2021 Chevy Tahoe Vs. Suburban Drag Race - What's The Quickest New Big Boy Chevy SUV? 

Those times are well off the tested times of the previous model which was in the 6.7 second range for 0-60. Probably not just due to elevation but test conditions. They are doing real world testing, where as these fast times are done in very ideal track conditions. However, the potential is there for much faster times.

Nope, that was awful because high hp were for towing, not for racing.

@@elgranfreezer9117 At sea level in proper conditions, they are pretty quick, something like 6.7 seconds. Most small sporty cars are around that range, that is respectable for a huge vehicle meant to two.

Not really. They’re actually quite slow especially for how large the engines are. A bmw X7 m50i is much faster than these and is still large and luxurious a long with something like a Range Rover SV autobiography

Bob Saget I know that’s what I thought. How do they manage to get such small members out of such huge engines

Yeah, but Tommy did say that he rode on the "short" school bus. (Indirectly).

Just started my channel where I take trucks into the Canadian mountains and bag on them. I just want to make people laugh.

Literally made me lol!

Lmaoooo

Yup that's how it seems lol

Beat me to it

I was about to make the same comment

Arman Kilbeck thank you

Does Sport Mode really make any difference at WOT? I don't think so.

@@jedironin380faster shift points

Good god I never realized how disorienting that can be when you are paying attention.

Yeah, I wish they would’ve kept it simple like the 2.8 though, the 3.0 looks like it’s pretty over engineered

It won’t change unless people stop financing and pay for their vehicle with cash, because then all of a sudden a lot of people won’t be able to buy a brand new car

Come on, it’s only an 8 year payment! You can afford that!

Did you miss the point where he mentioned it's no more expensive than the out going model. Silly guy 😜

The suburban is almost literally half the value of my home that is nuts for a depreciating asset. These prices can’t be sustained for much longer

@@samduran5180 Nobody pays MSRP. They added more features and more technology so of course the price will increase. You people have to stop bitching about it.

i saw a tahoe in person today... omg did the rear look like an accessibility van... terrible job GM.

Yep

Expedition with its Mickey Mouse engineering...

@@MrTaffiny1 yea lol!

Done already with GMC 6,2. Ford toasted it.

@@MrTaffiny1 yep, had an expedition EL as a rental when my pickup was getting some body work done and we took it on a trip to Louisiana instead of the wife's sequoia since the body shop paid for it. Needless to say it was garbage. Shocked the shIt out of me everytime I got out of the vehicle, couldn't fold the third row seats with the second row slid back unless the backrest was upright, an issue our sequoia didnt habe. The 10 speed hunted gears and when I went to pass a car on a 2 lane road I punched it, there was a delay, followed by a bang, a forward surge like I let off the gas and a bunch of clicking/grinding and all kinds of transmission warning messages coming up on the screen. I had to hot the brakes and get back behind the slow poke inwas trying to pass. Made us happy we got a sequoia. As far as fuel economy, the city mileage was actually pretty close, but on the highway it did do quite better than our sequoia. Liked the power but overall the sequoia was better.

Whats the percentage of the other companies who sell large SUV in the US?

Yup I think the 5.3 needs 400 and 6.2 needs 450.

Atleast the 6.2 still makes good numbers. The 5.7 in my ram felt kind of pokey compared to a Denali I test drove.

R2BA it makes good numbers but if your going to up the 5.3 there’s no reason to get the 6.2 if they are very close in hp/tq so you have to upgrade them both.

Kyle Burdick this is why i said both engines. As both engines have had same output since 2014 model year.

9663mu my last comment wasn’t directed at you, it was for R2BA

Does the expedition feel the quickest

Agreed, it does depend on the setup though, out of all the Tahoe packages the setup of the z71 Tahoe has the most going against the acceleration. The police package Tahoe has the same power numbers as the civilian model but is about a full 1-1.5 second quicker in the 0-60 due to the suspension and chassis setup.

That would be the way to go

Don’t know. You should ask them

But the best choice for fuel economy.

Not the PPVs though, they move a little differently

@@johnfilip3470 still lazy

@@stevenhanna6973 its a +2 ton suv, so you can't expect much. At that point just go buy a Trackhawk. But the 5.3 Tahoes move well considering the power to weight ratio. My ppv isn't speed gov. so from the factory it's already faster than the 6.2. Plus the 5.3s are easier to mod.

Unless you want to tow. The 5.3 tows more than the 6.2

The "old ass engines" are super reliable. Ill take them any day over some EcoBoost. Real trucks have pushrods.

@@andybub45 they used to be reliable when America was building them

Chevys do if you take care of them.

They're going to keep going up because people will pay for it.

@@Jackmerius_Tacktheretrix sad to be honest

Subjective...people like it. You don't. Deal with it and don't buy one.

