Opinions on best newish Suburban or Tahoe

I forget that some people don't enjoy/want to work on/improve/mod a vehicle lol. Like my '05 I just bought that's already spiraled WAYYY out of hand

This is why I had the transmission guy do mine actually. I was ASE certified in automatic and standard transmissions when I was 17(28 yrs ago...), but never had to tear into one once out of school. I probably could have got the tools, diaged the trans and repaired it with several days of youtube watching and remedial reading. However, the $862 to get it done right and not having to lay on my back on ice cold concrete was a very worthwhile spend for me. I would have probably thrown my back out and missed a bunch of income tripping over dollars while chasing nickels.

I really do appreciate the folks who jump in with both feet on a major project and I do love following along. Now, I'm fine for suspension, steering, brakes and other light maintenance/repair, but when the $#!t get deep - I know me and in those instances paying a pro is the way to go for optimal efficiency and positive outcome.

That is something I would also like to learn how to do, but that's definitely one thing for the daily that I'll hand off to a pro. I'll find a junkyard core to do myself and then swap in to see if I did it right lol
