Adaptive Cruise hard to find

That's awesome! Yeah pretty much EVERY Suburban Premier in my neck of the woods has 22's. There was one identical to mine at the same dealership but 20's rather than the 22's. I'd have preferred that one, but the one with 20's had just been sold. So far I've been pleasantly surprised at how "good" the ride quality is with the 22's, and while it definitely has a mild case of the vibration/resonance issues, it's not bad at all and more than tolerable, and nice to know that just swapping the Bridgestones out for Michelins will probably do the trick. Mine is Pepperdust. Not my first choice exterior color but it works for me, but needed to have a non-black interior first, so had to be a little flexible somewhere. Congrats on the new ride!  

Thanks! Glad I'm not the only one who prioritizes interior over exterior color! That being said, I really didn't want red because I knew there'd be no shortage of "Here comes the fire truck" jokes made at my expense. Pepperdust is pretty nice, definitely gives off a "Cowboy Cadillac" vibe. 

 

Here are some shots of the interior and exterior:

Somebody in my neighborhood actually has a new RED Burb, and that's exactly what I think whenever I see it! LOL! I'm not too big on Pepperdust TBH, but correct that the exterior color had to end up falling into a don't really care category, just as long as it's not black or silver/grey, so Pepperdust it was. I hate the black interiors. Really like Cocoa/Dune. 

 

I came very close to buying a closeout 2018 Burb Premier at another dealership in Blue/Mahogany. It had the stuff I didn't want (power running boards, dvd/moonroof junk) and not the stuff I did (3.42 gears and Adaptive Cruise), but good lord at $14k off MSRP I could live with it! They jacked the price up by $3k as soon as I asked about it and then wouldn't honor the lower price, so I walked. Happy that I did! I like the one I got better.  

Pepperdust is a pretty classic Chevy color I think. Would have preferred a blue or white, but I'm sure it'll grow on me. I'm already liking that it seems to hide dirt pretty well.

I've driven aobut 6 GM vehicles with adaptive cruise, as well as two Ford products.  GM's was the smoothest at maintaining speed amongst vehicles ahead, and the "close" distance was not so tailgating like the Ford system was.  The Ford system at close range kept me 1 maybe 1 and a half car lengths behind the car in front, where the GM system has a better distance buffer.  The Ford system seemed rather jerky with its speed maintaining.

Have you tried Toyota's? I was pretty impressed with the system in the Land Cruiser.

That is one awesome combo right there! Class ride. Not your ordinary white with tan interior! This cocoa/ dark atmosphere is one of their nicest colors of late. Best of luck!

 

I installed this for protection and love it:

The fit is perfect and the floor mats come in cocoa color look great and work better.

Dose anyone know if Adaptive cruse control can be added to an already purchased ( only 2 weeks ago) 2020 Denali XL? We found one of the few remaining 2020 XL Denali's here in the Houston area, and was offered a good deal. The sales guy told me it was in there ( no window sticker available at the time) and once we sealed the deal and started to go over all the set ups, we discovered it only has the automatic breaking, at settable distances. I'm supposed its not in there, has almost every other option available.

 

I'm hoping its just a software update, or a add in module/sensor in the grill. I saw other vehicles that had it ( showed on window sticker) in there and the buttons on the steering wheel look exactly the same.

 

Anyone, who may know something about this, I would greatly appreciate.

 

Thanks you in advance, if anyone has any feedback.

I am pretty sure you have it, A Yukon with the Denali trim level i would be surprised if you dont. Have you tried to drive it with cruise on? It is nearly invisible when its on, GM does not call it out when it engages, only a green light with an extra mark on it. Check with your RPO codes, if you have it it will be listed. The QR placard is located on the drivers door pillar way way down near the bottom along with other info.

Thanks, Ill check.

This is what the symbol used to look like (2015+) but it may be different in 2020.  Anyway, the car is missing if you DON'T have ACC.  I thought my LTZ would have it but it does not, so just engage your cruise and see if the symbol is there.

Yes that is what I was trying to convey, thanks for the info.  The only issue i have with the adaptive is I would want to go back to regular cruise at my discretion. Sometimes when the front is blocked with snow, the system turns off but I would want regular to work depending on road conditions.
