Looking for a Tahoe

[LouieTheSecond]

I am new to this forum and currently have a 2003 cts. I am very interested in purchasing a tahoe. Something around the year 2002 to 2003. What should I be looking out for? I am also interested in slamming it so what would be the best one to purchase? What price should I be looking at? Thank you all and I appreciate it!

00-02 have the older style interior like this (random google search)

and 03-06 have this style

Depends on what you like (prolly wanna go with 03 if you could-obviously less likely to have as many miles on it)

BTW
OBS(Old Body Style) 1991-1999
NBS(New Body Style) 2000-2006
NNBS(New New Body Style) 2007+

People use these abbreviations on the forum a lot so just in case you didnt know... there it is. Took me a bit to figure this out.

Hey thanks for those pics. Ya liking the 03 more. I am more looking for the 03 right now, but not really sure what I should be paying for them.

i have a '03 and i payed $10,500 for it with 72,000 miles

Well I paid $10,000 for mine plus tax which came out to like $10900 or something
and that was for an 02 Tahoe with 118000 miles on it. That should give you a point to work around. but they can vary from area to area. just wait til you get more comments on here and you can start narrowing it down. some people get really good deals and some people dont. its the nature of the beast.

[ROBERTOcritser]

$2200 wheels and tires package deal SHIPPED from Ohio to KY. National Dealer called RT Tire. They have A LOT of wheels. I actually started by calling the manufacturer of the wheel (U2) then they gave me a number then they gave me a vendor's number which was RT Tire.

Depending on mileage and type of dealership (small no credit check type dealership or larger dealership), I've seen 'em anywhere from $8k - $16K range for the 00-06 body style.
How do you like your CTS? I have about 70K on mine now with no problems and still lovin' it.
Welcome to the site, btw
