Picked up a super clean 2003 Tahoe LT with 240k for $4600. Runs like a champ. Since I have a company car for work, I'm set for a while.

Needs:
-Driver door panel
-Driver fender and door (ditched by previous owner)
-Body work on rear quarter (Also ditch damage)
-Need to find a new spare
-Needs new speakers
-Will need a tune up soon (check engine light on, cylinder 2 misfire)
-Needs new coolant res. (sensor is jacked so the light stays on)
-New fuel level sensor (low fuel light stays on)

2006 Yukon 4x4 214,000 miles. haven't had any major issues other than something wrong with the differential as it looked like someone tried to repair it- I bought it in 2010 with 78,000 miles on it= and I haven't touched the rear end since-the change over was in 2015,,probably at 170,000 miles..I can't remember.

I have had the usual=brakes, tune up twice, tires. had to replace the stainless steel lines to the transmission and a few smaller things. Engine no problems. Transmission only done the screen and fluids a few times.

It has a weird noise lately but we are still trying to figure out what it is. I can't complain. It's comfortable, powerful and never left me stranded. I have heard that the earlier years had some issues but I think the 2006 may have cleared up any issues.

Looking to upgrade to a newer one but worry that the newer vehicles have more problems than the older ones due to cost cutting measures of using lesser quality materials etc. Can't complain. I hope to get another year or two out of it..as someone said-told me to drive it until it grenades.

85k miles. Seeing all of these high mile trucks makes me pretty confident about my purchase.

My 99 has 243000 on it. I've had it for about 10 years and have done pretty much nothing to it beside the basics. Unfortunately now it's starting to give me problems but I'm not complaining!

bulb size

I took a look at a replacement control head I had, they say Toshiba V-2. Small tiny bulbs. Hope this helps.
