Hi Guys/Gals,
Just a quick introduction -- I'm looking for a Tahoe/Yukon (maybe an Escalade...but I'm leaning away from the Cadillac) 2007-2014 GMT900 platform with 4WD (short wheelbase, no XL or Suburbans). I joined this forum so I could get some advice and help from people who own/drive these cars everyday and help me find the perfect car. I am very picky when it comes to cars, and I've been browsing/looking/researching for the past 6 months but finally kicked into buy mode. My budget is around $15k, (plus minus depending on condition) so I'm looking for a car with more than 100k miles and in the 07-09 model year range (let's be realistic here). I won't buy a black or white car (sorry, needs to be a color).
Additional things; needs 4X4, prefer cloth seats (leather gets ugly after 10 years), need the 3rd row (but can buy on ebay if missing, I guess),...must be rust free (I'm located in SoCal, and I have a 50 year old car that doesn't have rust, so no Pennsylvanian rust buckets)
Not particular on engine size (can be the 5.3 or 6.0 or 6.2 or whatever).
But what else do I need to look for? Is there a package I should get or avoid?
