New to the Tahoe World

[Jdudley13]

Whats going on everyone. New guy from Atlatna, Ga. I currently have someone looking for an '06 Tahoe LT2, moving over to the SUV world for the first time. Currently in the process of selling my lightly modded 2004 BMW 330i. I've loved having cars but I really look forward to having a truck. I've been looking at a lot of pictures and reading as many posts as possible, I'm looking forward to digging in and getting started.

As i'm out looking, any suggestions or warnings prior to purchase?

Thanks,

Jonathan

05+ come with the electric fans from the factory so thats one less mod, I would definately try to get a 5.3 vs the 4.8 and after that go balls out

+1 on going for the 5.3 over the 4.8. Aside from that no real warnings from me. My 01 is still going strong with 91k on the clock.

That's great news guys, I appreciate it.

The 5.3 only comes in the Z71, correct or incorrect?

What kind of a fuel mileage difference will i notice between the two, this will be my daily as well.

5.3 comes with all packages. LS, LT, Z71.

But i do believe the Z71's only come with 5.3.

Mines a potent lil 4.8 and it suprises many. But if I had to buy again, it would be 5.3 at minimum. But I bought this one about 3 years ago, with 60K on it, SLT with leather, etc and the color I wanted, so other than the 4.8, I was stoked.
