Tahoe all the way. Big enough to be useful for when the whole fam is together. Small enough that I don't get frustrated in the city...mostly. Also, why did we start the vid by watching you adjust yourself?
You can still get 9 seats in the Tahoe which you can’t do in the Expedition which is good because a front bench seat is cheaper than front bucket seats with a center console
The Tahoe is really impressive! However, I would probably skip on it and go for it's twin, the GMC Yukon. The exterior on that one was executed wonderfully and the interior is amazing. Even more so if you can afford the Denali grade. If I ever buy one of these behemoths. It has to be the long wheelbase versions.
Love watching your Micah Drives videos with your family. It gives such an “upbeat” “normalcy” in such crazy times. Your are truly blessed with a great family Micah.
Just purchased a Tahoe LT. Very impressed with the options for the lower trim. We wanted a higher trim, but the options are so similar we couldn't justify the additional cost with higher trim levels
Never understood the appeal of these things until I rented one for week on a trip. Now I get it. It's pretty fun being the king of the road and towering over everyone.
FYI - the strange dash pocket door storage is intended for your sunglasses as they removed the typical holder from above. Hence the felt lined interior. Great review!
I have always loved the design of the Tahoe, but that 3.5 ecoboost is both powerful and efficient. I was able to achieve 24 mpg on the highway with the Expedition I rented. I am looking at the Tahoe and waiting for what Chevy will do with the revised 3.0 diesel.
@@profribasmat217 hahaha Mr know-it-all (or should I create a more appropriate name like cluemore). Take it easy. People offer opinions and feel free to disagree without resorting to name calling. Of course the Armada is an inferior product. The current Armada is the same Nissan Patrol that has been sold overseas for at least 9 years riding on a shorter wheelbase than the previous first generation Nissan Armada. Its chassis and power train are quite old compared to the two modern American counterparts. Having a 7 speed auto doesn’t help it’s abysmal fuel economy. The third row of this Armada is extremely cramped even though they made it much smaller for easy folding (the seat bottom and seat back are both very small, I remember seating in the third row at the auto show and the top of that seat was several inches below my shoulders and the bottom cushion was only barely inches from my butt and the knee-in-your-chin situation was accentuated by how much closer to the floor the seat bottom is). Compared to the two aforementioned competitors, this is a horrible setup, unlike the original Armada which had a very spacious 3rd row comparable to the Expedition and Sequoia. *See, that’s how it’s done, disagree with someone and offer a fact based opinion. We could all spend our days insulting each other and never get anywhere, in a civilized society things are done differently.
@@profribasmat217 we are all entitled to an opinion, we argue with facts and at the end of the day either agree or agree to disagree. We all have the right to an objective or subjective opinion. There are people who will go head over heels when it comes to the Armada and they are entitled to their opinion. I personally wouldn’t be caught driving any Nissan product with a CVT or even their ancient powertrain. I respect the GTR or is it GT-R(?). Their cars do not resonate with me, despite selling millions of them worldwide. Every automaker does their research and makes certain compromises when designing a car, Nissan’s compromises don’t cut it with me and I am sure I was not their targeted customer base.
@@robertkamanzi9147 As a guy from SEA(Philippines), who has spent a lot of time in the USA. I can with the utmost certainty say, I do prefer Japanese cars over American. Nissan, Toyota, Mitsubishi, Subaru, Honda, seem to have more of an upside than Ford, Chevy, Jeep, Dodge, Kia, etc. However. there are more American cars that are better for what they are meant to do.
@@PrizeJ The last 4 cars I bought were Scion XB, Toyota RAV4, Prius V and 2018 Prius. And before that it was GMC Yukon and Pontiac Grand Prix. I love cars in general, some cars resonate better than others. I loved my Prius V and then went and got a current generation Prius to add to my stable, I wouldn’t trade any of my cars for anything else. So back to my original post, the Tahoe and the Expedition were recent refreshes and were almost completely reworked and opposed to the Armada which, for costs saving, was switched from the original Armada to the older and smaller Nissan Patrol/Infinity QX80 platform (not QX56 which was shared with the original Armada). So size wise, the Armada is smaller in all dimensions, including interior dimensions (seating for all 3 rows, cargo space behind 1st, 2nd and 3rd rows). It is a good looking full size SUV, but the underpinnings are less modern comparatively, same