NEW TO TAHOE PPV, looking to buy this week! Please advise!

[Matek]

Hey y'all! I am new to this forum and to the PPV tahoe. I am looking to purchase a 2014 ppv with 101k and 7500 hours on it. The current owner has all of the service records from day one. I want to get your opinion and insight on owning one of these trucks. I am interested in finding out more about the maintenance cost for one of these as well as things to check before buying.

Let me know what your experience has been with them and if you recommend I buy one. I currently drive an 06 diesel benz with 200+k on it that has been great however I am looking for a change in seat position and more room. I am really looking for cheaper maintenance costs decent reliability and longevity.

I test drove the truck and to my surprise it drives like a car in my opinion you don't feel like you're driving a massive truck. I enjoyed the ride height ,power and comfort. I don't know much about the 5.3 v8 that these come with or their 6spd trans. Thanks for all of your help in advance.

these are good trucks some of the information found here may be discouraging but a lot of the issue's discussed generally do not affect every truck just take it as a heads up and reference for things to be aware of going in. here is the link

If you like it do it. Any vehicle at 100k needs maintenance and the costs aren’t any more than other vehicles the 5.3 is bullet proof with millions of them out there. Take care of it and you’re good for another 100-150k. Post pictures when she’s yours.

I recently bought my first and am more than happy with it, like was said preventative maintenance and you'll get another 100k out of it, I say go for it and enjoy the room and entrance/exit height.

Did you end up buying the PPV? Didn't know the asking price.

Buying a PPV isn't for everyone. Myself, thought I would be saving money buying a PPV. Ended up trying to make mine look like a civilian Tahoe. Thousands of dollars later and now have to repaint my entire PPV due to the savages who took all the police badges off with a flathead screwdriver.

Anyway, these are great trucks. If you keep the PPV looks and just add the armrest/center console, you will have a nice Tahoe on the cheap. Just know the PPV's ride much harsher than the civilian versions.

Good advice!
