New in Arizona

Hi everyone. I have never had the pleasure of owning a Tahoe, but I finally got my first one. I am ex-military and as the title states, from Arizona. Here it is...Big plans for it.

Haha yeah the rocking horse. We didn't get to have awesome sandrails and ride quads into battle, but we did pretty much everything else lol. Definitely not BC PSD either. The battalion commander pulled people from every company/platoon to make up his own PSD platoon. So us scouts had our own mission.

Thank you. Nice, I've been there a few times when I was stationed near there. Loved it.

Hello I'm from Arizona too, in casa grande also i just got my first 2007 Yukon xl Denali about a month ago. Oh and I read that someone wants to lose the running boards, I don't blame you they don't look very good but mine when I bought it had the power step installed on it, I love them and you can barely see them, and actually I didn't even know they were on the truck when I was looking at pictures and reading the description from the used car place
