For the 2023 model year, there's also a Performance Edition available (though that pairs the 6.2L V8, not the 5.3L) with upgraded chassis & brake components. On the 5.3L RST you still get upgraded wheels, sport-appearance details and the usual Tahoe utility"”so you're getting a mix of capability style. ðŸ”� Things to Consider / Watch Fuel and operating costs: With a large V8 and full-size SUV dimensions, fuel economy will be modest. Don't expect compact-SUV numbers. Rear-wheel drive vs 4WD: RWD is standard, which is fine for many uses"”however if you anticipate snow, ice, off-road, or heavy towing/conditions you may want to consider 4WD. Towing/performance balance: The 5.3L is capable, but if you plan heavy towing frequently you might want to compare to the 6.2L engine option. Space & size: This is a big vehicle. Maneuvering, parking, seeing blind spots"”these are all things to live with. Maintenance & reliability: As with any big SUV, maintenance and running costs (tires, brakes, etc) will be higher than a midsize vehicle. Trim vs features: The RST adds sporty flourishes, but if luxury or off-road is your priority you might compare other trims (Z71, Premier, High Country) to see feature differences. 📌 Good Fit For A family needing lots of space (3-row seating cargo) but wanting sportier styling. Someone who tows occasionally (boat, trailer) but in typical conditions where 8-ish thousand lbs towing is sufficient. Someone comfortable with big-SUV operating costs, and who prioritizes capability & presence over minimal fuel use.
