Replying to: greggboston (May 20, 2007 6:17 pm) Thanks for the suggestion about the disk size. I recreated my disk following the specs in the Nav manual and the clock still left the display. Hopefully they will find a fix before the car is too old.. Gary |

Finally.. I got to try E-85 Ethanol... A local dealer here in up-state New York now has it in 2 stations.. One in Albany and the other in Lake George. The gas hose is colored in Yellow and has all these warnings about putting Ethanol in a regular gas vehicle.. The owner came running out when he saw me start to use the pump screaming it was not for use in a regular gasoline car.. I then pointed to the "Flexfuel" badge on the back hatch and he smiled.. The cost was $2.59 a gallon. Not bad as regular here is up to $3.39 a gallon. I put in about 16 gallons.. I then took a 200 mile trip.. I noticed my overall mileage was down a bit (17.5 vs 19.2 MPG) but the car ran great. So.. I'm gonna keep using it for a while. Any others out there use E-85 yet?? By the way, I now have 31,765 miles on my '07 which will be one year old on June 30th. Steve in Saratoga Springs, NY

Replying to: saratogalake (Jun 04, 2007 11:56 am) Thanks for the feedback on E-85, I have also tried it but must admit I have not received the same results. I also live in up-state NY (Guilderland) and my 07 Tahoe only has 18K on the clock. My BEST tank on Reg Gas was 17.9 with an average of 15.4 I just returned from a trip to NC,1900 miles, best tank, 16.4, worst tank 14.2 again on Reg gas, we won’t talk about the numbers when running E-85, as they are to depressing. I have an open case with GM, actually the Tahoe goes in for service next week, they are going to change several sensors and the body control module. The service manager drove it for a week with similar results, so we both are convinced it is not driver related. Are you running 3:73’s or 4:10’s ? FYI, still no word on the wipers, but at least it stopped snowing for a while. George

So far I have put about 3k miles on my 07 Tahoe LTZ. First, I'll say that I think it's a big step up from the two Eddie Bauer Expeditions I owned previously. The Tahoe is better looking (much), smoother riding, and more intelligently designed across the board. The Tahoe's interior space seems smaller, but other than that the only drawback versus the Expedition is the third-row seat design. The fold-flat seat in the Expedition is much better than the heavy removable one in the Tahoe. On highway trips I've gotten up to 19 MPG, which is pretty damn good. I've had two problems so far: a dead battery (for no reason -- it was so dead that jump starting wouldn't help, and I had to call OnStar) and an *extremely* annoying rattle in the headliner. I'm taking it in next week to have the dealer fix the rattle. Here's my question: has anyone tried driving offroad, and specifically on the beach, with the factory 20" wheels? I've read that the bigger sized wheels do not perform as well in off-road conditions. One of the reasons I bought the Tahoe was for its 4WD performance (versus, say, the Yulon Denali with AWD), and I'm disappointed that the 20" wheels, which I didn't really want, can hinder performance. Any thoughts here? |
