Tahoe RST . Basically the 6.2 from the Denali, the new 10L80, and some dress up pieces.

Oh yeah. I’d drive the hell out of that.
Too bad I won’t be able to afford it.

I’d guess this would msrp north of 55k

I’d guess it’ll land closer to 70k. A well-optioned Premier (did they get rid of LTZ?) easily crests 70 grand.

Yeah, 70k would be my SWAG. Would be a sweet ride, but that’s too rich for me—

Here we go again, they did this before with the 6.2 and 6L80e in 2010 (I think).
“Oh, you want a bigger engine and better transmission for your Tahoe? Well here you go! What? No, you can’t have the Towing or Off-Road package with the bigger engine, that would be ridiculous! Next you’re gonna tell me you want a Duramax in the 2500 Suburban!! Ha!”

Now lower it a few inches and you have a winner. You know nobody’s going to be taking it off road anyway.
... I mean obviously aside from whoever took that promo shot. But even my Civic can handle that kind of “off roading.”

I’d take the RST internals with this suspension/wheel/tire setup.

Yeah. I really prefer buying new, but a new Tahoe isn’t ever going to happen for me.

Considering the absolute cheapest no option 2wd cloth seat Tahoe you can get stickers for $48,500, I’d be shocked if you could get this for under $65k ... and not at all shocked if it was $80k.

But, the Suburban is the one that needs the extra beef.
Also, too bad these are so expensive. I’d easily trade in my minivan for a Suburban, especially one with the 6.2 V8.

Kinda weird none of the big American three have made a X5M, SQ7 or GLE63 competitor yet.

What about the Grand Cherokee SRT8?

My only issue with the current Suburbans is the headlights. I really like how the whole truck looks, except for those bizarre headlights.

...and the Magnetic Ride Control suspension, and optionally big ass brakes/Borla exhaust.
That’s very interesting. I wouldn’t buy it, but it’s interesting.

True, though for the same price as the Chevy I’d go for a Land Cruiser, X5, XC90 etc.
But as far as Tahoes go, this dechromed one with the V8 seems pretty sweet. Not my thing, but I see why you like it.

Chevy has always done such a nice job on their SUVs again and again. Especially the last 2 gens and even some of the later GMT800 have aged so well.

It will get stuck in the deep snow here and I will drive by and laugh....whats the point of these things? Put a plow in the front and maybe it’s useful.
