The number 1 thing that pisses me off when driving is when people drive slow in the left lane. That, and when 2 cars drive side by side and no body can get around. That makes my blood BOIL!
+Jasper Chang I have the same gripe. Makes me think they either didn't pay for a indicator package or break their lights off since they are not using it.
Mr C. I thoroughly enjoy the commentaries that you provide on your show; not just the data info but also the style in which you bring the information. You are concise and forthright, you do not just parrot the marketing sheet that is probably provided with the vehicles and tech items you review. As a gearhead (muscle car enthusiast) it is a refreshing approach you take, as a Chris Harris, Tanner Faust & Jeremy Clarkson fan who are extremely "emotional" which I like very much, you have the NY Times/Wall Streeet Journal style that is a throwback to the revered TV news anchors who I have admired. Thanks Andrew Ippolito - Brooklyn, NY..... PS we know all too well about road rage, I think it was invented in NY!!
The top 3 things that seriously annoy me in a car are; 1) People driving the wrong way in a parking lot (and subsequently stealing your spot.) 2) Cars with super-bright aftermarket xenon headlamps (so bright, it'll burn your eyeballs.) 3) Slowpokes, everywhere, even on freeways and when the lights turn green (Seriously? 35-40MPH on a 65MPH zone???)
when cooley said "safe" in the suburban i busted out laughing since thats why practically all gm cars, including this one, are being recalled, surprised he hasnt mentioned that part
Plus if you hit a tree or another car chances are you can drive away and the recalled cars were made in the economic recession from 2006 and when gm went bankrupt they had to make lower quality cars, but now gm has recovered and they quality in there cars skyrocketed
TheChildTekKid you do realize that gm has 2014 and even 2015 model cars involved in the recall as well right? and i do agree with you on quality. maybe the next generation of gm vehicles will not blame their safety issues on ignorance
When Cooley said safe I immediately thought of baseball, so I started practicing my umpire skills in my house. Once I got bored with that I put on my baseball pants and started running around outside with my Lil' Sluggman bat and screaming "RUNNER ON FIRST" "GROUND RULE DOUBLE" and, "RBI" It was a really fun day today, I got very sweaty.
I drove the both the short and long wheel base. Both have sluggish accelerator pedals and steering. And because they still have a solid rear axle in the rear the third row is confining because the floor is so high. My wife and I drove over to look at the current Expedition and found out there is a new one coming out this fall. We drove the out dated one and found that the steering and accelerator feel so much more natural. And then when checking out the rear seats we saw how low the floor is for the passengers in the 3rd row. Something very annoying in both of the GM products we drove. Subsequently the when you fold down the seats they do fold flat by not level. The Fords and Lincoln we looked at when the seats are folded the seats not only fold flat but also level do to having independent rear suspension. The GM product was awesome to look at. And the interior cockpit was very nice. But for practical reasons I'm waiting to check out the new exterior and interior cockpit of both the Lincoln Navigator and Ford Expedition.
Parking in between lines can sometimes be tricker than we think. If a lot is really full, people spend a long time trying to find a parkingspot. When you finally find a spot, its small and tight, pinched between two cars. Luckily, your car fits perfectly in with enough room for you to get out. Once the lot starts clearing out, it starts to be more apparent that your parking isn't exactly in between the lines. It looks like you parked right in the middle, or so, taking up two spots. When you parked, your main worry is not to park in between the lines. You just want to put your freaking put your car somewhere because you are late to your meeting or whatever. Anyways, just something to think about.
Those that hate on this car have never driven it. The 72K rah Can come down to like 60-65K at a dealer, and trust me, it’s worth it. This thing has so much comfort and practicality.
Just a comment here for the host of these segments. I think he does very well and I enjoy the info. I'm a car guy and watch 1000's of RUclips videos from major players to guys in the street. Nice job. Maybe you could do some more in-depth stuff and have the tempo a little slower, calmer?
Yet another awesome episode Cooley. Love the informative nature of the show about how stuff works. Could you do a section on car remapping/tuning and common myths about performance enhancements? Best show on CNET, keep up the good work!
Really good show. Speaking of dash cams if there is such a thing as a cam that can function without the car being on I'd like to hear all about it. It would be helpful in cases of vandalism and the like when the car is parked.
Merging and two that are common in Europe, people who cut you off in a roundabout and people who don't realize that their lane moved one space to the side after the intersection practically merging into your lane without even being aware of that.
I hate it when im driving and theres a lifted truck with blue lights shinning into my eyes. I drive a small coupe so its specialy irritating. Second ones when theres a big rig in each lane and slows down the flow of traffic. That really pisses me off. I understand if ones gona need to turn but gosh do they all have to be evely spread out!?
Would be great if you could do a roundup of the best large SUV like this, with the focus on luggage space for the purpose of camping or very large dogs rather than the endless 7 or 8 seaters :S
For most of you that might think that 87 octane fuel is the lowest octane, you haven't been to Montana where the lowest is 85.5 octane. 87 octane is mid-grade and 91 octane is the highest.
nice but hard to justify for 72k when you can get so much more value in a truck. I still can't believe they just basically slap a hood over the trunk and increase the price by 30k :S
Of the 3 vehicles on this platform I prefer the Yukon SLT/Denali. I'm not too keen on the styling of the Tahoe/Suburban and I find the Escalade far too ostentatious in appearance, so to speak (although I love it's interior). I love the headlight, DRL, and grill design if the Yukon as well as the Denali's luxurious yet subdued interior. However, I wish they would just get rid of that column shifter...
oh my gosh it infuriates me that no matter how far I park, people will park around me. Yesterday i went into the mall and parked where there was no other cars and came out to see my car wedged in between a hummer and a suburban.
No one talks about how ridiculously short the driver's seat bottom cushions are getting. I wish Cooley would do a comparison and recommend, cars or CUVs with seats that provide thigh support for guys over 5 feet tall.
im a huge ford fan meaning I HATE CHEVYS. I saw the new expedition and that looks like it might be money well spent then in a 70 grand suburban or a 90k escalade
***** Haha! What? Being a huge Ford fan doesn't automatically mean you have to hate Chevrolet. Being an ignorant 14 year old means you have to polarize every little thing though, and I'm sure you're not an ignorant 14 year old...
I was a bit shocked, Im literally 14. have u seen the ford vs chevy crap tho? they are insane. hate zl1's and zo6 camaros and corvettes. kno that even if the gt500 is that heavy with four seats, it has more power than a lighter zr1. I don't polarize, nevermind
***** HP numbers only matters on paper, or a straight line. GT500 is nice but its getting old. The only people ive seen driving GT500s are people in their mid life crisis who can't afford a Ferrari/Lamborghini lol.
I knew that but it handles a bit. its a four seater. im only saying its an achievement. its faster than a 458 around motor trends figure 8 track. that why it impresses me. kno how much that costs?
I paid 6 years savings 23% of my income for my 60,000 US dollars dream car, just a month later, I always pay attention in parking not too close to anyone, someone parks close to my car and open the door too hard to hit my car, front passenger door has a small bend and chipped paint, and driver car has a smaller bend and paint damage too, each time I see those I want to cry, now I am parkphobia I Park as far as possible to avoid others. I want to cry blood.
According to fuelly, a cruze get 32 mpg, suburban 16. Why don't people just get 2 cruzes instead? You can fit 8 people in two cruzes for family trips. I just don't get american and their need for oversized guzzlers.
I traded a Suburban in for a Range Rover, and their $95K, not 70K. After 2 years, I traded it in for another Suburban. RR is not what it's hyped to be.
After almost giving up the ghost, GM decides to release what looks like a freshened version of a 90s Suburban. Materials courtesy of 1990s GM as well, maybe direct from the 1993 Buick Regal parts bin. Lose weight Range Rover style? Nah. Supercharged DI V6 engines to save gas? Not important. Better driving dynamics? Who needs to improve when you've got Cadillac Deville driving dynamics baby!
one of my favorite episodes!live in Metro detroit area and I can relate to all of the road rage segments. a day doesn't go by that I don't yell or honk at some a hole! (yes I have become my father). the worst is.... slow to get on the expressway pay attention people! u have this ramp to get to speed use it!
Looks like it, but they aren't filling up, they are parked to go into the store

