1997 Chevrolet Tahoe LS 1500 4X4 review from North America

"An all purpose SUV"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

I bought the truck used. The owner before me must have treated it with no respect. We got the truck for a great price and also got an extended warranty. After a couple of weeks, I notice there was a little mis in the engine. It would only mis if you were putting a load on the engine. So I took it to the dealer and they replaced the head gasket and replaced 7 out of the 8 fuel injectors. Wow what difference that made. They also replaced the rear main seal and did some major work on the rear brakes. Other than that nothing major has gone wrong.

General comments?

This is by far the best truck I have ever owned. Its spacious, comfortable, strong, and powerful. Its great for off roading or in the snow. Its also great for towing. I have 22 foot travel trailer and it has no problem keeping up with everyone else. I don't know why GM took away that 5.7 liter Vortex. The newer 5.3 doesent seem to have the grunt the 5.7 had. The only downside is gas. About 15 at best. About 9 to 12 towing. If you are looking for a used SUV, I would recommend buying a Tahoe. The 97 Tahoe was also MOTOR TREND'S truck of the year.
