Tahoe & Suburban The power, space, and brutal towing ability make the Tahoe and its longer sibling, the Suburban, arguably the best full size SUV's on the market today.

Yeah, I'd say mine was about the same, in and out is pretty solid but there is movement front to back thou I have not noticed any fluttering issues while driving with the windows down....
Perhaps someone might be willing to remove the door panel and inspect....

Default yea

I figured it was crap by design vs crap by implementation....

But it would appear the suburbans do not suffer from this.

Also, a lot of modern cars dont have a frame around the windows, and they hold the glass firmly... why can't this vehicle?

do the 2011s suffer from this lack of window securement?

The Suburban's also roll all the way down where as the Tahoe's do not...could have something to do with the way the frame and window have to be accommodated in the door when open..
