I'd talk him down a little bit since I hear Tahoes are cheap in Texas. But not a bad deal to me. Here's my list on what to check for:
Oil Cooler Lines
Check to see if it has the new style injectors
Intake leaks
MAF sensor
ABS system
Pitman Arm
Oil Quality

That's what would be more specific to that model and mileage. Somebody else may know more.

Sounds like a solid list to approach vehicle with! Thank you.. I got him down to 2700. He wont budge anymore tried 2500 he said he already turned that down.

This!^^^ Just use some use some con talk. Say I'll give you two grand cash right now, no questions asked. Also, well this is screwed up so it's gonna cost me whatever to fix it. Show up to look at it if he refuses your offer just walk away, done that a few times. They always stop you before you get back in your car and give you a better deal. Or say there is a better one in whatever town that has less mileage, cheaper price and less problems. Finally, just tell him, you know what this is a good amount of cash, think about all the stuff you can do with it. Hope that helps a lil bit.

Welcome to the forum partner.
Looks pretty descent from the pics. Ad mentioned ball joints and intake gasket being replaced but ask about the transmission. At 203K miles, it probably has been rebuilt/replaced but make sure.
If you can get it under $2500, it'll be a good deal.
Good hunting!

Peace.

Getting it monday for 2500 flat.

Haha I guess it doesn't always work. It took me almost an hour to talk the guy down $300 on my Tahoe and that was after I already talked him down to $500 lol

Nice yea I showed 1300 cash and he wanted like 1600. There was no profit so I left. It needed clear coat work and had illegal tint. Tried to use those as excuses but he didn't budge. Not my problem I bought another car and flipped it and made profit so didn't sweat it

 

[96tahoeby]

Just waiting on the okay from this guy and I hope by this evening im in a 2 dr like have been wanting dor awhile.

That sucks, thought you guys had an agreement for Monday......
Oh well, good luck with the other one!

No that guy was shady so I juat went out and bought a 1996 silverado. Down here people wanting way to much. I saw a guy asking 4995 for a 2 door with 280, 000 miles. I asked what his bottom dollar was, he said 4500. If I cant get that I will keep it. I said no thanks.
