I bought a brand new ‘97 2 door Tahoe LT Z71, red with gray just like this one. I drove it off the showroom floor and it’s parked in my driveway. Other than maintenance and some minor repairs it still runs and drives like new. I will never part with it and I still get thumbs ups all the time. Currently has 110k miles.

[@RICORECONREDO]

you have averaged 11.3 miles per day driving her over the past 27 years ...you must have another couple rigs?

[@MuahMan]

Then I'm over here with a 2020 Camry I drove off the showroom floor with 167K miles on it. You just never drive dood.

[@robertaBooey69]

Maybe if you drove your car it would break down. Since as the guys math states you didn’t drive it at all. 4,000 miles a year is a quarter of what normal drivers do.

[@barrydraper]

Back in the day, I worked at one of the multiple locations where these were made, Flint Truck Assembly. These were truly amazing vehicles, built to last virtually forever. They were great for towing, 4X4, road trips and just hauling the family around. They could be optioned out, in a luxury type package, often nicknamed the "Texas Cadillac". Many of these were built as commercial or government vehicles. In answer to your question: No, you did not overpay for this particular vehicle. Great find!!!

[@SQLRYAN]

I bought a 2-door 97 Tahoe in 2000 with 40K miles. She now has 320K miles, still my daily driver. Few people come up and ask me if I wanted to sell it. No way Jose. This one is a keeper.

[@edenc.m4576]

Exactly. They’re pretty easy to fix too.

[@mabeljoe4305]

too bad Chevy did not keep the Blazer name for the 2-Door Tahoe.

[@mrtopcat2]

I have a 99, which I bought in 2000 with the exact same maxed out package than shown here. Mine has slightly over 150k and it is a keeper as well. It used to be my weekly driver (once a week commute), until it’s current semi-retirement. I am the only mechanic of the vehicle with a very nicely equipped home garage. Keep adding any special tools that are needed. Still, I went through a lot of repairs already. 98-99 has pass-lock and PWM-TCC, both of which slightly complicates things and both of which already failed on me.

[@LandonJP07]

320k! My 1999 has 218k, I hope she’ll get to those numbers, with nothing major, it’s my first vehicle, will never sell it, even if I don’t daily it anymore in the future, I’m gonna keep it going. Maybe pass it down.

I just picked up a 97 Tahoe for $2400. I'm up north so it has a little bit of rust on it but not bad. It's all still fixable and I plan on just doing that. The frame is still really clean. It has 220,000 miles on it but drives awesome. Transmission was just rebuit 20k miles ago and oil pressure is still really good. Doesn't burn oil or leak. I just reuphosltered both front seats and added heated seat to it. It was really taken care of. It's a 4x4 and everything works. My kids and wife love it. We have a 08 cadillac escalade esv and they like the tahoe better lol.

[@weegeemike]

Great purchase guys. Cant go wrong with a GMT400. There are several of this generation of trucks with the TBI 350/5.7 with over 1 million miles on them. My dad has a 1990 C1500 pickup with over 660k mi on the original, untouched, non-rebuilt engine. These are definitely what they were advertised as: the longest lasting, most reliable trucks on the road. Cant go wrong with one of these, especially with the 350/5.7. Beautiful, timeless looks these have as well. My mom had a '99 Yukon that was very similar to this, cargo doors ("barn doors") and all.

Man, you're letting out all the secrets.

I've been seeing decently good ones for $3500-$5000 all over. These trucks seem like they'll outlive anything built in the past decade!

[@ravemaster7405]

And even when they do break down they're dirt cheap to fix and easy to fix on your own and parts are cheap. I just got a 92 2 door yukon for 3500 bucks and the previous owner just put a brand new motor and radiator and all new hoses and fuel lines and fuel pump in it. It's in mint condition. looks like it just rolled off the assembly line other than 1 missing wheel center cap and peeling clearcoat.

[@COChevyTrainMan1990]

9k for this beautiful condition Tahoe is definitely worth the price with how low the mileage is. Great find. At the time this generation of Tahoe was around, I was riding in my mom’s 94’ ford EXPLOder and I really hated it. Really wished she had this truck and not the pile of junk Ford built for the time. This generation of GM trucks will definitely outlast the really junky Expedition and Land Cruiser for its time for miles. Way more reliable. Hope to see more videos of this Tahoe in the future. Great job, TFL crew.

[@ChrisAlvarezAlvarezImaging]

Owned a '99 for 8 years, right there in Denver (Parker) Co. She was great, but definitely had all the "standard" Tahoe issues, fuel pump intermittent operation, wiper motor failure, Power steering pump. But I wish I still had her.

My dad bought a 98 Tahoe new, has almost 200k miles. Always serviced at the dealer. Used to transport my brother and I around in it all the time. He still owns it, having trouble letting it go for his "final car" purchase. Beautiful blue color with some 2000's style aftermarket wheels. Needs new bushings and probably a motor if it's going to be "perfect" again. I've been egging him on to pass it my way whenever it's time... but who knows when that will happen haha

[@averagehorsepowerhut9421]

