I think it is overpriced. The only way that they could approach that value would be a perfect vehicle body and interior with a COMPLETE detailed maintenance log and a brand new Hybrid battery recently installed. The buyer is still taking a big risk. As these units age the unique Hybrid parts required to keep it running are getting more scarce and expensive. Eventually any ownership these two mode hybrids will be phased out by simple economics. It is sad but inevitable................

Funny, the paint looks like a solid color, not spotted. LOL

I will take 10k for mine at 225k and will throw in a Texas Warranty......

Maybe it’s priced to enter a museum

for the west coast that's about what it's worth, we don't get the rust over here so vehicles generally last much longer and easier to maintain, even with gas engines they sell at that price and there usually gone within a few hours, if you see a 07 08 09 listed for $6-7k for more than a day over here then it's scam or it's sold already

Actually that’s a great point about the west coast.

There's no salt water spray on the west coast like there is on the gulf or east coast?

I have seen Caltrans trucks at gov. auctions with 300,000 to 400,000 miles on them - all 4.8l gm v8s Almost all highway miles, but still gave me mad respect for the 4.8s. Great little "get er done" motor - No AFM!

I’m pushing almost 300,000 miles, actually 297,000 but am going to have to finally replace some cells in the pack. She’s been a solid truck except for 2 stuck valves due to AFM or me missing an oil change. Would definitely buy a HyHoe again.

what year hybrid?

I have a retirement date set of October 15th 2021 and planning on keeping the ole beater TaHOe HyHOe going till then. She just turned over 228k and will be close to 300k then, if she makes it. I drive the chit out of this thing LOL. The technology is impressive and as stated by previous posters is very durable if properly maintained. Oil Change seems to be critical, I am using M1 with AC Declo oil filters and max 5k oil change intervals. Fingers crossed that she makes it to my retirement date, if she dies before then I will miss her LOL. Just will not play the same game as the lady out in CA that had a cat that was diagnosed with Luekemia. She spent 20k on treatments and then the stupid thing still DIED. Like Clint Eastwood said "Boy you got to know your limits"

Sorry, didn’t get back to the forum. It’s a 2010. Almost made 300,000 miles but ended up having to replace the traction battery. All in all, very satisfied with the Hy-Hoe except having to replace lifters due to AFM issues.

that is because GM screwed up the bolt tightness only hand tight at best
