I have both a 2020 AT4 (so not ZR2 but close) and a 2017 200 in my garage. We used to have a Volvo XC70 wagon and the Cruiser but my wife wanted a bigger car so we traded in the Volvo for the truck and I gave her the Cruiser to drive. I absolutely love the AT4. I *also* absolutely love the...

@CharlieS - when you're done can you update with photos and any gotchas. Looking to do this on mine since we have a chip in the leather.

I hate that I'm always surprised by the bad service. You would think with two 200s that I would be prepared for the nonsense each time and each time it's a new adventure in what they can hose up. One of my best friends runs service for a very large Peterbilt dealer group and said the #1 rule...

The risk analysis on display these days is eye watering.

Don't forget Palo Duro Canyon just south of Amarillo. It's not halfway, but it puts you within half a day's drive from Denver.

It was recently aligned (last 1k miles) and the toe was out, but otherwise not too far off.

Update: went by Discount Tire today for a rotation and balance on schedule. The rears were 8/32s each and the fronts were 6/32s and 7/32s. I had them do a standard x-rotation and by and large the suspension issues, but notably the alignment/off-center steering issues were solved. Still a...

I have stock size Michelin LTX MS/2s and they have probably around 40k on them. They're 38psi cold. They definitely don't look worn and there is plenty of tread depth. I however haven't been wild about them because I feel like I'm getting some robust tire pull. It's on my list to go by...

That's what I thought but the back seems to be VERY wander-y.

Depends on where in Central Illinois. I grew up in Champaign and tons of folks used the Lexus dealer in Peoria for relatively great reviews. If you're north of I-74 I'd probably use one of the Chicago dealers. South maybe STL, but I'd guess they see more LX570s in Chicago. I was not...

The wife "commandeered" the Cruiser (fully stock) last summer and I've been driving a GMC 1500 AT4. The truck is much firmer on the suspension. I drove the Cruiser again recently and it seems really squishy and wandering. Much more than I remember in the 50k of me driving it. We're...

Thank you

Slight correction here: it's the lower transfer case protector. Still looking for any of the above info on removal.

Could someone help me out? In the image below, is the bolt that is missing in the circled area required to be removed so that bracket can be removed in order to change the transfer case fluid? The reason I ask is thus: In November I took my vehicle in to the dealer to have the transfer case...

I did a ton of driving this weekend between South Texas, Houston, DFW, and west of Fort Worth. - probably 1000 miles worth, and 600 of that was in weather where I normally went 80 and stayed below 45mph. I did about 75% of my poor-weather driving in a rental 2WD 2021 Yukon and the other 25% in...
