Bought used, runs well, needed work
Was looking for a Tahoe, several were bought before I had a chance to see them. Bought a 2004 Tahoe LT, red, beige interior.
Ran good from day one but did need cosmetic attention. Rust under the doors, almost every older Tahoe, Suburban, pickup, etc... seems to have this problem. I reinforced with 4 inch wide by 84 inch long stainless steel panel and Bondo. Looks good and solid.
Minor interior issues related to age. Beige interior. I removed front seats and recovered the seats. Not hard to remove the seats or recover. Will need an extra hand to stretch the new covers. Amazon has the STAR bit needed for seat bolt removal. Harbor Freight also has the bit needed.
Replaced the carpet, without seats installed it's very easy.
Apparently the radiator on 2004 and others in general year range can go bad. Mine did. Had it replaced,$800.00 with new antifreeze, new hoses, new resovoir, and Pennsylvania inspection, no problems with inpection. Runs great. Much more even heat and AC air flow.
