DAILY DRIVING WIFES 220K MILE LIFTED TAHOE! | WHAT'S IT LIKE? |

In todays video we do a overview of what it has been like driving my wife's lifted 2012 tahoe!!!

[@RayShort-kt1mx]

Proud owner of a 2007 Tahoe with the original 5.3 that has not been DOD deleted yet, new trans @ 223,000 miles. I absolutely love my Tahoe.

[@kennethmoyer1980]

You can't beat it!! They are great SUVs that generation of Tahoe and Yukon. Original motor and transmission and still going strong. The build looks absolutely amazing and love the lift and powder coating 🍻

[@rmoneyrmoney6612]

I have a 2007 tahoe and it’s lifted and I absolutely love it, drives amazing and aside from a small oil leak I have had absolutely zero issues

[@macz1proent.982]

Rear main seal ?

[@franciscosaiz87]

2007 Tahoe LT here still running great!!!original 5.3 engine I did have the tranny rebuilt went out 2 years ago but 14 yr old transmission previously can’t complain!!!

[@treyhardy6928]

Try the wheel speed sensors first it’s cheap and easy. If that don’t fix it tune it out. I had my stabilitrac tuned out completely with hp tuners. Fixed the hard shift issue I had when the abs and traction light would come on. Tune woke it up tremendously and helped with future mods like rear o2 sensor delete and others along with tranny shift points rev limiter and all that. Mines hitting over 350,000 now with the 8” on 24x14 and 35/15.50s

2013 Tahoe here, 268k rented a uhaul car trailer,drove 150 miles picked up a 94 3000gt and drove 150 miles back and this Tahoe is a beast! No problems at all.

[@Sosasipthemost]

I have a 5.3 suburban dropped on 26s and daily it and love it. I’ll never get another suv

[@masonmorrell1917]

Love the videos. Earl was my favorite. Baby squat is a really close second💯

[@anthonycress327]

I've had a 02 and currently have a 07 Tahoe love both trucks. I will say this both generations have there pros and cons as far as which dose what better in different areas. Of power comfort etc but at the end of the day i would still recommend either or to anybody

[@driddick80]

Absolutely agree, bought a nice 2011 Silverado Lt almost a year ago, only had 97k miles on it, put a leveling kit and some 33’s with some true dual catbacks and it’s perfect, the interior is absolutely FLAWLESS, especially considering it’s a 12 year old truck, minor surface rust on the frame but that’s nothing, was an absolute steal of a deal and I absolutely love this generation, super underrated imo

[@blaine5522]

does your truck ride i guess you would say pretty stiff? i’ve got a 2011 crew cab and i had a yukon before. mine rides great but any imperfections in the road feel like a brick. curious if mines the only one

[@driddick80]

@@blaine5522 nah man, honestly one of the best driving and riding vehicles I’ve ever owned, even after putting some trail grapplers on it, still drives amazing, barely and steering wheel adjustment needed while driving and rides smooth as hell

[@mrrr407]

Simple man just like me

[@ghostdogsherron6974]

Thank you this is very helpful..... . I had mine for about a month and a week now and I love it the wife is very very happy.....👻

[@jasonzilka8565]

I had a Yukon and loved that truck. Rode nice and very comfortable, good power and only downside was no bed to put stuff.

[@TheAries323]

Cool video! Just got a 2018 Yukon Denali and am inheriting a 2002 Yukon with 194,00 on it. To help with the ⛽️ I’ve started putting all my gas cans in the plastic boats you get from Sam’s or Costco that your paper towels or toilet paper comes in. Since doing that I don’t smell the gas AT ALL! I even started leaving them in the bags inside the garage and now my garage no longer smells like gas all the time! Hope that helps! 😎😇👌🏾 P.S. Same with my trimmers I put the engine and heads in the bags and cleanup afterward is now nonexistent!

[@jpittman18]

I have a 2011 Tahoe. The stabilitrack/Traction control didn’t go away until I put a new engine and transmission in it.

[@bobbyamandaflores4470]

Ol wilsonville I thought I recognized the scenery

[@jayjordansr695]

Still driving my 2013 Tahoe with 196k miles. I’m thinking I might get a small loan and just fix it up a little with a new used engine and trans. Love my little suv.

[@scottyp3357]

Got a 2009 Chevy Silverado with 260k! Same power train as your Tahoe and original everything. Only light on dash is tpms and airbag been a great truck!

[@The-Bryant-Way]

Man off subject question from vehicles, are you a church goer? I seen you said “full church crowd” just wondering. Would be cool to know what you stand for. God is good all the time brother and you are very blessed my friend.

[@kennethmoyer1980]

You can get the factory leather seat skins for driver's seat and also for center console and it will be like new again.

[@mrhighway]

I got one same as your lifted too with 313,000 miles best vehicle i ever owned.

[@rtcturnemup7028]

The way you’re describing it sounds just like my 09 impala SS.i literally have to wait 5-10 mins after I start the car otherwise it will drive crazy and real funky

[@brandonwilliams567]

The only complaint I have with the suburban and Tahoe are the gears and seats! Love our suburban though!

[@jacobpugh6615]

My Silverado has both of those lights on too with the same notifications when you turn on the key. When I got it fixed a little over four years ago, I found out it was my ABS control module. It just came back on last month and the only reason I haven’t fixed it is because it seems to require a diagnostic tool to recalibrate/bleed the system from my research so you’re probably gonna have to take it to a shop. Hope this helps✌️

[@kylehereygers83]

One of the best looking tahoes on KZbin 🙌👍

[@andrewhamel15]

I kinda had a gmt800 Tahoe before I had my license did a lot of my driving hours in it but got rid of it like 6 months before I got my license and I didn’t mind it I really didn’t like the body roll and that was about it but the truck I have now is definitely better

[@Rich-cp4wo]

Nobody has ever overlooked that gen of tahoes dude. I recommended a tahoe a long time ago, dont know why you wouldnt like them... they are amazing

[@philvictor5537]

I love my 2012 z71 Tahoe lt all black

[@biggbee3952]

Try on top of the frame by the top of rear shocks on both sides. There is a sensor there that comes loose when changing shocks. (Due to tight fit and blind spot) click back together and stabilitrac/traction should be gone. Good luck.

[@Wicked_RotF30]

Should re-gear when adding much bigger tires. I’m putting 37s on my Yukon. My GMT800 Suburban will only get the same size that comes on new 4x4 Superduty(285/75) 33” tires.

[@Thomaslowmaster91297]

!!! Have you pulled the abs/speed sensors out? There's two in the rear! You might having metal shavings on it bc it's magnetic. Just wipe them off and codes should clear after a few miles!!

[@holcombm6]

Steering wheel position sensor is probably bad. Test it by starting it up and turn the wheel without moving.

[@shreksswamp918]

Until am/fm malfunctions and your lifters turn sideways and bend your cam. I just had to dod delete and completely rebuild my top end on mine i am at 220k as well.

[@customcutscentral5658]

Main differences I notice between this and my 07 Yukon Xl Denali are: Automatic air ride suspension Heated windshield wipers Control switches for the folding rear seats are right next to the sunroof switches Memory seats for passenger and driver Cracked to hell dashboard 🤣

[@tylerdavis2145]

I got a fully loaded '11 tahoe ltz with all of the issues you have except the door problem. 217k miles

[@nbsbryant85]

have u tried changing the abs wheel speed sensors i had a 2010 cadillac and i changed then out and it was fixed it can be the issue not to expensive so i would say give it a try

[@StraightRazWhor]

What’s really impressive is the amazing condition of those seats. I’ve worn out GM “leather” after 75k, granted I’m missing a right leg a tend to slide into the seat rather than plop. I’m down to the foam on my 2012 rn, 180k 😔 your wife must weigh nothing and glide over them mfers. Looking good for the high mileage man, even the engine bay.

[@jesusfonseca9364]

Plz install a corvette servo in your trans increase pressure for bans 2 and 3

[@JSSY80Randovids]

Love your vids....maybe next truck could be a dodge...many of us have one and would love to see what you would do to one

[@michaelanderson5229]

I wouldn't mind a Tahoe.

