Since you're the founding father, do you know the specific differences b/w KR and FX4? I've read about the skid plate (easy fix) and rear end and the obvious cosmetic differences, but not sure about any others. I've heard good things about the off road capabilities of the FX4 and just haven't heard as much about the KR 4x4, though I'm sure it handles itself just fine.

No offense, but I like the Adobe interior better than the KR, although I do think the black KR interior looks pretty badass.

Era: the best interior is the Pecan on the Platinum trim.

As far as new vs used.

I went in to buy a 2 year old Tahoe a month ago and walked out with a 2013. With the interest rates on new vehicles and the rebates they offered it was a no brainer

I got the black in mine, and they changed up the seats a little bit and got rid of some of the tan edging

Looks nice, but I got no pics

i'm not sure what you mean? do you mean the option to have the locking rear?

that is available on the KR, it's standard on the FX4

Yeah, that was it. Was reading another forum and they were talking about the locking differential. Didn't realize it was available on KR.

KR with offroad package has everything the fx4 does


If it says off road under the 4x4 sticker, it's got it

Appreciate it

I'm looking very much forward to this new truck. I've been training for way too long and it's time for a nice reward
