Welcome from Miami&Queens NY!

A Detective Tahoe is one of the best ones to get. Looks well maintained. Nice find!!

Yes cracked dash is extremely common in the 2007-2014 Tahoe's.

Thank you and I got extremely lucky with this truck for sure.
Is it common because of the build quality? I don't mind issues with aesthetics so long as the important things (motor, trans, etc) aren't crapping out.

The build quality on the 2014 Tahoe's were one of the best. Just the dash had issues. The 2007-2014 Tahoe all had that issue. IMHO the cracked dash was that they used cheap plastic.

BTW have friends in North Chesterfield Va. A lot of nice people there.

ah, would that be this?
Except for the rear. Here are the original PPV and consumer versions together. The aftermarket Drawtite hitch is below the spare.

That's a relief to hear and aligns with the research I did. The dealer I got this one from also had a 2015 with 115,000 miles, but the lifters were too loud, and my scanner was saying that the truck wasn't emissions-ready either.

North Chesterfield is nice, that whole Richmond area is

Thank you sir! I definitely will be participating across the forum, I'm pretty active on other forums for my two other Chevy's so I'm eager to contribute here.
