Been watching it since I was a kid.

I loved my 99 Tahoe. White with tan painted bottom and tan leather seats. Rode very smooth and never gave me any issues. Best truck I've owned. Wish they still made them like that.

I love the Motorweek way of reviewing cars. They are straight, highlighting the important features very objective and also introduce the cars in a very professional way. Congratulations John Davis! You and your crew are the best! I loved the new Suburban/Tahoe.

My 99 tahoe 4x4 tahoe with pretty much mid level trim" pretty much cd player and rear air was the only mentionable added options i could find other than Z71 package", was around 33k according to the window sticker. Adjusted for inflation that's right under 50 k today. So over 20 years it hasn't gone too far up in price surprisingly. Still seems like a lot of money though.

That 7.1sec to 60 has gotta be the slowest times I've ever seen from an L87 V8. The old Tahoe RST ran to 60 in 5.7secs, and the old Escalade in 5.9secs. This Tahoe weighs nearly the same as the old model, despite being larger. Was it super hot out, MW? Something just seems off. Also of note, premium fuel is "recommended", not required. It is best used in towing and for max performance. Otherwise, great review Motorweek. As John said, it is "FULL FRAMED AND UNASHAMED"!!😊

I'm willing to bet more body-on-frames would sell if they cost less than they do. Plenty of GM's full-size SUVs make it out into the market in spite of their prices, so imagine it if these things were reasonably stickered. Sure, there's bound to be lots of people who will just like the crossover formula better, but if there were more, and more reasonably priced body-on-frames out there, it might surprise us how many more people like 'em that way.

$70k???

The Chevrolet Tahoe and Suburban, the GMC Yukon and Yukon XL, and the Cadillac Escalade account for 50% of all large SUV sales in the US. GM makes 340,000 of them every year and exports about 80,000 to 31 countries. They’re made in GM’s plant in Arlington, Texas, which is said to be the most profitable assembly plant in the world. We estimate they generate $20 billion in revenue for GM and about $4 billion in profits. Autoline Daily.

Simple and very reliable truck. I'd never buy this one. GM spoiled it really bad. Same with Silverado and Tahoe. $70K... In 5 years they'll lose about $25K for nothing. Not to mention new ones are mechanic's attention demanding. Now they require premium gas. Premium gas - 2022 really??? MPG is still not great. For over 22 years they just go only 2-3 miles further on one gallon - so much for improvements. Manufacturers just wanna pull more money out you pockets.

That machine is a piece of shoe until it has been out in the market for few years and the independent technicians have had time to take it apart and show the world that is still a bipped out product or not Billionaire dillweeds that own the damn company who cash out what little bit of quality it originally had.

71k for an interior that's straight up trash🗑️

I hate the new Tahoe and Suburban’s styling. The rear end now looks like a Ford Expedition, all flat assed and the stupid chrome strip across the tailgate looks terrible. GM’s infotainment is horrible too, and the analog gauges look like they belong in 2005. The center stack just looks so cheap. For the kind of money one of these things costs, I would be going for an Audi Q7, BMW X5 or X7, or Mercedes-Benz GLE/GLS. At least all of those vehicles actually look decent outside, have more efficient and powerful engine options and don’t look like they share their interior parts with a $29,000 base model Chevy Silverado 1500 work truck.
