Faults:

I have replaced the brakes and rotors 3 times since I have owned it, but mostly because I tow a lot with it to Florida and back. I have also replaced the fuel pump at 130,000. and right now I am replacing the head gasket because it started leaking antifreeze, also replaced the ball joints at 185,000 miles.

General Comments:

Other than those parts I have replaced I have had no problems with it. it drives straight as an arrow and wouldn't hesitate to travel with it even at 200,000 miles. I think that the Tahoe is a very good SUV, very comfortable to travel in and roomy. as for gas mileage I guess if you bought one you were not looking for a great gas mileage vehicle. I am proud to own a Chevy Tahoe.

Faults:

The head gasket had to be replaced right after we got it because it was leaking, but everything else has held up great.

General Comments:

This truck has been very reliable. It is very comfortable and has tremendous torque and power; it easily gets sideways if you stomp it.

The transmission shifts very crisply, and rarely needs to downshift. Tows our 24ft speedboat like it's not even there, and still returns 17mpg in the city. On the highway in overdrive, it gets about 24-25mpg. Not too bad for a 5200lb, 4 wheel drive, small-block powered SUV.

In the end this truck has served my family well, providing nothing less than GM's long lasting reputation for durable workhorses.

I will definitely look into buying another, and with such high resale values I could get a new one!

Don't be fooled by those American car haters who down these vehicles because they have v8's and don't get 30+ mpg. They don't know what they are talking about, and while their Highlander or Pathfinder is broken down on the side of the road, I'll just wave and say "Told ya so!" Those import trucks only get about 16-18 mpg in the city, they weigh less and only have V6's! My Tahoe can do that with a more powerful, bigger engine in a heavier and larger vehicle. All this with superior performance, quality and reliability.

I would have no trouble selling this vehicle with the amazing condition this truck is in, it will out-tow, out-run, and last longer than any of those six-cylinder wannabe trucks from Japan or Korea. I'm not downing those cars, because they are usually cheaper and have better warranties, but let me tell you, those vehicles will need those warranties. Not my Tahoe though!

Hope you go the Chevy route and support the American economy as well. You won't regret it, as every Chevrolet my family has been rock solid reliable with exceptional performance.

General Comments:

Good things about the truck: decent gas mileage along with decent performance, and a better than average tow vehicle. Also, the interior is very well laid out and comfortable. Performs very well in the off-road and is a very good looking vehicle. Other than that, this truck has been a major disappointment. It was one thing after another, non-stop for the three years I've owned it. I had to go out and buy an old pickup for transportation because I just couldn't rely on the Tahoe. I could go on and on about everything that's gone wrong with it, but it just depresses me because at one point, I really liked the truck a lot.
