Replying to: tom213 (Jul 18, 2007 5:53 pm) " new disk could become available right after you purchased and you'll have to wait a full year to get a database that will get replaced again just as you're getting the one year old version!! "   Y'know, we have a 2002 Infiniti with a NAV and we still find that the Original Nav disk still works just fine. Over time there usually aren't significantly enough changes for most people to notice. Of course if a new freeway or highway opens that's something different...

Replying to: 73shark (Jul 19, 2007 4:33 pm) Unfortunately, this is a potential fix for the autofolding mirrors which I don't have... Also, that fix doesn't even work on all of the '07s   "Replying to: gfraigun (Jul 13, 2007 3:07 pm)   "and just recently the driver side view mirror vibrates heavily when I'm driving on the freeway.. (can't see anything through it)"    Try retracting and extending the mirrors three times. It worked on my wife's 04 Tahoe. "

Can anyone help me on which roof top cargo bags to buy. Replies to this message: 73shark (Jul 20, 2007 7:42 pm) u045777 (Jul 21, 2007 12:12 am) ahightower (Jul 21, 2007 6:29 pm)

Replying to: rjt427 (Jul 20, 2007 6:51 pm) Personally I'd stick to hard shell carriers as the bag type will mar the paint. Replies to this message: u045777 (Jul 21, 2007 12:12 am) ahightower (Jul 21, 2007 6:29 pm)

Replying to: 73shark (Jul 20, 2007 7:42 pm) Look into a hitch cargo carrier (As long as your suv has a hitch reciever). It's cheaper and easier to use. They hold up to 500lbs+ and since it is behind the vehicle it won't reduce your mpg's like a roof mounted carrier. It will pay for itself in the gas you will save it you intend to frive long distances at highway speeds!   http://www.target.com/gp/detail.html/ref=bxgy_cc_img_b_13416871/601-5552717-2689- 713?asin=B0000AVW1G   http://www.drawtite-hitches.com/cargo_carriers/cargo-carrier-class-3-4.htm Replies to this message: ahightower (Jul 21, 2007 6:29 pm)

Replying to: gfraigun (Jul 20, 2007 11:21 am) Yep, an old nav database will normally work just fine. It just depends on where you live OR plan on driving too. I have a portable Nav system (Tom Tom) for my wife's car and also use when we fly some where. Last November when we were out in Southern California in the Anaheim/Disneyland area, they were doing some major roadwork (new overpasses/exiting changes, etc.) which had us going every which-way. So you may be just fine with an old database where you are, but if you plan on doing some major traveling in unfamiliar territory, I'd get an update or be prepared for some instructions that may not be appropriate anymore.

Replying to: u045777 (Jul 21, 2007 12:12 am) Ditto. A receiver hitch-mounted carrier is a great way to go, if you aren't already towing something back there. I have a friend who swore his mileage was not affected by a bag on top, but I still think the hitch platform type is easier to deal with. In fact, the extra load on the back of my Yukon XL results in a very smooth and comfortable ride. The rear end didn't sag at all, these trucks are definitely capable of carrying the extra weight. If you don't stack stuff too high, you can open the rear hatch without having to unload. I got mine at Cabela's, Hitch-Haul brand, $60.
#2681 of 3125 Re: Thoughts on my new LTZ Tahoe [gregeas] by timd32 Jul 22, 2007 (4:12 am)
Replying to: gregeas (Jun 07, 2007 11:03 am) got my tahoe in june after 400mi the DIC is all scrambled and the letters are all messed up. They ordered a new cluster which just came in have not had a chance to get it back to get that installed.   in the meantime I went on a extended road trip for work and the thing sat in the driveway, I went to get in it to go for a ride and the battery is now dead. There was nothing left on like lights or acc plugged in to the outlets. Guess I will find out how good the roadside assistance is today.   busted out my Fluke 189 and it is 1.84v that thing is really dead not just 8-10v so I hope they can find it. I plan on leaving it there for a few days while I go on another work trip. Replies to this message: dmyer3 (Jul 23, 2007 4:02 pm)
#2682 of 3125 2007 Tahoe Navigation System Question by wolfpack1996 Jul 23, 2007 (1:41 pm)
Does anyone know how to change the navigation system display to show arrival time instead of estimated time remaining to final destination? Page 21 of the navigation system supplement seems to indicate that this can be changed, but it doesn't tell you how to change it. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks - Michael
