The lower part of my air dam is made from lawn edging and takes a beating but that's is by design. It is easy to replace.
That's good to know!

I won't be doing anything involving lawn edging as looks are still very important to me. I think I read about the red truck on this site. Pretty impressive actually. I don't want to scrape on everything which with my lowering kit happening soon I may have enough of a problem as is.

Depending on whether you're actually trying to slow down or whether you're just trying to coast, staying in gear is sometimes advantageous, depending on how your Tahoe handles it.
I would love to do this and I will be asking my tuner to add this to my ECU update. The Tahoe currently doesn't do it though.
