What's the heaviest anyone here got TKR?

For me, I started at 470 and lost 125 pounds in 11 months. My weight was officially tracked throughout so my surgeon was able to get me into surgery at 345lbs. Has anyone had it done this heavy? What challenges do you feel you faced that were different than those who get it in the typical covered weight range (bmi 40, as opposed to my 60)?

And, yes, I plan on continuing to lose weight. Both knees are bad and I'm hoping that, even at 60yo, having decent knees will help me lose even more

Note: I included my weight loss and journey in this post for context only. The purpose of my post was to ask about challenges at higher weights, not to discuss my weight loss.

2026 Yukon AT4 ride questions and help

I'm looking at getting a new Yukon and have some questions I'm hoping someone can answer here. Specifically, I'm eyeing the 2026 Yukon AT4 4WD with the AT4 Premium Plus package. That also includes the Air Ride Adaptive Suspension and the Active Response 4WD system. I want to get all this with 20" tires. I have no intent for offroading - I'm shopping features and comfort and this package covers all the features, with comfort being the big question. Can anyone give me an idea what the ride would be like on one of these? And possibly how it might compare to a 2026 Tahoe Premier?

Supercruise vs Enhanced Lane Keep Assist help

I'm wondering if anyone can tell me what awesome benefits there are to supercruise if you aren't all that interested in using it. I've driven a number of vehicles with it and having to sit there and stare at the road while not using your hands on the wheel hasn't been all that appealing. And lane centering is available with enhanced lane keep assist, right? So, other than mapping your route to supercruise roads and telling you where you can use them or automatically adjusting your braking distance when trailering, there doesn't seem to be a lot, especially when the lack of a mapped road loses the lane centering.

Am I missing something? Because I'm about to order a new Tahoe and I want to understand what I may or may not get before I do.
