    Boat full of fish sounds like a good time.

    . We still have a 99, and while its good for what we do with it, (winter beater/back country bomber status) I would spend a little more money and get something just a tad bit newer. Mostly anything your going to find is going to need about 600 bucks and weekend of your time, to put a front end under it, prolly will need shocks, other wise they are solid though very truck like
    Thanks sleeve, mirrors what I've been reading on other forums. GMT800 it is.

    My parents have a 2002 Tahoe. Been a great truck. Has 300k miles on it and the 5.3L is still running strong.

    Honestly rides better than my grandparents 2010 Tahoe. Granted theirs have lower profile tires.

    We tow anything from boats to snowmobile trailers with it and it does well. Hauled my e30 on a car hauler from Maine back to Michigan no problem.

    Wouldn't hesitate to pick one up for myself if I didn't have free access to theirs already lol
    Nice!

      Well I've decided to buy a 2001 Suburban from my older brother. He's had it since 2003 and kept it well maintained. Can't complain about the family discount either! Has a rear main seal leak, so if I get frisky I might drop the trans and fix it, or just wait until the 4l60e inevitably takes a shit and fix it then.