Why there is no small overlap crash test for the vehicle? Even no moderate overlap crash test? Something must be wrong! What are they hiding? XL Coffin?
Too bad that the new Suburban's tow capacity is still not certified by SAE J2807. Until it is, the ratings are all just marketing fluff and could put you in danger if reality is exceeded. Otherwise, its a dandy SUV. But I'll buy a J2807 certified SUV instead. Thank You
I was always saying that Indiana drivers are aholes, but when I visited Ontario, Canada I found that we have the best drivers here in the US. They don't know what the turn signal is!!!!
"85% said they were pleasantly surprised by a thank you wave... that's kinda sad" lmao
Please do 2015 Lincoln Navigator when it comes out! Thanks!
I can't believe this one wasn't in there: changing lanes in front of me when you're going slower than me. Just wait till I'm past you.
I just bought this vehicle 3 weeks ago and i love it
The number 1 thing that pisses me off when driving is when people drive slow in the left lane.
That, and when 2 cars drive side by side and no body can get around. That makes my blood BOIL!
Lol, happens to me too and I get annoyed. Some people drive on the shoulder lane to get around cars that are in front of them.
Hate drivers who don't use blinkers and try to change onto my lane when I have no space or brake hard
+Jasper Chang I have the same gripe. Makes me think they either didn't pay for a indicator package or break their lights off since they are not using it.
Jasper Chang Then you hit the 50 cals.
'This bin qualifies as a seat for a child, don't do that'. HAHAHA.
Cooley for President.

