2007 and newer Chevrolet Tahoe and GMC Yukon

I've had two GM vehicles now with the 4l60e in them. The first was a 2003 Trailblazer, and now my 2004 Silverado. I traded the Trailblazer for the Silverado before it hit 20k miles, mostly because I needed to haul stuff, including stinking garbage, frequently, and hated tearing up the interior of my vehicle and dealing with the long term smell. I didn't have any problems with the transmission in it during the time I owned it. (Actually quite enjoyed owning that particular vehicle, and would've kept it if not for the reason above)
 
On to the Silverado- so far no real issues, though it has slipped during takeoff one time. That is, I gave it gas and it acted as if it was in 4Lo, engine revved much higher than usual and it moved forward, just at a MUCH slower speed than normal. I let off the gas for a second, then reapplied throttle and everything acted normally. It had over 21k before I experienced this, and it hasn't ever repeated that. No other problems except the need to burp the coolant system (gonna do that this weekend) to get rid of the gurgling noise under my dash.
 
Anyway, I sure hope all the real trans issues have been addressed by design updates, so that the 2007 Avalanche I've got on order doesn't cause me troubles in this area. But if anything happens, I was the one decided to be the guinea pig for the first model year of the from-scratch redesign.

It doesn't strike me as an ad for Honda in any way. It looks very much like the grill guards I see on late model Avalanches right now though.

I agree. I just hadn't bothered to post why I thought they weren't including them. But the Tahoes are like the Trailblazers in that they come with the integrated rear hitch on all of them.