for the powertrain. I can’t fault them for not putting the effort in, they don’t sell as many. The full size GM trucks own over 60-70% of that market, Ford owns another big chunk, and Jeep Wagoneer coming in now, there won’t be much left for Armada and Sequoia (even the new ones have been made smaller, same formula Armada tried, albeit with hybrid powertrain). The jury is still out but I can say with certainty in any full size comparison the Armada will most likely come out last. They will still sell a ton to rental companies though. Full size SUV’s are big profit makers for GM/Ford and now Jeep, they invest a lot more in those. Compare a Camry to a Malibu, your statement makes a lot of sense, GM doesn’t spend much time and money updating sedans and smaller vehicles, because those don’t generate much in profits.
Love the video. I hit the like button. Been waiting for this one. I think this is the first Chevy (since the bailout) that I'd consider buying, but due to my 3 kids, I'd probably go for the Suburban and get the 3.0L diesel. We have an Odyssey and dislike the road noise that comes in the cabin and want a vehicle that rides higher. ~~ Living in Texas, those who have stealth wealth drive a Suburban, Yukon Denali XL for show offs, and Escalde if you're gaudy rich or a rapper.
I bought a 2021 Tahoe Z71 for my family and I can say it is a great vehicle. Don't get me wrong, these are pricey, but honestly worth it. One drawback I have noticed and discussed with other owners of the Z71 trim is that the fuel economy is affected. I average 15.0 mpg with around 70% highway miles. This is an awesome review. I am seeing more content around family usability of different vehicles and yours is great. I have subscribed and look forward to more reviews.
The size and the color makes me think this was a step towards the windowless white van. It’s almost that big. Far less creepy. When you got the first high five I expected your daughter to ask if it meant the video was over 😂
Fun and informative! Hey, can we coin a new word here? Funformative! I'll let you use it. No, really. Go ahead. Be my guest 😄 Hey, this was a lot of fun, and I loved how you inserted a pennyfarthing onto the road! I played that part back (13:44) a couple of times as it was awesome! 😂 Keep up the good work Micah and family! I look forward to your next funformative video! 😊
The Chevrolet Tahoe and Suburban, the GMC Yukon and Yukon XL, and the Cadillac Escalade account for 50% of all large SUV sales in the US. GM makes 340,000 of them every year and exports about 80,000 to 31 countries. They’re made in GM’s plant in Arlington, Texas, which is said to be the most profitable assembly plant in the world. We estimate they generate $20 billion in revenue for GM and about $4 billion in profits. Autoline Daily.
I like these very much. But being the sensible sort, I'll wait 3 years for GM to work out the bugs, and then another 3 years to pick up a depreciated one used. So...see you in 6 years!
I am not a fan of the driving assist. I drive a basic car that has nothing. 07 Ford Taurus Back in October we drove down to Florida and we took my cousins new Highlander and I did all the driving. I had to have her turn off all the driving assists I felt like I had no control over the vehicle at all. Maybe cause I am not used to all that technology. I do however understand why it is in the vehicles now. Now I will say though she did keep the brake assist on and that was a helpful feature. That Highlander was a nice comfortable ride for 17 hours. Thing did great driving up into the mountains and such.
No second row tilt feature access to the third row is a big miss for Chevy especially when you have child seats in the second row. That should have been a no brainer for a redesigned vehicle in 2021.
From a value perspective it would be crazy to choose a $49k base Tahoe over a well-equipped Pacifica Limited all-wheel drive trim. But some folks can stand a minivan.🤷♂️
the front end just looks stubby the proportions just look weird, they need a better designer as well as a better interior. looks like chevy is behind the times once again. look at all the japanese manufacturers that are giving us better quality interiors (mazda, and the new nissans) and especially the korean brands
I thought I was driving past an artistic community with street dancers and sidewalk performers but was later informed the "artists" were all on meth hanging out at the bustop.
Tahoe vs Expedition. Which would you choose?
Tahoe all the way. Big enough to be useful for when the whole fam is together. Small enough that I don't get frustrated in the city...mostly. Also, why did we start the vid by watching you adjust yourself?
Tahoe still wins this vehicle segment for me. I really think the Tahoe drives so much better and I prefer the Tahoe styling.
You can still get 9 seats in the Tahoe which you can’t do in the Expedition which is good because a front bench seat is cheaper than front bucket seats with a center console
Tahoe.

