Cool video. How many miles and gasoline gallons was this for the Suburban?

I'm building a 04 z71. Love them

Yep, I have a 2001 Yukon Xl and these things are as capable as the best of them and it still runs like new with 140k miles on it. And the long versions have so much storage space even with the 3rd row seats in place. I take mine in the snow, sand and the mountains.

@@KnightDriveTV I actually have two GMT 800 tahoes, one is a '06 Z71 even. I can't imagine taking it where I go off-road. Like you guys say in the video, you just need to know where their limits are.

Awesome video bro! Amazing how capable those boats are! Also, shout out to Josh’s chest holster!

hello there MA-MAAA...

I'm building an 02 model. 5.3 half ton

Really cool seeing you hanging out with the family. I have a teenage girl I travel with too.

That was really cool.

Loving the content! I’m building an 02 Tahoe, just took it on a trail for the first time to test the waters & had a lot of fun. It’s hard to find Tahoe off road content like this, so I’m excited to see what you do with the build!

Lots more coming ahead. Atomic Fab coilovers coming shortly. Josh roller painted the suburban; the outcome is ahead. We have some lighting things coming, and a Big Rig Las Vegas trip I'm planning of a bunch of full size stuff on the trail. I also have some Dream Racing content starting; Lambo's, Corvettes, NSX's...all kinds of goods.

Dude - I'm totally taking my Jeeps up there, especially when it snows! I love Josh's chest-rig setup too.

I driven my 06 Short wheel base yukon 4x4 through some pretty rough trails. It has the 5.3 with the 4.10 and g80 locker. I've turned the torsion bars to level the front and have 33" tires on it. Does well enough for me.

I'm going to do that trail soon with my Yukon

This looks like a blast! I love seeing these big 800s out on the trail. Definitely want to pick me up one of these, they're just tough to find in decent shape here in New England.

@@KnightDriveTV yeah, I definitely think that's the way to go. I was just actually looking at San Diego Craigslist last night, I have some friends out that way, but they seem to be fairly expensive in CA.

Suburban and Tahoe have the same motor? Power difference if both 5.3s? Which do you like more?

@KnightDriveTV

2 жыл бұрын

Yeah, they're both 1500's with 5.3's. I'm on stock gears and a bigger tire, he weighs more...they're pretty dead even. My tire has more rolling friction and wind resistance so once we get up to speed he pulls ever so slightly but...both stock altogether and I'll be adding headers, etc next to get some more torque.

I need to do a build video for my 2001 tahoe. I use it on my channel quite a bit. I wanted more torque so I built a 6.0L and swapped engine then hopped up a 4l60e and swapped that. It is a BEAST off road in that it pulls up ANYTHING with ease. I have been probably 20,000 miles on trails. Only complaint is truck is a hair big other than that it is awesome. I would be half tempted to build a zr2 s10 blazer. I think that with my drive train would be ultimate.

who knows the model ranges that are capable of putting the big tow mirrors on the tahoe, im finally getting another one and will be doing a little bit of this type of driving. and what model radio is that to fir in the tahoe cubby hole

I had a 2004 tahoe 5.3 and sold it at 370 000km got a 2004 blazer now all done out. Not as heavy duty or reliable..until.you fix the hickups but its a bit more maneuverable And better clearance. But damn do I miss the tahoe. Yours is awesome

Whats up brotha! Im new to the whole overlanding lifestyle & im just wondering how do YOU look up trails?

I use a mix of methods. Locally, I tended to use googlemaps and satellite view at first. I often would seek put trails through local offroad groups also. There are several.apps for trails but some of them are just damn bulky to sort through because they show hiking trails, ohv trails, vehicle trails, etc. I think fb groups and googlemaps has always served best.

PEOPLE DONT REALIZE CHEVY SUBURBANS DO VERY WELL OFF ROAD. A LOT OF PEOPLE LOOK WRITE PASS THEM AN DONT NO THEY WERE ONE OF THE TOP OFF ROAD SUV. A LOT OF PEOPLE THINK OFF ROADING IS WHAT YOUR DOING AN ROCK CRAWLING. THE SUBURBAN AT ONE TIME WAS KING OF THE MUD HOLES, AN PRETTY MUCH GOING OFF ROAD LIKE YOU SEE PEOPLE DO IN OTHER COUNTRIES JUST TO GO HOME. NOTHING ELSE WAS MORE MODIFIABLE THAN AN CHEVY TRUCK OR SUV JUST USING FACTORY PARTS OR SWAPPING PARTS FROM ONE TRUCK TO ANOTHER. MOVE THIS OVER MOVE THAT OVER AN IT FIT. NOW THE SUBURBAN AN TAHOE ARE WAY TO BIG THEY WANT TO COME OUT WITH AN OFF ROAD PACKAGE. IM GLAD TO SEE SOMEONE LETTING PEOPLE NO CHEVY SUV ARE OFF ROAD CAPABLE WITH JUST A LITTLE BIT OF LIFT. BESIDES THERE EVERY WERE AN THERE CHEAP.

The boy isn't an off roader by any means. He had just moved here. To be fair, the videos never do the inclines any justice, no matter how you shoot it. On video that looks like a baby hill, but in person, for a top heavy tahoe with a roof tent, it was steep steep. I have climbed it harder, but with Lace and the boy...just isn't worth pushin their boundaries, because they wont off road with me if I do...lol.