I knew you guys would be back to a GMT400 soon enough. Let's see you get after it (Moab, et al.) with this one in stock form. That G80 has got you covered. With respect to price, nicely done. In Nov '23 I purchased a '95 K1500 Suburban LT (4wd, 5.7l TBI, 3.73s, G80, factory skids) with 220k mi on the clock for $2900. It was nowhere near as clean as yours, used as the forgotten family hauler by just one family its whole life here in northern CA. It just keeps chugging along with no fanfare even though all the PO ever did was oil changes and random water pumps. I've just been having fun with it doing all sorts of long forgotten maintenance like full OEM suspension and steering, cleaning, fixing power windows, locks, etc. You are correct: I've been using Autozone for all my parts. Amazing what's available and for how cheap. Even though every single part is cheap, I've now got a total of $8230 (incl purchase price) according to my spreadsheet (geek alert!). Nice score on your part and I'll just keep increasing my "investment" in mine because at $20/job, this has been just too fun to stop now (cheap as hobbies go). I'll bet your rear window actually goes down all the way. I'm guessing your door lock actuator is also broken (or latch perhaps) on that same door. Mine did what yours was doing. Once I got in the door I saw the actuator was blocking the path of the glass. Fixed that and boom - window goes all the way down (or could be a transition year thing: 95s being the last year they went all the way down?). Let's see more GMT400 content.

Someone else has probably already said this but the optional rear door was a lift glass / tailgate set up. With that set up, you had a lift glass which was convenient to drop in light packages and such along with a tailgate. Each set up had their benefits and drawbacks….

I spent a good chunk of my childhood and teenage years in my dad's '99. And got to drive it the last few years of its life until the frame rusted through at 288k. The drivetrain was still in good operating condition. The only things I remember being issues was the fuel pump being notorious for burning out, especially when run low on gas, and the rear drums regularly backing out of adjustment. Causing the front disks to have a shortend lifespan. Our solution between tire rotations was to reverse it at walking speed and slamming the brakes to get the adjusters to set.

I recently made a video about how I feel that these are future collectibles and then here's tfl classics with a similar video so I guess I was right. I think you guys did really good on this purchase. I think yours would bring 17-18k on bring a trailer....

[@jreyman]

If you don't want the split in the rear window find a lift-gate version. If you're tall (like me), you'll love the "barn doors," like those on the Tahoe in this video. Lift-gates are my nemesis, as I either hit my head, or I'm hunched over while accessing the cargo area, and I find them very annoying, unlike the "barn doors" option on the "square-body," GMT-400, and GMT-800 versions of the Suburban, Tahoe, Yukon/Yukon XL, and also on some Escalade's.

I had a '96 GMC 1500 SLE 4WD pickup that I bought used with 30K miles and put almost another 100K on it. I traded it for a 3/4 ton truck in 2012, but I wish now that I would have kept it. It was very comfortable. The truck was not trouble-free, though. Its most serious failure was a broken front axle that cratered while I was driving down the highway in 2WD. It was determined that the axle was defective from the factory, and the axle metal was crystalized. Mine was unusual in that it had the 6.5L diesel V8, a pretty rare option on the 1/2 ton pickup. Unlike the 5.7L gas V8, the 6.5 diesel would get 17.5 to 19.5 mpg, pretty much no matter how one would drive it. For most of the years that I drove that truck, diesel fuel was also less expensive than gasoline.

I drove the suburban version of this car all the things y’all were showing brings back memories of road tripping.

If you want the rear door windows to open all the way, get a Suburban/Yukon XL/Escalade EXT. You'll also get 14" of additional wheelbase, and a bit more cargo space.

I was 15 when this model came out. I remember how good it looked then. And it looks just as good now.

Bro $9k is a great deal! That one is in great condition and relatively low miles!!! Good job!

[@brianhurley8617]

Not Chevy guy, but I really enjoyed the throw back feelings the video brought back. Thx!

We had a 1997 Tahoe. One of the vehicles I have some regret about selling. Our Tahoe had the other rear door option. A lift glass and a tailgate.

[@sayulitalyfe5299]

Bought a 1996 Tahoe 2dr vortex v8, flip down tailgate. Drove it 353,000 miles w just regular maintenance. Engine died replaced w crate factory new one, month later og transmission went out replaced w brand new crate and still have it today.

[@haydenbierig8997]

That's a good price! I've got a 96 2door yukon with the 6.5td and absolutely love it.

[@Andydaman23]

Holy you got a rare bird ! Nice 👍🏼

[@wicky383]

I had a 98 Silverado K1500 Red just like this one. Loved that truck but the rust took it's toll.

[@user-yj1py2jw1i]

You seem to find the really great cars the Honda you showed was brand new old Honda & now this one wow 👌

[@timmcpeck2764]

Nice find guys, the price was appropriate for the condition that it is in. Great video.

My dads 99 suburban up until he got rid of it last year because of it rusting away was decently reliable, the 2nd row glass in that opened all the way down

[@npsit1]

My 1992 suburban has almost 300k miles on it now. Original engine, though. It's been around. It's easy to fix and relatively cheap. Totally reliable. That Tahoe is super clean, though.

[@dewdew34]

Same interiors as the Silverado had, prefer the cloth though. Many late nights hauling horses, those visor lights kept me awake. Tip, if you get the nods some light in your eyes does wonders. Darkness promotes sleep. My 96 2500 had 300k when i retired it, original motor/tran. Still runs great for my nephew. ABS stunk on these, otherwise great vehicles.

In that good of condition, I don't think you overpaid for that Tahoe. I have a 99 GMC Suburban that was not well loved before I got it. It had 165k miles on it, had so many hail dents, it looked like a golf ball and blew the engine at 174k miles. $6500 later for a Jasper engine swap, and 12 years later, it's still running although it is need of a transmission swap. An SLT model, I wish it had the Chevy seats and you are right on the door handles (I've replaced 5 of them). It has many issues, but I drive it daily and still love it. I've even pulled a semi out of a sand trap with it.

Very clean, super condition, great buy guys!
