In search of a 2 door Tahoe LT...

[Reeza]

Figured I would try the forums so thank you in advance. Been searching for a clean low mileage (sub-100k) 2 door 4x4 Tahoe LT with tailgate. Willing to pay up for the right one. Have lost out on a couple on the auction sites and have had no luck with online sites. Thought it may be best to ask the community forums. If anyone has any leads or may be thinking about selling, please let me know! Thank you!

Thank you for passing along! The cars & bids Tahoe is just a bit too much mileage. I def realize I might be looking for a needle in a haystack when it comes to sun-100k!

As for the PNW one, I actually never realized they made the 2 door Tahoe with square lights, but I prefer the rectangular ones.

Please let me know if anything else pops up on anyone’s radar! Thank you again!

Why a two door? Most of my cars have been four doors. The Sebring I just sold was my only recent two door and that's one of the reasons. It was near impossible to load anything in the back seat and ever harder to get stuff out of.

Four on this is real easy to put groceries or whatever else in the back. The extra two rear (barn) doors makes it even easier to get to pretty much anywhere with little effort. That was my problem during the hunt and one reason I bought from so far away. I couldn't find one in decent condition that had the rear barn doors.

That 2 door with the square glass headlamps is odd. Finding a 2door or a 4 door with sub 100k is going to be tough and expensive. I've accepted the fact that under 150k is a real find any more. Rust is the enemy that wins more than mechanical issues which are all fixable.

Just love the design. Remember wanting the 2 door Blazers in high school that preceeded this model in the early 90s. I'll be riding solo mostly. If my kids join, they'll just have to contort their way to the back seat! If I could, I would ideally have the bench seat up front but figured I've got to limit the rarity of what I am looking for. Seems these clean ones with sub-100k mileage are in the $25-$30k range. At least that's what I've seen on the auction sites. I'm willing to pay up if it checks the boxes. There was a local one (I am in southern california) 1997, blue LT, z71, with 55k miles. He wanted $39k!! Not gonna lie...was tempted but it was early in my search and he wasn't willing to budge. The search continues!

Why a 2 door??? Because they are a lot cooler looking than a 4 door! Also they are shorter and depending on where you go much easier to turn around in the woods and on trails. I've owned both and if all you want is utility a 4 door Tahoe or Suburban with barn doors are good. I come from the age of 2 door cars, not today when everyone is driving grandmas car with 4 doors.

I think you're selling yourself short on the mileage. these things are solid compared to newer trucks afm issues and stuff. my 2 door has over 300k on it, rust free and interior is in good shape. I did have to get it painted a few years back, it's black and the oem paint finally started to crack and I didn't want it to rust.

as said above, watch for rust and body in good shape. mechanical stuff is eazy, plus you'll. want to upgrade most of that anyways.

I'm beginning to realize this more and more reading through this forum. I think the mileage is more a function of having a clean interior but it seems refinishing the interior if need be is an easy fix. And maybe I look for cloth which seems to hold up better than the leather in these.