I seen an Integra in Fremont once that was slow low, the driver went over a pothole and hit his head on the ceiling, couldn't help but laugh. xD
LOL ive not seen these guys reviews before but you have you got me on the opening scenes saying "ugly comes free of charge" :D
I was thinking just to watch the suburban review, but the freaking show is so good that I keep watching!
Great show.
70k is a hell of a lot for an old school big SUV but i have no doubt wealthy suburban families will buy them in heaps
when cooley said "safe" in the suburban i busted out laughing since thats why practically all gm cars, including this one, are being recalled, surprised he hasnt mentioned that part

nice try old man
Go to bed, old man!
Dashcams are the way to go. I recently bought one and would not drive again without one.
I drove the both the short and long wheel base. Both have sluggish accelerator pedals and steering. And because they still have a solid rear axle in the rear the third row is confining because the floor is so high.

Shaytards
How like why ?
I was thinking the same haha
Zachary Levine Pretty much a fully loaded LT
Yeah, I was like "Darn, they missed out on the 4G hotspot model!"
that would've been good for the kids but hey

Can't believe these monsters are still around.
I usually see the new Tahoe, American family need these type of cars for road trip
Obviously you've never owned one
You're finally back Brian Cooley
Andy C ew no thanks
Best Suburban review I've seen!
Always a great show!
Did not know cars had to alternate when merging lane. Thanks CNET.
Really good show. Speaking of dash cams if there is such a thing as a cam that can function without the car being on I'd like to hear all about it. It would be helpful in cases of vandalism and the like when the car is parked.
Merging and two that are common in Europe, people who cut you off in a roundabout and people who don't realize that their lane moved one space to the side after the intersection practically merging into your lane without even being aware of that.
Another Fine Episode...
My typical drive is two hours, plus. Getting half an hour off that trip is a massive win. Except, uh, I just lost recently.
I hate it when im driving and theres a lifted truck with blue lights shinning into my eyes. I drive a small coupe so its specialy irritating.
Second ones when theres a big rig in each lane and slows down the flow of traffic. That really pisses me off. I understand if ones gona need to turn but gosh do they all have to be evely spread out!?
Romeo93felix not their fault 😂
really enjoyed this one especially the octane segment..thank you and keep it up Sir
In Malaysia we have ron97 and ron95. The 97 is premium one but here we still atuck with euro 2 grade.
Might as well buy a Porsche cayenne manual for that price
not a fair comparison since cayenne only seats 5
Would be great if you could do a roundup of the best large SUV like this, with the focus on luggage space for the purpose of camping or very large dogs rather than the endless 7 or 8 seaters :S
Now i know why i never see these on the road.
Adrian Macias expensive lol
Thank you gm for still making full size suv's for now.
his car is AWESOME!!
No, his crown Vic
For most of you that might think that 87 octane fuel is the lowest octane, you haven't been to Montana where the lowest is 85.5 octane. 87 octane is mid-grade and 91 octane is the highest.
This is the part of my day where I comment on how frickin awesome Brain Cooley is
Printing through the bottom of your seat :/ what does that magnetic ride control do then? Dang it I was thinking it will make me feel nothing
Toot toot! New episode!
The title of this video really should be called "2015 Chevy Suburban: Big, fresh, tech-laden, and excessively overpriced"
That 8:40 answering phone girl is cute. Don't mind her on the road at all.
nice but hard to justify for 72k when you can get so much more value in a truck. I still can't believe they just basically slap a hood over the trunk and increase the price by 30k :S
Wish he mentioned the 0 to 60 time, he usually does
the most outrageous one that I thought is the high price of the Chevy Suburban
Top 5 nailed
Of the 3 vehicles on this platform I prefer the Yukon SLT/Denali. I'm not too keen on the styling of the Tahoe/Suburban and I find the Escalade far too ostentatious in appearance, so to speak (although I love it's interior).

