Since a Tahoe is a truck it doesn't have to comply with the car rollover standards. Driving around in a giant unsafe vehicle that makes you "feel" safe is ludicrous. Its called being part of the problem, not part of the solution. RT

The Tahoe according to the owners manual requires a distance of 158' to stop from 60 MPH and the the 300D according to the owners manual requires 165' for the same stopping distance. I'm still looking for the handling specs for both vehicles. I refuse to believe that our Tahoe is an unsafe vehicle. Remember also our Tahoe has the police suspension package, it was previously owned by the US Bureau of Land Management, it is not just a generic Tahoe.
RT, I invite you to drive our Tahoe and the 300D to compare for yourself which is the better handling vehicle.
