Tahoe & Suburban The power, space, and brutal towing ability make the Tahoe and its longer sibling, the Suburban, arguably the best full size SUV's on the market today.

Platform: GMT 400, 800, 900

Any changes made to the Suburban between the '09-10 model years?

More than likely an '09

Leather

Would prefer 60k miles or less (though that may be asking a bit much for an '09)

Gonna skip out on the DVD player and Nav system, we already have those (portable ones anyway)

We'll pay no more than $30k

MUST have 4wD that can be turned on and off via a switch

We'll just stick with the stock wheel size (we're not the kind of people that "pimp out" 4WD SUVs, makes them look stupid and purposeless IMO)


Don't take this as an offer at the moment, we as a family are still ironing out all the details as to what exactly we want (imagine the debate over the color )

I honestly don't know how it's gonna play out, we might buy next week, next month, or even next year.

Default wheels / nav

The head unit with NAV is actually nicer than portable units on the dash.

I'd need a bluetooth speaker phone unit, a GPS unit, and an XM unit all mucking up the dash to get the same functionality as the GM head unit. My dad just bought a new vehicle without nav. You never know when you need it. We were visiting family just left of the middle of god forsaken no where and there was a bridge out that no one told us about... the nav had us back on the way home within minutes...

Also, the Tahoe comes with 20s (LTZ) and optional on LT/LS.

They look quite nice, but I agree that many people tend to overdo it on the wheels.

I'm not ghettofabouls enough to pull off 26s... so I'm on the stock 20s.

the Z71 has "off road" 18s.

the smallest wheels are 17 stock.

When I wear out this set of tires, I'm considering the GM 22s for the Tahoe. they are 22s, and look nice (to me anyway) large, without being too flashy /etc
