Just came back from long trip...
Spent 20 plus hours in the car for he round trip and here's what I noticed:
1. Vibration seems to be lessening. Not sure but it seems to be less noticible on a long drive.
2. Rear axle (specifically the ring and pinion gears) whine between 75-82mph. I followed all break in procedures. I told lexus - they said they could not recreate it.
3. Truck gets about 19.5 miles to the gallon. Not bad for a steady 80mph with a full load and a/c on.
4. Having the "rear air" controls only in the back is a pain if the driver has to turn it on. Chevy offers controls in the front. hmmmm.
5. Truck does well in heavy sand (on beach) but I wish the air suspension would raise the truck in front as well.
6. Navigation can act screwy! Usually right on, but not always.
I still have no 1k card, but otherwise I'm happy.
