:23 am)
I currently have a 04 Honda Pilot. I love the looks of the Tahoe but am a little concerned about the size and gas mileage. My Honda gets 20.5 MPG around town and 24 on the highway. Would love to hear your thoughts about the 07 Tahoe! Thanks! Replies to this message: samk17 (Jul 11, 2006 10:14 am) stormin800 (Jul 12, 2006 5:31 am)
