Sounds like a pretty good deal. I got mine for a steal! Paid $29200, fully loaded LTZ 26k miles 2wd, one owner, no paintwork, clean carfax.

Yes, but yours is an LTZ. A vast difference between that and a 1LT priced at 28k or whatever it is.

I keep seeing Carfax mentioned in threads of this sort. You guys and girls do realize how unreliable Carfax really is? Not everybody reports everything to Carfax. Especially body shops. A Tahoe can have $15,000 in crash damage, be repaired, and still have clean title without Carfax knowing a thing about it.

Carfax is nothing more than a false sense of security.

Anybody want to buy my 4X4 Explorer? It has a spotless Carfax. But it has had bodywork done on it three times in the last 3 years. First, my daughter backed into a neighbor's truck, damages the rear bumper and liftgate. Second time my wife slipped on ice and bounced off a dogwood tree.... front bumper, hood and grille damage. The third time, the paint on the roof was peeling, had to do a total repaint on the roof in April of this year.

How is that for a clean Carfax?
