Welcome to my build thread!
Bought my 02 Chevy Tahoe LT with Autoride back in January of 2020 from the second owner with 150.000 miles (now has 155.000 miles). Since I go to work by bike I do not drive it daily (also not economically viable in The Netherlands with gas prized around $7.81 per US gallon). But when I do drive it, its always with a big smile on my face!
Below some pictures how it is right now (14-aug-2020):
