Default 2005 Tahoe

I just purchased a 2005 Tahoe. But do not know if it is a LS or a LT. How do I find outwhat trim package is on this Tahoe? The only emblem that I see is on the rear lift gate and just says Tahoe.

If im not mistaken, if your door handles are same color as the car then its a LT, if they are black plastic then a LS. Also LS models dont have a center console. Correct me if I'm wrong I'm going by the new style model Tahoe and their features and Im assuming the older tahoes are the same. There are other features too such as fog lights.

I have center console on the floor and overhead. The door handles are black just like my Tahoe.
I was thinking that my title would tell me, but it also just shows it as Tahoe.

Someone on here is bound to know, but providing your VIN to your local Chevy dealer may be the quickest...

I have been told by the dealer that I have a Tahoe Fleet.
So I guess i will start looking up the RPO codes.

BTW, Welcome to the Tahoe forum. Did they quit putting the emblem on the C pillar that says LS or LT?
