I've got a 1997 Tahoe with 197,000 miles. At times I'm rolling down the road thinking that I'll never part with this rig - and other times I think I'll just drive it into a lake!
Problems:
-Rear window does not open when I press the release hatch button unless someone is pulling on the window when someone else is pushing the button.
-The all to familiar hear/AC diverter issue - air blows about equally from all vents at the same time, with only a small difference when adjusting the controls.
-Cruise control no longer works - no big deal, just a bummer.
-Eats fuel pumps - replaced 3 now.

Pros:
- I love the size
- Miles per gallon isn't horrible compared to small trucks I've owned.

I'll post these issues in the correct forums, unless someone answer here first.

Thanks,
Brian

welcome to another OBS guy! It's love hate thing with the older ones. My wife even loves the OBS vs. NBS and NNBS trucks. Got her a suburban....she won't drive so now I have two trucks!

On the HVAC system...are you saying you can't divert the air or the fan speed doesn't change? If it's the fan the resistor is bad, if it is the diverter that is vaccum right?
