Taupe color? Hard to tell from the pic. I have Pewter gray. If it’s a match color wise and size ( 63” UNcompressed), I’ll take it!

Def not pewter. I also have the pewter/grey interior, but I'm using a tan cargo cover--screw it!

I’m going to hold out for a Pewter/Gray one that’ll match my interior. Let me know if you run across any.

Thanks Tony for keeping an eye open...really appreciated.
But...that's the one I bought and sent back! It's maybe 63 1/2" compressed. Its 65-66" uncompressed.
What's needed for a Tahoe is 63" UNcompressed, so that you can snap it into place.
I'm still looking...

Found another one on eBay. 63” UNcompressed and in Pewter/ Grey! And supposedly in great condition! Expensive, but what the hell, they are so hard to find... I bought it!
It’ll get here by early next week.
If it works, I’ll let you know and snap a few pics!

The sunlight and this iPhone camera is doing weird things to the color of the interior in these pics for some reason... almost makes it look tan, light gray and whatever...but it’s all Pewter and it all matches!
I have that black liner for loading and unloading my equipment and for my dog! And I have this folding ramp to make it easier for my dog to get in and out!

Looks great, what did you pay? I had a black one, wish I never sold it.

Did anybody ever make these for the 2-doors?
I bet not, but you never know.

I'd like to know if one from a different model would work.

Yeah, whatever it takes. I've wondered about using a 4-door's, or a Suburban's; I don't know which one's shorter. I have no problem with trimming it to clear the spare tire.

158.00 plus shipping (18.00).
Way too expensive, but they are so hard to find for the Tahoes! Plenty out there for Suburbans tho!

Agreed, Suburbans much more common.

Here’s a re-cap of sorts, in case anyone else stumbles upon this in their search for a retractable cargo cover/ shade for their 00-06 Tahoe:
I read somewhere, maybe elsewhere on this forum?, that most of the Tahoe’s that came with 3rd row seats (like mine) didn’t get the cargo cover, because you can’t use the cargo cover if the seats are installed and up anyway. And I’m guessing that 3rd row seating was a pretty popular option! Moreso than the retractable cargo shade.
And I’ll bet the some of the ones that DID come with the cargo cover, didn’t use it much, removed it, and it’s stored away and forgotten in a garage or storage unit somewhere! Maybe got damaged and junked in the process! Or the kids used it on their “fort” LOL! That’s why they are so hard to find.
Still, lots available every day on eBay for Suburbans. Or the newer model trucks. And some sellers are getting wise to post the width measurements in the ad. That’s a good thing !

I'm really curious if a cargo cover from a different vehicle/manufacturer would work on an nbs Hoe.

This is an old post, but I'm having a brain fart on how to post a new question. Any help on this would be appreciated. I have a 13 Yukon xl. I found one on Ebay that's listed for mine, not concerned about the width. Says its right and for a non powered hatch. My question is how long is it? I 99% of the time leave my 3rd row tumbled forward.... Will that work? Any advice on posting a new question too, lol thanks in advance everyone.
Your vehicle has two mounting positions for the cover. One that puts it right behind the 3rd row when they are upright. The other puts it up behind the 2nd row seats. It will not fit there with 3rd row tumbled. They have to be flat or removed.
