My understanding is the Grand is the Suburban version over the Tahoe version, but then I can be wrong too, but that is how it appears to me.

This is a very cool use and shows that the battery packs have a long life even after being used in an auto. Same with the Chevrolet Volt as the battery packs are being used in everything from wall power grids to keep a home warm and functioning during electrical outages to portable power systems for a wide variety of use.

I always laughed even though maybe not the most polite jokes, but funny still is all the Little Johnny Jokes. Finding one of her students making faces at others on the playground, Ms. Smith stopped to gently reprimand the child. Smiling sweetly, the Sunday school teacher said, “Johnny, when I was a little girl, I was told if that I made ugly faces, it would freeze and I would stay like that.” Little Johnny looked up and replied, “Well, Ms Smith, you can’t say you weren’t warned.” Little Johnny came running into the house and asked, “Mommy, can little girls have babies?” “No,” said his mom, “Of course not.” Little Johnny then ran back outside and his mom heard him yell to his friends, “It’s okay! We can play that game!” Little Johnny is always being teased by the other neighborhood boys for being stupid. Their favorite joke is to offer Johnny his choice between a nickel and a dime Little Johnny always takes the nickel. One day, after Johnny takes the nickel, a neighbor takes him aside and says, “Johnny, those boys are making fun of you. Don’t you know that a dime is worth more than a nickel, even though the nickel’s bigger?” Johnny grins and says, “Well, if I took the dime, they’d stop doing it, and so far I’ve made $20!” 23 Little Johnny Jokes That Will Make You Laugh (humoropedia.com)

@2QuickZ's @regfootball And you have limited towing hauling capacity other than kids and basic stuff. Minivan cannot go off road like an SUV. Minivan cannot tow like an SUV and still haul. 10K difference if that is true is a bargain for all the added stuff the SUV can do. For the pinched leg room for driver / front passenger I would never get one, hard pass for me. But I do get what families love about them and respect you both. Remember they both have their use cases and a Minivan CANNOT do what the SUV can do.

Motor1 has a great story on the C8 SuperVette. 1978 the Lambroghini Countach showed up with a 345mm or 13.5 inch wide tire. Current standard C8 Tire is 305 mm To quote why they need these big wide tires: Even with wide tires and rear-biased weight distribution, we suspect the new Z06 will still be traction-challenged. That's because a road-going version of the 5.5-liter DOHC V8 used in the C8.R is expected to arrive under the engine cover. The flat-plane-crankshaft mill will reportedly redline at 9,000 RPM and develop between 600 and 650 horsepower (447 and 485 kilowatts) in the process, but the tire torturing won't stop there. The next ZR1 will reportedly add turbochargers to this engine for 850 hp (634 kW), and of course, we have the Zora hybrid that could top 1,000 hp (746 kW). We still expect to see the new C8 Z06 debut later this year as a 2022 model. C8 Corvette Z06 Spied Wearing Massive Countach-Sized Rear Tires (motor1.com)
