Looking to buy 2010 Yukon with 130,000 for $7,000 good?

[Sir_Hiro]

I paid 6K for my Yukon with 110K on it..but it does have a fair bit of body rust. That being said. Check all fluids and make sure the trans fluid isnt burnt. I wouldnt be to worried with the 6l80E over the 4l60E

So turns out it was a 2011 Chevy Tahoe Lt, with 130,000 miles we got for $7200, and it has a stack of all service records. But we didn't notice it doesn't have a tow hitch to tow a trailer,can we get one on there and how much would that be possibly?also we don't have a center console there's that metal there and stuff would like to possibly see if we could get a center console in it,and see if we can get third row seats.upgrade the stereo.
Anyone have any tips to a new owner of one of these vehicles anything I can do to help it out or make it last longer.
Probably looking to remove the spot light on it too.are these good long lasting vehicles.i am not a super good car guy I no a little not enough.
Anyone has any insight on this vehicle,my wife says she wants more luxury and what not but we shall see??

Police Pursuit Tahoes do not come with trailer hitches.

This likely isn't that hard.
I'd prefer a 3rd seat, one that does a pretty good impression of a center console when folded down.

3.42 rear axle gear, unless you are interested in towing HEAVY, then 3.73.
ECM & TCM tune to turn off V4 mode, improve powertrain responsiveness, and extend transmission life.
265/70R17 (or 255/75R17) will make your wife happier in terms of cushy ride quality.

Congrats! Looks like you got a former police or gov’t vehicle. Play with the spotlight at night before you remove it. It’s been installed correctly.

As far as luxury goes, eBay is your catalog. 2011-14 Tahoe, Yukon & Escalade short wheelbase leather, heated and or ventilated seats and door cards are all options.

Sell the spotlight here to someone who'd like to be able to shine a light sideways in the dark without opening a window.

Oh the fun and trouble you could get into alerting other drivers that their headlamps are not adjusted correctly. In front and behind you.

Used to be a cabdriver. We mostly used spotlights to check addresses on doors, look for gaps in fences.
Sometimes we'd point 'em straight up at night to get other drivers' attention behind the dispatcher's back.
