On my Yukon, I found out the hard way they changed the warranty to 60k from 100k like the LS days. A$$holes. I think the engineering on the LT's is pretty amazing, but the execution didn't go as planned. JMO, don't flame me on that one, I am going what I am seeing on the street/forums. I have seen plenty of 300k LS's, have yet to see an LT anything make it even half that on a large scale.

I'm not surprised. New vehicles are getting far too complicated for my taste. Every ounce of efficiency pursued and every gadget under the sun that will fail over a long duration. I think we'll end up with a 4 Runner for my wife. It's still the same platform from a decade ago with a powertrain that has been around for 17 years. I'm in the minority I realize, but I like that!
