"There are trucks with well engineered IRS that have plenty of wheel travel -- Hummer H1, Range Rover, LR3, etc." All of which cost much much more than the Tahoe. IRS reduces wheel travel, size of suspension components, screws up placement of gas tank, and a whole slew of other problems. It doesn't take a lot of common sense to realize that IRS will reduce other features. If you want IRS so much, go buy a minivan. |

Motorweek reviewed the new Tahoe today and said it might the vehicle that saves the company. Kinda bold statement, but nonetheless they loved the design. The liked the new exterior and loved the new interior saying it was a major step in the right direction for GM. One thing they really liked was the turning radius, they said it was nothing short of amazing for a vehicle its size. Anyone try this? hey BIGJON101...Did you order yours so you could get exactly what you wanted? Or did the dealer not have any in stock? just curious, because the dealers around me seem to have at least 8 or 9 in stock, each. Let us know how you like it when you get it! |

Replying to: cmyers300m (Feb 18, 2006 8:03 pm) http://www.mpt.org/motorweek/reviews/rt2524b.shtml They give the ride a lot of cudos, like most people here. I just don't think you've evaluated the Tahoe until you drive it. And, drive it more than just around the block. I've test driven one for about 1 hour, over any type of road I could find, and was amazed at the new ride abilities. They also re-itterated the reason for no fold down rear seat. Loss of room. The Tahoe is a shorter vehicle that most competitors (check wheel base.) Chevy states the Suburban is why, if you need more room, get that. So, to get the most room, no fold in floor seats. Great move I think. I'm still debating on getting the 3rd seat for myself. Probably will, though it will spend most of it's life in the garage. Thanks cmyers300m!
