Well, not new, but new to me. I've had a lot of Chevy trucks, this is my first Tahoe. Previously had a 1992 2-door Yukon and a 2000 Sierra Z71. I also currently own a 2005 Trailblazer, 1986 S-10 Blazer (my first car, can't get rid of it), 1998 S-10 Blazer (for sale!) and a 2000 Silverado 2500 (for sale soon, probably) so I like Chevy trucks. :)

My Silverado has 265k miles and was my daily driver and was having some issues, so we went out and bought a 2005 Tahoe with 86k miles on it. It is really nice and runs and drives amazing. Body is pretty mint and the interior is perfect other than a lot of bulbs being out.

Of course, on Wednesday after about one week of owning it some guy pulled out in front of me. I managed to avoid hitting him but jumped the ditch and bent my front bumper. The guy was really nice and stopped and agreed to pay for it. I picked up all the parts and will be fixing it up tomorrow.

Well, got the front bumper repaired, got a good deal on some Z71 stuff for the same price as the Tahoe replacements. Haven't wired up the fog lights yet, but will soon. I also installed my new trailer hitch and brake controller and mounted the trailer plug in the bumper.

My shop is full of cars so I had to work in the rain the yard. :roflsquared:
