  1. Unfortunately that is why the GMC is a premium marketed brand above Chevrolet. They diverge more and more every refresh cycle. Myself, I traded my suburban for a Yukon, and it’s true. GMC has better sound deadening, touchable interior parts, and softer seats. I wouldn’t have believed it before until owning both versions of the K2 platform in different brands.

  2. The factory HUD in my Suburban is nearly impossible to see with polarized glasses. I have a pair of non-polarized prescription sunglasses and I can see the HUD perfect with them. I think most higher end cars have polarized windshields in them so I guess no harm to wear non-polarized glasses if you are UV sensitive. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. Is the ghost image the reason for a special coated windshield for HUD models? Just a thought. There had to be a reason for a different windshield with HUD. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  4. If you have factory nav, you will always have it. You have to pay GM to update it, and if you want current traffic and road construction info you have to subscribe to XM NavTraffic. Otherwise you will always have the map version navigation from time of purchase if you have factory Nav. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  5. I have factory HUD in my suburban and it requires a special windshield if I need to replace it. No idea of price or what is so special, but sure it has a special coating to provide clear reflection without any "double vision" effect. Have to say, I love the HUD. Wish I had it in my Silverado, so interested in how this project comes along. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. My LTZ suburban has factory HID. Aside from pulling a bulb (which is a bit difficult) You should be able to tell by watching the lights turn on. LEDs will be instantly bright, HID will take a brief second to come to full brightness. You also should be able to hear a faint buzzing noise coming from the transformers as the HID's run on high voltage and I believe it's AC. With the engine off and lights on in my suburban it sounds like you are listening to an old fluorescent light buzzing if you stand up front by the lights. I don't think the LED lights would make any noise unless they are fan cooled. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. That's a '17! Did they add some changes from 16 like the Tahoe/Suburban? Sent from my iPhone 6s Plus using Tapatalk
  8. Stock, delivery day! Here is after a few add-ons: 2015 2LZ. Summit White, ebony interior with Z71 badging (no wood grain!), RSE and Nav. Checked every box except 6.2... Buyers remorse on that, but MSRP was already $55K - rediculous-right?Intended to buy high country 3LZ, but my wife was thoroughly turned off on the saddle interior. Don't care for it much myself don't like the HC rims either!!! Got this guy as s year end deal so didn't have any 6.2's in the area with RSE which I wanted for trips with the offspring. Added CK156 22" chrome wheels, Putco Locker Rails, Larado tonneau cover, GM splash guards, body color grille, 6,000k HID low beams and fogs (made a HUGE difference in lighting) and GM accessory step bars. Plan to Diablo tune to wake this girl up a bit off the line (runs great at 3,000 rpm, but damn torque mngmt is neutering this rig off the line! Also want to body color headlight bezels and both bumpers - love the mono white look. Adding s supercharger isn't far out of the realm too, but that's a fat investment! Great looking trucks all! -Shawn Sent from my iPhone 6s Plus using Tapatalk
