Just bought an 08 Tahoe 109,000 miles ??

[cedarsales]

I just bought an O8 Tahoe 5.3 with 109000 Hyw miles for $16,500. I think I did alright as the truck is in excellent condition and runs like new. Should I be afraid of the miles? This is a 2nd owner truck.

Thanks

depends on who the first owner was, but i'm sure you'll be alright. decent price depending on the trim package?

if you bought it from a gm dealer have them run a service log , to check for warranty work. i would change all the fluids, check the plugs,filters and you should be good to go .
Note: i had a 2008 tahoe, w/about the same mileage. But i could Not pass up the good deal on a new 2012. **** luck

I wouldnt worry about it, as long as you checked it out real well it should last for a while. My stepmom has almost 225K on her suburban and it still tows two horses every week

Sorry to be a butthole, but should you not have asked this before you bought the truck?

I think you have really nothing to worry about though, just start changing all the fluids. These things last a lot longer than a lot of people think.

I see a lot of GMT900's in heavy duty service with over 200,000 miles on them. They are run hard and have and very few problems.

I have a little over 90k on mine and its running just as good as it did when it was new. I wouldnt trade it for the world.

As long as it was decently looked after by previous owner and you keep up w/maint you should be good. Don't let a little ****** turn into something big, fix them as they are needed and keep up your PM.

Bought my '07 at 95k and now has 112k with no major issues. (Although if I can't get the rear caliper bracket off to swap out rotors I may have to revise the "no issues" part)
