[@GregSplond]

I am really into the model before this the z71 but this one got me thinking. I miss coast 2 coast am but I have to turn in early nowadays. What is the miles on it or what miles are expected on a used cop car? Are they just thought of as beaters or can you keep it long term? Seems like a good situation other than it being 2wd.

[@alexb.1320]

@@GregSplond A used cop car is as good as the (maintenance) department they come from. Some are diligent about maintenance, some not so much. Like any used car assume it got beat to death, you ust got to inspect the vehicle like any used car. You can use them long term, I've got my old cop car almost 10 years now--usually you buy them as a beater, but they grow on you.

[@larry648]

I had a black slick top just like that as my take home car for 6 years when I was Chief. Our city motor pool did take good care of ours, well as good as you could for police and fire vehicles. We had GPS tracker service monitor plugged into the OBDII. My oil was changed, and tires rotated every 5k, and the car was inspected. Our fire rigs were strictly DOT, complete with inspection decals. Our city head mechanic (Chief of motor pool) was on it, PD, FD, parks, DPW, water. He probably saved us tens of thousands in vehicles. And I would still never buy a used one😂

In the vein of “how far we’ve come”… I constantly marvel over the comparison between my 1972 Suburban with a TH350, small block and Holley carb versus my 2003 Suburban with an EFI Gen 3 small block (5.3), electronically controlled overdrive transmission with lockup… both get 13 mpg.

I had that EXACT same truck. It started using a quart of oil every 500 miles. Ended up doing an AFM delete and it slowed it down to a quart every 1,500 miles and I got rid of it. Loved the handling, fun to drive for a big truck!

[@OlePorkchop]

Hey Dalton, just a friendly heads up. These 5.3s after about 2007 have cylinder deactivation (Active Fuel Management/Displacement on Demand) in them, and have a tendency for the lifters to go bad sometimes. Just something to watch for. Otherwise, it's a beaut, Clark!

[@Ocsilentbob]

unless you swap out the active injectors , not sure on programming tho . oh BTW police packages are not usually meant for towing fyi

[@ls3s30z4]

⁠@@Ocsilentbob it’s not the injectors. You change the lifter cam, valley cover and you need a tune to turn off all the afm bullshit.

[@johnnymccollum8698]

I towed for 3 years with a 290k mile police Suburban that is a retired prisoner transport. It did it, but it has a super steep gear that made acceration a huge challenge and was tricky at 70+ with a loaded car hauler. The Tahoe will be worse. Those sometime don't even have tow/haul mode on the shifter and the short wheel base will make it even more unstable. I retired it from tow duty when I bought an 8.1 Yukon that is far, far superior for towing. I still have the Suburban and it just rolled over 300K on the original engine and transmission. All highway miles and and 5600 hours, extremely low engine hours for a 300k mile vehicle.

[@kevinkocsis5537]

The police model doesn't have dod or afm

[@LSswapGarage1]

​​@kevinkocsis5537 Wrong... every single one of them does. Same LMG 5.3 that the civilian trucks have. If you want to argue with me go back when they have the alternator off it.. can see the veined VLOM valley cover all afm equipped engines have. If GM didn't have afm in it ,it would be a flat cover and a different rpo. The only iron block (all 2wd ppv Tahoes have the iron block LMG) Gen iv 5.3 that came without AFM in it was the LMF used in the 1500 series Express and Savanna vans.

PBG in a badge, Dalton! Either a star or a police badge! 👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@RedneckJesus513]

I actually daily a Tahoe from that same generation (the 07 LTZ in my profile pic). I've had it for 5 years and have put about 40k miles on it, and it's been a great truck for me. Common issues to know about are the coolant hose connectors that go into the firewall, and the oil pressure sensor. Neither are all that hard to replace, but can be really annyoing. Also, if it ends up needing an oil pan gasket, it should be a TON easier on that truck than it is on mine, because mine is 4WD. That being a PPV, it should be a 2WD, so the diff won't be in the way like it was when I did the pan gasket on mine. Enjoy the new truck, my friend!