The power of attraction. Same happen to me all the time
No one talks about how ridiculously short the driver's seat bottom cushions are getting. I wish Cooley would do a comparison and recommend, cars or CUVs with seats that provide thigh support for guys over 5 feet tall.
3D building rendering is useful if you are a limo driver and the Suburban is a limo company favorite.
and the escalade
You should made a video of the gmc acadia mid side suv
Murrica!
loved the video.
Should do a review on the new Alfa 4C
secret garden! somebody likes old skool RnB! lol
Can't wait for the 2015 Ford Expedition to hit the lots. Tired of seeing nothing but Suburbans/Tahoes for the last couple of years.
im a huge ford fan meaning I HATE CHEVYS. I saw the new expedition and that looks like it might be money well spent then in a 70 grand suburban or a 90k escalade

The premium gas I use in dubai is 98 octane
I love the 🚗
You guys only have upto 91 gas in the US? In Saudi Arabia you get 95.
You get up to 97 actually
I get 93 in Florida
Ive seen 100 gas in new york
you are clearly an idiot. even internet cant help you. 95 at normal pumpss, and 100+ for racing fuel applications
No shit, cause the oil is in your back yards lol.
Brian can you please share thoughts on using premium gas on smaller 2.0 inline 4 cylinders
It`s so Frigging Big should be called "URBAN"
Bong and espresso time, weeeeeeeee
Can someone please tell me what background track is it when Mr.Cooley does the E-mail section in each of his episodes. Thanks
I paid 6 years savings 23% of my income for my 60,000 US dollars dream car, just a month later, I always pay attention in parking not too close to anyone, someone parks close to my car and open the door too hard to hit my car, front passenger door has a small bend and chipped paint, and driver car has a smaller bend and paint damage too, each time I see those I want to cry, now I am parkphobia I Park as far as possible to avoid others.
I want to cry blood.
15:41
Model S at a gas station :)
If guys don't like merging, never ever drive in Paris!
According to fuelly, a cruze get 32 mpg, suburban 16. Why don't people just get 2 cruzes instead? You can fit 8 people in two cruzes for family trips. I just don't get american and their need for oversized guzzlers.
Why does the suburban have condensation on one of the lights
$71,000 for a vehicle that will be worth $12,000 by the time your done paying for it? No thanks.
hold on! what car is Brian drivig in the road rage video? 1985 Cadillac?? lol
LOL "...and I trust computers won't be a-holes." Like.
For 70k, I'm getting a Range Rover
Exactly
Have fun taking it to a mechanic once a week.
You will spend more time going vertical then horizontal.
I traded a Suburban in for a Range Rover, and their $95K, not 70K. After 2 years, I traded it in for another Suburban. RR is not what it's hyped to be.
Hardy Creech I think he's referring to a used Rover.
You can buy a 2015 FULLY loaded Suburban for $75,000 USD. Are you kidding me.
Cooley is boss

71 grand! That's too much for a suburban.
That's why BC us the best. Not before Cooley.
Cooley!
Yeah because it needs to look longer
$63,000??? No thanks.
And that's just starting. The Yukon and Escalade prices are absolutely ridiculous for just about the same damn SUV.
The 'I-can't-drive-soccer-mom-mobile'.
It looks to much like a hearse to me😕
Dat Ford wagon xD
literally garbage
Needs a tdi option
15:39, is that a Tesla Model S at the gas station or am I just mistaking the vehicle?
Looks like it, but they aren't filling up, they are parked to go into the store
Why there is no small overlap crash test for the vehicle? Even no moderate overlap crash test? Something must be wrong! What are they hiding? XL Coffin?
Hmm Cooley!!
Great video. But where is 1080p? come on cnet...
Too bad that the new Suburban's tow capacity is still not certified by SAE J2807. Until it is, the ratings are all just marketing fluff and could put you in danger if reality is exceeded. Otherwise, its a dandy SUV. But I'll buy a J2807 certified SUV instead. Thank You
I was always saying that Indiana drivers are aholes, but when I visited Ontario, Canada I found that we have the best drivers here in the US. They don't know what the turn signal is!!!!
how come you are not in the Top Gear US, it would have been soo much better
you, Jay leno and i dont know some other guy, instead of these three now
Think how much it would have cost if they hadn't been bailed out.
I have chevorlet 2016 it is big fresh
2:24 long ass phone
Who are those 10 dislikers? XCar Fans?
Frederick Hovin why you have a shark pfp tho ?
