Bought a 2002 Suburban 2.5 weeks ago with 188K on the clock. One owner, runs great! Was leaking a bit of coolant, replaced water pump today. Leaks a bit of oil...replaced valley gasket, oil cooler line block off plate gasket, and intake gaskets also. Will tackle weeping front timing cover when it warms up.

Picked up mine a couple weeks ago with 161K miles but only 2500 hours and the hitch has never been used. Its a fully loaded 2005 Z71 with Leather interior, bucket 2nd row, DVD player and the optional 4.11 gears. This thing looks new inside and out, and i got her for $8K.
I did have to replace the rear HVAC computer and the oil pump pickup tube o-ring.

Bought '99 Tahoe Limited 1st week of December with 104K miles. So far new fuel pump and level sensor, new tires 255/70/16 stock on this truck, new u-joints, new pitman arm, new visor covers, and a scan gauge to read water temp because the dash gauge is broken. I've got about $5500 into it.

Just bought a 2005 Chevy Tahoe LS. 132000 miles and the previous owner took crazy care of this thing. It has leather with aftermarket radio. All other things have been super well maintained. Very excited to be part of the Tahoe family. Oh yea, I work at Chevy!

Just joined the forum so that I could express the mileage of my Tahoe.
Currently my 2003 Tahoe, 5.3, has just rolled over 417,000 miles. Yes, you did read that correctly.

What repairs has it needed to run this distance?
I am proud to say it has had absolutely no repairs or replacements. Almost every component on the car is original. Engine and transmission have never been rebuilt.

Car was doing great, up until last month.

2001 Tahoe LS with around 231,000 miles has had its Water Pump replaced, Fuel Pump replaced, fuel gauge replaced, and new belts and hoses.

The one that just started a few days ago was the Battery light kept popping up on my message center. My dad replaced the battery for me and it was doing great until the light came back on and we found out that the battery light is for the alternator, which we also replaced. Now, I got in this morning to leave for classes and the light popped on again.

**UPDATE** Replacement Alternator was faulty as well, another has been put in and she is working great!
