I have a lifted 2007 Tahoe Z71 with 60,000 miles and I've really been wanting to get back into a diesel just can't decide whether to keep the hoe or get a truck. I've only had it for maybe 2 years and I love it. Only thing is I do a lot of hunting an such an kinda need a truck but my father is talking bout giving me his lifted f150 so I'm kinda stuck. Thinking bout keeping the Tahoe until wheels fall off

Haha u can borrow it I wouldn't mind at all. I'm really wanting a 2012 dodge 2500 longhorn edition with 8" and 40s or a new f250 king ranch but think it would be smarter money wise to keep the hoe

Keep the Hoe unless you want to buy an older diesel. The new ones seem to get horrible mileage, plus egr and DEF.

Good looking Tahoe man. Weigh it out and see which one you would have more fun with. Tahoe is great all around but if you need a truck, then you need a truck. I've put deer in the back of my old Yukon before and WISHED I still had a truck at that time. A lot of Hunting = Truck.

Sharp Tahoe though. Tough decision!

Bad gas mileage? Haha my Tahoe gets like 12 so diesel def won't be worse. The new diesels get like 18 with lift and everything if u get the right stuff. I had a 2007 F250 with 8" lift an 38s an I really miss it cause it was so powerful an fun to drive

ACtually, if he is looking at a BRAND new King Ranch 250 then they get like 21mpg on the highway from the factory.

OP, you are talking about a HUGE difference in price! Your talking about maybe getting $30k at most for your tahoe and then buying a $65k+ truck (King Ranch 250). If you can afford that, then go for the diesel! Those new ones are bad, I have driven a couple and man are they fast for how big they are!

8" on 40s? Really? Necessary? TERRIBLE mileage, regardless of the diesel or not. Spending all that money right before going to school, I would rather save it and have a better time your freshmen year!
