In the market for a NNBS

[NeverSatisfied]

Thinking about upgrading to a NNBS and was just wanting to know what I should be looking for during my search. Besides the obvious normal wear and tear is there any hidden problems that these trucks have or is it basically check the carfax and go from there? Like I said I'm thinking about it but not sure if I want to part with the Tahoe just yet lol. But let me here some of y'alls opinions on them and what I really need to keep an eye out for.

Thanks guys!

I just did the same move myself. Went from my 01 Tahoe to a 2009 Escalade Hybrid. I basically just did what you said and checked the vehicle out (CarFax, etc) before I bought it. So far no regrets, I'm love my Escalade. Now I just need to start figuring out all the mods I want to do.

I've had two NNBS's within the last year an 07 tahoe and an 07 Denali between the two aside from obvious carfax remarks here what I looked out for/encountered

- Non functioning backup camera
- Detached rear defroster cable
- EVAP canister leak requiring assembly replacement
- Broken door handles
- I've been lucky to avoid this one but cracked dashes
- Non functioning door speakers
- Broken tabs on tail lights

sure there are many other things to look out for those are the things I encountered/especially looked out for. Main things are that you have a clean carfax, no check engine lights (or are perfectly clear on what the CEL is for), and go an extra step and get an inspection before purchase

Found this for a decent price. I know it has a few miles but looks pretty clean and would be a nice change for me what do you guys think?

It's looks real clean, I would be worried about all those miles

 

[07Burb]

Those miles aren't bad if well maintained

It looks pretty well kept from pics need to see in person. This dealership isn't a huge one but is known for carry good used cars and trucks

 

[08grey]

Ask for the car fox

 

[07Burb]

If they can give you a service history that'd be a plus

 

[NeverSatisfied]

If I get a chance I will go look at it in person this weekend

I just wouldn't finance a vehicle that old. These trucks are tough, but far from bulletproof.

 

[07Burb]

I think the term "old" here must be a relative term LOL

 

[tsuintx]

Old, eh? Yeah, I guess it's "old" compared to a 2013 model.

Didn't see anything mentioned about financing it, either, but anyway...
