2018 Chevrolet Tahoe RST 6. 2L First Drive Review In 4K JNeuel: I would never go back to driving my 5. 3 L 2013 Tahoe now that I have a 6. 2 RST. As far as the ride goes and your C+ score, you do realize as I am sure you do (you seem some what car knowledgeable) that as you noted not only does the Tahoe straddle or blur several lines between cross over and large SUV. What the RST really is at its heart is a true Chevrolet Sport Truck? Which right off the top of my head I think the last one was the SS Blazer? Granted on broken roads my RST in 2 wheel drive is more bumpy than my 5. 3 but thats the whole point of the MRC suspension and the sport tuning to said suspension. If you want a waterbed on wheels then by all means get the 5. 3 and save the extra 20, 000. Me? I am a GM Performance Enthusiast, I follow Chevrolet racing closely. The RST Tahoe is made for a niche market. Anyone else thinking of getting one, dont waste your money on the brakes, they dont do anything for stopping distance, just a decrease in fade, and those calipers are not on the rear. Borla exhust? .meh sounds great, but I went regular because I want the rear exit twin exhust for my RST not the side exit. So I saved there, do not need rear seat entertainment with a 4G LTE hotspot and a tablet or phone. My little one uses an Ipad, saving there. Gas mileage with the way I drive is 12. 5 avg and a best of 21. 5 in the 168 miles I have put on it. Other than that I got my 2018 RST same color and wheels as your test truck (Tungsten Metallic, my interior is Jet Black not brown. For 70, 125. 00 TTL incl. It looks great sitting next to my wifes 2017 Nightfall Grey Mettalic SS with the LS3 and the MRC. :) Anyone who is serious about buying a Tahoe and understands what it is. DO NOT BUY A TRAVERSE. ITS A THROW AWAY FRONT WHEEL DRIVE UNIBODY. WITH A THROWAWAY ENGINE. That is why they have packed all that tech into it. Its perfect for the (husbands who dont know cars) to get for their ( wives who dont know cars) its a really shiny and fancy pig, but a pig none the less. Hey if you have thirty thousands dollars to throw away and are ok with buying something that will last about 7 years and be worth jack shit when you go to sell it, by all means buy that polished turd. A QX60? Get out of here, a potato with a roof rack. I think not. and damn straight not happening for 65, 000. No Dodges up in this Family. Great video I enjoyed your multiple camera angles. I wonder if you have ever done a review of the Chevrolet SS? You got a new sub also. :)

No Forget the Ford Expedition Make it the Lincoln Navigator. first the Ford Expedition has the ugliest interior box on box on tilted box that the F-150 has which is why I do not like the F-150. But what I do like is all its Awards on every other aspect. Thats why I love a Lincoln Navigator, which keeps all of that wonderful underpinnings engine and everything else but also does without that ugliest interior in the segment. Please do Navigator one first if you can. How much do you want to bet you will call it your favorite large SUV ever?

HI, we are shopping for a crossover or a SUV and a major thing that my wife cares about is power brake and accelerator pedals to raise and lower them. Nobody ever mentions it. It is on our minivan and she really loves not hugging the steering wheel as she is kind of short. I wish people mentioned it on their videos. also my wife wants a split coach seats in the middle and a bench in that back some can and some cant but it would be nice if it was mentioned.

These things are so packed with profit. They literally cost twice what I paid for an SLT Yukon in 2001 - and Im still driving it on the same engine and tranny. 310, 000 miles. Im looking at replacing it, but just dont know if Im willing to fork over that kind of cash. Plus, their price point throws you into Q7 and Rover territory. Ive seen them for 10K off though. Youll never see an Audi or RR Sport with that discount.

Maybe I am missing something, but your reviews for the Nissan and Infinity claim 0. 5 second slower 0-60 times than this which is counter to the videos statements. I wouldnt mention it, but since performance is really a major portion of this vehicles identity, I believe this should be described correctly.
reply

What did Nissan do to peeve you Alex? The QX80 just keeps getting slammed throughout the whole video. Not that I disagree, because everything you say is either objectively true or a credible and honest opinion. But you generally dont do this in your other videos.
reply

Always a great video Alex. Havent really considered the Tahoe / Yukon. Even in the Sportier version. I am still still looking at the 2018 Ford Expedition and Land Rover Discovery. Cant wait till you get your hands on one and break it down for us.

Have this exact RST, Love it If you didnt tell me i would think i was strapped into a new LZ1. If you are worried about the price - probably shouldnt be looking at new SUVs generally speaking, these new rigs are incredibly advanced.
reply

REALLY All that size and money and piece of shit room in 2nd and 3rd row My 2013 pilot cost half the price and have 100 times more room in those 2 rows hands down. What in the world is Chevy/ GMC doing with their large suvs
reply

Thanks Alex for a great review. I still think Chevys 5. 3 L remains a strong engine as well that does not feel underpowered and runs on regular gas. The savings over the 6. 2: with option packages is substantial.
