How Much Did My Z71 Tahoe Cost to Build and Whats Next

[@lewisgeer5830]

Definitely got to say that I am disappointed that you’re selling it. Its what brought me to your channel😕

[@TWAMotorsports]

Sorry. There will be a replacement at some point

[@lewisgeer5830]

TWA Motorsports So does this meen that you will be buying some other type of 4x4 winter beater for next winter?

[@TWAMotorsports]

It sure does.

[@LILjojo805]

Same lol only subscribed for this specific truck lol great videos tho

[@kylemoran4699]

Can we have a moment of silence for the Tahoe? Hate to see it go, but I knew it was coming. Keep up the great videos.

[@TWAMotorsports]

Thank you

[@jodyries3851]

You rock man...you actually do the work...very in depth and informative. You also live in the same world as us common folk....no ultra expensive builds that most couldn't even dream of doing. You are on my short list along with Dillon Mccool, Vice grips garage, Saabkyle04, and of course Goonzquad. To me you are all the best...good quality entertainment....honest hard working guys that don't try and pull the wool over our eyes...like certain tubers (AAR) that do hardly any of their own work and brag about how much money they get from KZbin while throwing a bunch of money at rolling heaps and losing money on the resale. Keep up the good (honest) work and know that your subscribers love this channel!!!

[@TWAMotorsports]

Thank you for that comment. I know people want me to keep them all but have to move on at some point. I will have more projects

[@Joenz-cv9zq]

got my denali for 2k at 195k miles. steal of the century. i love these trucks

[@TWAMotorsports]

That is a great deal

[@larry3253]

2001 Tahoe LS we put a supercharger on it with only a hundred and fifteen thousand miles the old lady had every oil change on record no rust we put 24's on it lowered it MagnaFlow extreme headers bigger brake calipers drilled slotted much more just a great vehicle in all great videos brother

[@TWAMotorsports]

That sounds fun to drive. Thank you

[@jodycorbitt8671]

I came to the channel for the Tahoe! But I’ll probably stay to see what you get next. 😊 I like the older stuff that’s reliable & cheaper to work on. Definitely enjoy the content. Just don’t leave anything alone & keep making videos!

[@TWAMotorsports]

I think several did. I will replace it I'm sure. I have been looking like crazy.

[@405ruben]

Crazy how a lot of people are saying the Tahoe is what brought them to your channel, I remember when you were working on your Sierra that’s what brought me and a lot of others. Hopefully on your next purchase it will bring even more viewers 👌🏽

[@TWAMotorsports]

Thank you. I like a little of everything

[@e.valenz6672]

I finally found a channel with all the mods that I wanted done to my 04 Z71 Tahoe, love all the work you’ve done but kind of sad you got rid of the Tahoe. I subscribed to your channel for the Tahoe videos but I will hang around to see what kind of project you decide to take on. Great videos.

[@TWAMotorsports]

Thank you. Cars come and go here.

[@b00nd0cksa1nt1979]

Loved this series bro. I got a 06 Escalade esv. And i love SUVs .can't wait to see what's next.

[@TWAMotorsports]

Thank you. I will do another suv at some point

[@FrostyAMG]

Buy it, restore/mod it over a few months, then sell it ... nothing wrong with that! Gives new content for the channel and keeps things interesting :-)

[@TWAMotorsports]

Exactly. Buy a cheap, cool, easy to mod project.

[@ozzyrodriguez9282]

You got a good eye when it comes to customizing vehicles that's how I am I can't leave anything alone either

[@TWAMotorsports]

Thank you. I know it's a sickness

[@mikermilla]

I can’t ride stock in any vehicle I own. My 2000.5 Z71 was lifted a total of 7” and my 05 TB was lowered 5”/7” and turned into a TBSS clone. Those have been gone for a while and now I’m looking for a GMT800. If it’s a Tahoe I’ll lower it, if it’s a ‘Burb I’ll prob drop it slightly and go with an overland vibe. I know what you’re thinking..’a lowered overland build?’ Yeah. I won’t be stump jumpin, the main use of my 4WD is in the snow. Plus, I know I can make it look sick along with unique. Your old Tahoe looked great! I also love clean, white cars.

[@TWAMotorsports]

Thank you. I pretty much lower everything lol

[@brandonbarnwell7992]

Love the 20” gmc wheels on the Tahoe 😍

[@TWAMotorsports]

[@B2stunt1]

The tahoe brought me here. I have a 2005. Love your set up. Do a video on your car lift. That is my next move.

[@TWAMotorsports]

I did a video on my lift a while back.

[@bretjackson300]

Easy come easy go. I'd like to see a 2007 and up tahoe again that's what brought me to your channel. Keep on doing cool stuff that's all that matters to me.

[@TWAMotorsports]

Very true. I will do another 07 up at some point

[@Shipleyt19]

I’ll miss the Tahoe but I understand! Nice to know you have integrity, you fix these cars right.

[@TWAMotorsports]

Thank you. Fix up and sell and repeat.

[@backyardbuiltcustoms6946]

"I cant leave anything alone" lmao bro i felt that ! Another good video 👍 . Idk if you remember my black tahoe but i think you should build one like that

[@TWAMotorsports]

Yeah I have a problem with leaving things stock.

[@shaneeddings883]

Thoughts on the torsion bar issue. First, I would come up with a method to hold tension on the top of the torsion bar key. The noise is the key rising and loosing contact with the adjusting bolt. Second, from what i have seen, the best way to find a clean Tahoe/Yukon of that generation is to buy a Z71 model. Just some thoughts I had. love the channel!

[@TWAMotorsports]

Thank you

[@adrianr8486]

It came out good, looks clean. I just got an 08 tahoe with 139k miles for 7800. Very little rust but I want to add a radio, put some new headlights and leds, add a backup camera, just keep it clean and simple. I started noticing the infamous tick, but mechanic said not to worry you could barely hear it. So I'll take care of that later on next year, maybe add a cam little above stock. One door doesn't open so I need to fix that.

[@TWAMotorsports]

Thank you. Yeah little things take time

[@luismodesto7543]

Just bought my 03 Tahoe sport utility and has 171xxx miles and paid 5200 and with the market today I say I bought it for a pretty good price.

Damn hate to see this truck leave, it’s what brought me to yours and lsxmatt channel. I really enjoyed and looked forward to your guys video all the time, so much I bought one myself as a daily driver to hold me over till buy something else. Well I gotta say you did a tastefully well job on it for what it is, I’ve got the same wheels and new AT’s that I haven’t mounted, kinda like the lowered look after seeing yours lol. Only we know when it’s time for our cars to go and hopefully for the right reasons, good luck on your new project and I’ll stop by to check on your channel and show some love. 🍻

[@TWAMotorsports]

Thank you. It won't be my last tahoe. I have stuff I look at all the time.

[@jamesobert8972]

I'm the same. I can't leave anything alone. I dig the Tahoe and still think I might lower the Avalanche. Can't wait to see what's next

[@traeburkett7792]

I just bought a pretty clean 1997 chevy c1500. I gonna do a TWA motorsports restor on it.. hopefully this time next year it will be a brand new truck. Now I'm hopping I can find the patients to get it as clean as you get your trucks. Next week I'm hoping to start on changing the carpet and seats!!!
