After 8 1/2 years of ownership, Dad finally waved goodbye to the Tahoe this afternoon. very very reliable vehicle, and what I consider one of the last 'proper' chevies, tough solid and very reliable, newer ones just dont seem quite as tough to me.

in 8 years virtually nothing went wrong, a heater control panel, rad, a cracked inlet manifold, and prop UJ's - not bad in 80,00 miles.

still love the un cluttered lines of the 96 - 99 tahoe and suburban, when they got 'softer' in 2000 they lost a little appeal for me.

new owner actually looked at it a couple of months ago, but couldn't get insured.  Frank pickles did the job, and as soon as he was back in the UK he jumped on it.

so long Tahoe, and I wish many many many happy miles to your new owner.

They bought an 03 reg Pug 307 in January..

they sold the caravan last year, and are starting to wind down in readiness for the move to spain, so the tahoe was totally surplus to requirements. the pug will do nicely for now, dad really likes it. sooooooo cheap to run, and easier size to wash, park etc..

How much did the hoe go for in the end?
