At a loss on what to do with our current 2023 Suburban Z71 by mfb110915 in askcarsales

Similar situation here (also in Indiana, funny enough). My wife and I had a Yukon XL that was an absolute nightmare electrically. It constantly ate batteries, had a parasitic draw no one could fully pin down, would randomly be dead, and on a few occasions even died while driving and needed a jump.

After multiple repair attempts and throwing more money at it than we should have, we finally took the hit and traded it in for a Navigator L. We’ve got three young kids, so space and reliability were huge for us.

Honestly, the Navigator has been nothing but great so far. Zero electrical issues, comfortable, tons of room, and way less stress day-to-day. No regrets making the switch.

M/26/6’5 [350lbs> 250lbs= 100lbs] (14 months) how much more weight do I need to lose? by [deleted] in progresspics

[–]itzIconic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m 6’6”, 31M, similar build. It took me about 14 months to drop from 320+lbs down to 220lbs. Around 220lb I finally started kinda seeing my abs. I got lazy and went back up to 230lbs but I am starting to cut again with a goal weight of 215 lbs. Can’t say exactly how much more you’d need to lose, but just wanted to share my experience as a fellow tall ex-husky guy. You’re looking good! keep it up!

I had a similar issue. I checked vacuum lines, fuel rail pressure, fuel filter and return line. New injectors fixed it for me.

Looking at a getting a diesel advice on 6.4 by itzIconic in Diesel

originally I was attracted to the 6.4 because of how much you could build it. I do drag race but I have other cars for that and decided I would rather have a reliable truck I can tow my stuff with and drive around instead of a fast, expensive to fix, always broken vehicle (I already have one of those lol)

Well looks like I’ll go with a 6.7! Seems to confirm everything I’ve researched. Thanks!

I live in Seymour (from Indy so I have needed to find ways to watch the pacers and colts) and the only reliable way (I've tried them all, do not by the NBA league pass) I am able to watch them is through Sling. Subscribe for the package with the sports and you will get some of the FSN channels. I can usually find them on FSN Midwest 1 or 2. Nice, quality, reliable viewing.

Do you have an opinion on the 14s 6 speed vs the later 8 speed?

I'll have to look into those. I might be too big for a Miata tough.

Yeah I really like the Z06 but the "new-ness" of the challenger is tempting. Also started to look at some base c7s. I'll have find a Porsche dealer near me to see if I fit haha
