I dig the truck. Love the PPV's aggressive look.
September 11, 2016: Just wanted to weigh in on my one month of 08 PPV ownership. I love the truck. I'd been crushing on the PPV for months from seeing law enforcement driving them around. I wasn't interested in owning any other trim level. Black, white and gray are the usual colors. I was looking a getting a black one until I saw this one on e-Bay.

35 people were watching it but it was going to be mine. So I won the auction, flew from SC to Chicago, made the purchase and drove back to Knoxville TN on the same day. Made it back home to SC early the next day. The car ran flawlessly. Not sure what kind of mileage I got. It doesn't have the DIC, and I didn't calculate it. I probably got 19-21 MPG.
It looks aggressive with the OEM 17s and steelies. I may leave them on. It turns heads everywhere especially when cleaned up. I'm thinking about some black 24 concave rims, which would completely transform the car's look. I discovered some rust on the roof but I've already had it repaired and the roof repainted.
Excellent power, handling and outstanding brakes in addition to looks. Today, I changed the oil, removed the 50 lb. pushbar from the front (that I may actually replace) and took it for a test drive. There was a Lexus GS 350 taking the on ramp to I-26 E in a spirited fashion. I wanted to see itf I could hang with it. The driver had to be a bit concerned to see a Tahoe NOT fading behind in the rear view mirror. At that point, I said "I love this truck."
It's not a normal Tahoe by a long shot I look forward to many miles of service and fun in this truck.
