Hi from Germany!

I am Falco and just bought a '99 Tahoe 5.7 Vortec 4 door and 4WD. I find this forum very helpful for my first steps of finding out what is wrong with my new purchase.

I will post another thread about what is currently wrong with my car. So here I would like to just say that I like German but also American cars a lot. Just recently I sold my '95 Caprice Station Wagon (the whale) which I also liked but as the Tahoe came along the way I decided to sell my Caprice. My son is 15 years old and we both like to work on our cars and our boat ('77 Glastron V184 with 5.7 Merc.).

About the Tahoe: it has 240 tkm on the clock and I bought it for just 3400 USD which is a quite a good bargain over here but idles quite rough and doesn't fire on all cylinders - still a nice car though. I am sure we will fix the problem, soon. Maybe with your guidance.

Have a good day and best whishes!

Falco

Welcome! It’s nice to hear from a fellow enthusiast in other parts of the world. There’s nothing better than sharing a passion like cars with your children.

Welcome to the Party.

There is a wealth of information and experience here. Good thing too, it parts for those ole Tahoe are affordable.

Cheers from the other side of the pond.

Welcome from Oregon, Falco. Since you named the station wagon The Whale I was wondering if you’ve named the Tahoe and if so what interesting name you decided on. :head3:

Greets Falco!

Welcome from California. That truck that will get you a lot of attention. Did you find any good options to improve the US spec headlamps?