@@MrTaffiny1 that was my opinion. i dont like it. apparently you do (bad taste). deal with it and stop trolling Karen. wear a mask

Yes

GAtlas05 yeah I watched the TFL Off-road they did on the Tahoe after I watched this one and they said that you could. That’s the motor I’d get if I were to purchase one myself. Thanks for answering my question tho👊🏼

@@chrismunsey3185 No problem! I agree, that thing is a powerhouse and it sounds better than the 5.3. I had an Escalade with the 6.2 and it beat quite a few quick cars on the streets.... Don't tell anyone :)

You cannot get the 6.2 in the Tahoe z71

CDB on the TFL OFF-ROAD channel about the Tahoe Z-71 they said that you could.

The European cars are tiny cars

Yes it does have air suspension

Truck engines are detuned a lot, since they're assumed to be under heavier loads, and aren't built for speed, but durability, etc.

More displacement (the 5.0 reading is the engine displacement in liters, just in case someones reading who does not know that), doesn't equal more horsepower (work the engine can do). Countless other factors that affect power come into play such as compression, air/fuel ratios, and weight. For example Ferrari has a V6 that is 3.9 L and makes 660 hp.

Because their made for towing and pushing a lot of weight that’s the same 5.3 that’s been in the Chevy Silverado since like 20 years it’s kinda like dodges 5.7

The 6.2 is detuned for obvious reasons tho they are for more day to day things not rly revved out like the 6.2 in the vette or camero so they probably have a weaker tune just because it’s not gonna be pushed like a vette or camero so they prefer it to last longer over just hp numbers

One of the things that really helps the 5.0 is the fact that is a DOHC engine. (Double Overhead Cam with 4 valves per cylinder vs the 2 valves per cylinder and push rods on the 5.3 and 6.2). This is why the Coyote can make equivalent or even more hp, even with less displacement and arguably has the best stock heads of any domestic mass produced engine right now. DOHC is especially advantageous when you add boost and running higher rpms. Push rod engines have their advantages also so not hating on them but I hope that answers your question. /watch?v=PXD_AvKbCMg Love this guy and that vid will help you understand the point I'm making.

They are no more expensive than the out going model 😉

And packaged just as poorly. GM leaves things out that you think you'd get at certain price points. For example, a $60k Silverado Trail Boss LT (which GM refers to as 2LT) that doesn't get GPS as an option.

@@domin8ss 🤔 are you sure about that, gps is an OnStar thing and all of them come equipped with OnStar

@@samduran5180 Yes. GM has 3 radio options in the Silverado right now. They are IOR, IOS, and IOT. IOT is the only one that has GPS. IOT radios are only available in LTZ and High Country. IOS was upgradeable to have navigation in 2019, but GM abandoned the software upgrade needed to be downloaded by a dealership after installing a SD card into the center console. The dealership 2 miles from my house is sitting on 3 SD cards they can't sell because they can't complete the upgrade. The OnStar navigation is not map based on the IOS radios. It tells you the direction to go and the distance until each step. GM is now relying on Android Auto and Apple CarPlay for the navigation in IOS radios. I don't know much about the IOR radios because I don't have one. The IOR radio is in the WT and has the smaller 7 inch screen. I do know it's not upgradeable without changing the whole unit. I hate Android Auto. I usually listen to music on my phone through my car speakers via Bluetooth and the Samsung Music app. Android Auto locks me out of the Samsung Music app, and forces me to use Google's music app. Google's music app is stuck on the same playlist I created in Samsung Music, and won't let me change it. It's very frustrating. Fortunately, I found a company in Colorado that has a solution using GM parts. Right now it's a $850 upgrade ($350 of which is refunded when you send in a core). With all that said, Google Maps looks great on the IOS screen, and some people have told me they prefer it over the GM navigation because of free map updates, Google constantly updates with traffic status, and Waze is now implemented into Google Maps.

Its called inflation.

8.73 sec 0-60 in normal elevation. That is super slow for 2021! Wow big disappointment

It's funny when import fan boys don't realize how much "American junk" is in their vehicle. Toyota and GM have been sharing parts and tech since the end of WW2. I could give you at least half a dozen examples without ever bringing up Geo or the Toyota Corolla.

American Junk? You're not very intelligent.

You can have your old outdated lx570.

Yes so much bad 0 to 60

Of course both tests were done with the six-speed available at the time..

That was the 6.2 l V8 with 403 HP and 417 foot pounds

With a curb weight about 5,700 lbs**

Sometimes just having to shift more decreases the 0 to 60 time.. for example. For a matter of time the Subaru WRX STI had a slower 0 to 60 time than just the WRX simply because the WRX had a 5-speed and the STI had a 6-speed

I certainly know a lot and I have a lot of experience with driving and testing cars.. even experience with camera work.. & being behind the camera.. "some say".. I'm a natural presenter.. God I wish I worked for you guys.... I'm also great at editing.. my first word was F***... (I tried to say truck) 🤣🤣😁👍