How can someone not like Micah and this family 😩😩
Love watching your Micah Drives videos with your family. It gives such an “upbeat” “normalcy” in such crazy times. Your are truly blessed with a great family Micah.
Jason, believe me, we need the escape too. Thanks for watching and giving us a good reason to make videos.
The daughter is taking over the video and I LOVE IT

LMAO at your daughter just chilling in the back, minding her own business, doing her own thing. 😂
Micah, your family is lovely! Please keep posting consistently!
Thanks, Juan!
FYI - the strange dash pocket door storage is intended for your sunglasses as they removed the typical holder from above. Hence the felt lined interior. Great review!
Now that I'm in my 60s a grab handle on the driver's side is a must in a vehicle I have to climb up into. More manufacturers need to figure this out.
Bringing your family along on your reviews was genius!
You are dad goals.
You guys always make me smile when I watch these videos 👍
I appreciated that you actually showed and explained the difference of those other trim levels!

Tahoe over Expedition all day but I would also drive the updated Armada it looks nice as hell too
Check the third row of that Armada, you might change your mind.

Micah may God bless your family, I've like you since I was a teenage boy in 2014, it was kbb, love from Iran❤
I truly appreciate you sharing such kind words. Sending love from our family to you. Cheers!!
The face Evy made @ 9:30 while driving is pure terror 😂

4:42 surprised reviewers missed this, w/ the sunroof option you delete option for sunglasses holder, my glasses fit in perfect
Thanks for the review me and my wife have been going back and forth on this truck
Thank you, Evie, for suggesting that not everyone likes the nanny features.
Love these reviews with the family
Your family is awesome! I really enjoyed the review :)
It looks like u guys are driving around my home town..
Great video. ☺☺☺
What did she say?!
WHY are people continuing to sleep on Michah and family?! Get this man to 100K!
Love these family reviews
Tahoe . Micah family rocks as always . Bless
Awesome video Micah! 😸😸
Great review as always👍🏾
Chevrolet definitely needs to hire a new designer for the front end.
The size and the color makes me think this was a step towards the windowless white van. It’s almost that big. Far less creepy. When you got the first high five I expected your daughter to ask if it meant the video was over 😂
Ha! 💯 This was very near WWV territory.
Our girl gets a lil bored sometimes when we are shooting the review but LOVES to do the demos.
I’m just here for that windowless white Van review.
Evie's a cutie!👍🏻
I'd love to see a third door to be able to access the rear 7 seats/9 seats directly.
I think the EPA estimates on the Tahoe are way under... I drove a rental Tahoe and easily got mid 20's on the highway. Kept speed under 70mph.
Keep it up buddy your are doing great job..
You're very kind, Kashif. Cheers!
What was wrong with the PRND Column shifter? I've developed the muscle memory and I don't want push button gear selectors.
Push button transmissions aren’t new though. They had them back in the 50s.
Hmm not bad. Can you review GMC yukon? Please. Thanks :)

I’m guessing that large gas vehicles will be depreciating a lot after 2025.
What would be your recommendation for a family of 7 . SUV. No mini van. We just subscribed to your channel to support your family.
What is the color?

Will you start posting the drives from Arrowhead soon?
Micah, with value in mind. how does this compare to the pacifica?
From a value perspective it would be crazy to choose a $49k base Tahoe over a well-equipped Pacifica Limited all-wheel drive trim. But some folks can stand a minivan.🤷♂️
@@MicahMuzio i thought so, thanks.
Well equipped new pacificas can be got for 35k.
I like a lot the new Tahoe and its front end, a lot more than the Yukon or he Cadillac.
the front end just looks stubby the proportions just look weird, they need a better designer as well as a better interior. looks like chevy is behind the times once again. look at all the japanese manufacturers that are giving us better quality interiors (mazda, and the new nissans) and especially the korean brands
I mean, this is a huge improvement for Chevy. I’d say they’re on the right track at least. This is the first Tahoe I am actually interested in.
12 monsters 👿 so far ha
Are you still with KBB? Or is this the only place we will see you now?
I'm still with KBB. I host roughly half of the reviews over there.
@@MicahMuzio Awesome! I just discovered this channel, I loved your KBB reviews excited to see even more content on this channel!
i like the tahoe front end
I thought I was driving past an artistic community with street dancers and sidewalk performers but was later informed the "artists" were all on meth hanging out at the bustop.
10:09 Yeah perhaps... This is why I call it the Oh My God handle. It's only useful to the passengers.
Hyundai and kia coming tahoe rivals ?
Awesomeness 🖐️
DURANGO PLEASE
9:33 "Its so big" something she has never told Micah lol
None of the reviewers can figure out what the sunglass cubby in the dash is for, it's so obvious!
Come on, those 20 monsters...
The 2021 Tahoe can stop shorter from 70 mph than a Mazda 3
Who did it. Who disliked the video!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A like for the cutest little tootsie
What did Evie say that made Sensi the Censorship Bird make an early appearance??
This car looks they cut in half an Escalade and threw on a sienna rear.
Watching the dislike button like 👀👀
😂
3:20
I like your family than the car..
