Probably both. Down here, 4x4s are rare and when you do find one they are usually raggedy and still command a premium.

Did you check any out yet?
Interesting. At least half of the nice looking (in the pictures) trucks I find here are 4x4 and I don't want a 4x4. I already have an Escalade for me and I was wanting a Tahoe for my wife to replace her SRX (we both like the look of the Tahoe) but the deal was that if I get a Tahoe its getting a 6.0L swap (mainly to delete the AFM and any oil consumption that's already there and because a 6.0L from a 2500 is half the cost of the 6.2L used) but by the time I buy a Tahoe and do that I could just buy a Denali or Escalade from the start and not have to do an engine swap and get the better leather, better sound deadening, etc. I do think a Tahoe with the big engine is cool and maybe if I already owned the Tahoe for a few years the value of swapping would be different.

Most of the 6.2 Tahoes are 4x4s but there is a 2WD currently for sale, maybe two. I also located two 2008s that were 2WD also.
GMC Denalis and the Escalade also came in 2WD variety, not as rare, but still have to look for them.
My own preference is to have the 4x4 capability and besides increased maintenance costs and a slight tow weight penalty, it does not appreciably reduce fuel economy numbers.
Don't NEED it but is nice to know it's there, especially for when my wife drives it. They're leaving for church in a few minutes and the roads are soaked and it's still raining, they're going to take the truck even if she'll kill the mileage and drain the tank! (My ankle/achilles is no good right now for walking)

I think it's a combination of them having the 6.2, but also that they are LTZ Trim, which was the top trim level which bumps the price up. I paid 22k for mine 2 years ago.

Current bid on the 1st one is $375.
No one bid on the 2nd one. Says Biohazard/chemical. When it only says Biohazard I think some body fluids, or someone died in it.

Hopefully those people are ok, wonder what caught fire in the dash of the 2nd one. If I had a house, I'd buy one of those just to have a extra drivetrain to build up.
That red one with black interior... it doesn’t even look that bad from the pictures.

The second does look like a dash fire. I just found that one through the owner, guess he doesn't have it anymore!
I googled again the VIN and it brought me to another page that lists 501 6.2 Tahoe 4x4s for 2009.
Ok, found 138 6.2 Tahoe 2WD for 2009 too.
Forgive my ignorance but do both of those have those Royal grills?