[@gradysweet9903]

I have a 2012 sierra with 195 on it and I have the same traction control and stabilitrack issue, I’m pretty sure it’s just the steering wheel position sensor

[@philvictor5537]

The main bad of the 07 to 13 is the recession and auto maker buy out that happened in 08

[@thefordshopyard5348]

Chase I'll be honest man, I Love It, Not a fan of lifting and squatting or Color Matching or Debadging. But I Don't Judge. I honestly Prefer Keeping All Of My Vehicles Stock but that's just me. Love Your Videos and I Think you're a Cool Guy, Would Like To Get To meet you in person someday. Also I have a 2001 Ford F150 xlt supercrew 4.6 Almost the same color as Larry 335k miles on it all original. Would like to put in some LED Headlight Bulbs and was Wondering The Exact Brand Bulbs you have in Larry and are they pop in pop out or do you have to do any adjustments to the Bulbs Themselves thanks.

[@gingerstudios5221]

I’m pretty sure lasfit is what he runs in everything. I also run lasfit in everything i have and theyre awesome bulbs

[@Alyzahpeaco]

Try mass airflow sensor for that stability link light showing

[@PaytonWoodard-im4cs]

Keep up the good work👍.

[@Shallowballow]

Love gmt900 fav gen of tahoe

[@victorguijon1931]

You get better mpg compared to my 98 ford Explorer I get 12 and it’s stock everything besides exhaust

[@richardborza5825]

i have the 2012... I love it and it is in great shape at 170k. did you change the gears and if so what did you put in? 4.56 or 4.88's?

[@guybelden5232]

Might be crankshaft position sensor.

[@ColEHtater]

Blackbear Tuning will will wake the truck up.

[@eltenjamar291]

200k+ miles is still a baby for chevy

[@brandonwilliams567]

Is the stability control because of the lift? No more auto ride? Mine did that after the lift.

[@Back_door_bandit_98]

Do a Avalanche build. Cat eye front end not the plastic one.

[@davewalter66]

I always wanted a Suburban but always had a pickup

[@allenjohnson2014]

I love my 08 Denali Sierra

[@camaintloud7580]

Put some chrome Cadillac roof racks on it

[@that94singlecab77]

I'm going to go look at one tom😮

[@rhondadrew3096]

Get a 2005 6.0 powerstroke turbo

[@The_nitrous_Outlaww]

Looks like LTZ trim

[@Back_door_bandit_98]

It’s the AFM lifters that people don’t like that’s why I personally have never owned one.

[@potlickerhound7262]

how did this tahoe make it to 220k with the active fuel management sys?

[@lontheriot9892]

I have a 2008 Silverado with 200,000 with no problems

[@judeaucoin5028]

End of the day, it was only a *minority* of trucks with issues. The majority of these GMT900’s are typical American small block mileage champs, there’s just so many of them that the affected group is sizeable.

[@judeaucoin5028]

My 2011 Sierra drives like new at 121k (minor front suspension maintenance), but the slushy transmission is annoying in stop & go and the 5.3 is no faster than my 1998 F150 w the 2V 5.4 triton.

[@ramaswamynarayanaswamy4806]

@@judeaucoin5028 Those 2V 5.4s are the ONLY reliable 5.4s actually made. The 4.6L V8 is slightly more reliable, but not by much.

[@Thomas.cox4]

what’s the lift set up? how’d you get it leaning?

[@chrisroberts1155]

I have a driver side seat bottom I can give you I sold my Tahoe so it’s just laying around, I think I’m somewhat local to you

[@thelegacy9019]

None of these trucks have cooled seats im pretty sure. I have an ltz and it only has heated seats

[@rtcturnemup7028]

The Yukon( Denali) and Escalade ( all trims ) has it. I seen this Tahoe with vent seats but it’s rare just like the Tahoe coming with a 6.2

[@patrickrhodes150]

What exhaust do you have?

[@tombrown6840]

24x12 or 22x12 on ole Betty?

[@Kqrsen]

When’s big Betty getting wheel lights 🤷‍♂️

[@chevyLS.R]

New exhaust

[@stickdog1230]

The afm is why people don’t like them on top the 4l60

[@ramaswamynarayanaswamy4806]

The system needs good maintenance and most people either overextend the oil changes or abuse them, which is what causes issues with the lifters.

[@gagewhite5505]

What wheels are those

[@paulcondie2520]

With the new bed sizes of the newer and new trucks they are just a glorified SUV! Lol Shit my daily is a ranger has a 7ft bed.

[@MrPAULONEAL]

All that gas shouldn't be in the passenger compartment.

[@MrPAULONEAL]

It needs floorboards or steps.

[@evandoherty770]

u should get a 15-20 yukon for urself
