Has anyone here added cargo tie-down points to their vehicle? If so, what did you use? . My 4runner had 4 tie downs in the cargo compartment and I could use an additional two points where the seats anchored to the body when the seats were flipped down, but my new-to-me GMT-800 Suburban only...

. This is going to be a short trip report but if anyone has questions, feel free to ask. . Our Facebook camping group, Colorado Teardrops and Tiny Trailer Campers (Colorado Campers for short) had our 2nd annual "Reef Madness" camping trip at Capitol Reef in October (Columbus Day weekend.)...

Just wanted to get a rough survey of those who have GMT800/NBS Chevy/GMC trucks (2000-2006 models, may be 2007 for some pickups): . How "bright" is your Driver Information Center (DIC) display? I'm just wondering if there may be something wrong with mine. Now, the PRND321 display is very...

Anyone else with a GMT 800 (AKA "NBS", 2000 - 2006 full size Chevy/GMC) running a Scangauge II and showing transmission temps? . I'm Trying to install the Scangauge II on my '04 Suburban LT after getting it back from Linear Logic. Having a little difficulty getting it to read TFT...

Mine is for sale. $50 "Expo Special" price. Location is Englewood, you come and pick it up. I'll help you install it (it's easy, just need to remove your seat bottom cushions.)...

Looking for input from Scangauge experienced folks here... . My Scangauge was working fine on my 4runner. Took it off when I sold the 4runner and plugged it into my new-to-me '04 Suburban. Earlier in the week I had plugged it in without installing it just to see if it worked and it did. I...

Any reason to prefer the Optima? Both are AGM batteries, CCA are close (740/925 for the Sears and 800/1000 for the Red Top.) . Wife has a red top in her YJ and it's been darn near indestructible. Even survived a failed alternator. Completely discharged, I then followed a recommended...

....From the Toyota section but not from ExPo! :sombrero: . Sold the 4runner last week and bought a new Suburban yesterday. . Wanted to post this to let folks know I have some items for sale: Seat covers, Rola rack lowering kit and a sleeping platform complete with drawers. All are posted...

Well, I did it - sold the 4runner on Tuesday. . And now I seem to have a hard time finding a Burb or XL with what I'm looking for. Must have seen a dozen of them over the past few months but now, they're as rare as hens teeth. . So if anyone in the Denver or CO Front Range area knows of an...

I've never owned a vehicle with leather seats but there's a good chance my next vehicle will have them. . I get the impression that leather is more durable and also more resistant to spills, etc, if only because it's less permeable than cloth. Is that right? Is it easier to clean? . What...

Just wondering if I could somehow post or import a spreadsheet. . My research of the last few months on full sized SUVs had me getting dizzy and I finally figured I needed a simple way to display the information that was important to me so I could compare side by side. So I channeled my inner...

I've never really been a fan of the "barn doors" or "cargo doors" (on the old FJ40 they were often called "ambulance doors") on the Tahoe and Suburban but there are a lot of people that seem to like them. . Seems to me one of the advantages ought to be the ability to mount the spare tire or...

(Xposted from the Tahoe/Yukon forum, no replies on that one yet) . OK so I'm still trolling Craigslist and other sites "window shopping" for trucks (I say window shopping because I can't really seriously shop until I sell my 4runner and that won't be until next year.) . But I came across an...

Looking for some info on a 2000 - 2006 Tahoe. . Wondering if a Tahoe owner can do me a favor: I need to know how long the cargo area of a Tahoe is with the 2nd row seats folded and 3rd row seat removed. Can I get one of you to check that? And also how flat is the load deck with the seats...

I'm not sure if I should post this in the "fridge" section or the "power" section, although it's really more of a power issue.... . I've been using a 12v fridge for almost 3 years now. Current fridge is a Truckfridge TF-41/Indel-B Travelbox TB-41 (they're the same thing.) . Fridge works great...

So after our 5000+ mile road trip (and several shorter ones this year) with our new T@B trailer I've decided that as much as I like the 4runner, it's just not a suitable tow vehicle, so I'm going to put it up for sale probably some time after the camping season is over (which for us will the...

Couple of questions for the owners of GMT800 Suburbans or Tahoes: . First, How easy can the 2nd row seats be taken out? On my 4runner taking the seat bottom cushions out is a 5 minute job with a 14mm socket wrench. Want to know if it is possible to maximize storage this way. . Second, I...

OK, still doing research on my future full-sized-vehicle purchase, probably to happen next year... . Wait, first off, before I start, are there any good message boards out there for full size domestic brand vehicles, specifically Ford and Chevy/GM? I've searched but have only found a couple of...
