Vehicle purchase help (Tahoe/Suburban)

I think I might be the only person on the planet that parks 3 vehicles in a 3-car garage. Granted, being oversized helps, but that's my daughter's Escape, my Suburban, and my crew cab Sierra Denali.

Upside - while I've never done any type of rust preventative, the Suburban's frame is still mostly black and it has zero body rust. It's an 08 with 250k miles, and has spent its entire life in MI and IN. But it's been garaged religiously for the 11 years I've owned it.

a tahoe is useless unless you are single and take the 3rd row out, don't expect to haul more than 2 kids around, may as well just have a car.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm probably going to go with the Suburban. The vehicle is in great condition, however with roughly 130k, what immediate maintenance should be done? (plugs, coils, etc?) Someone had also recommended in higher mileage suburban's adding 1qt of Lucas oil stabilizer each oil change? Never used that product but looks promising.
