Hate it
I absolutely despise my 2005 Chevrolet Tahoe. It is by far the absolute worst vehicle I have ever owned in my entire life, and I will never own one as long as I live. I have owned the vehicle one year, and since then, I have replaced the motor, the tires, the brakes, the air conditioner, the fuel pump and many more things. It gets horrible gas mileage and is extremely difficult to clean. Oil changes cost a fortune for it because it takes so much oil and has extremely high fuel filters. It feels like you are driving a bus. The insurance on the Tahoe is very high as well, and because it's a four-wheel drive, the premiums are even higher. Oh, I forgot that the four-wheel drive goes out about every four months. It works as long as you don't need it, then it just quits. These vehicles are over prices and under warranted if you ask me, and I will never again own one. As soon as I can pay this stupid thing off, I will buy something that costs less with better gas mileage. I would recommend not getting a Chevrolet at all because every one I have ever had the transmission goes out after 100,000 miles, every single time! I will not be buying anything from Chevrolet again.

Solid hard-working vehicle
We purchased this Tahoe as we pull a boat and seem to always be hauling around stuff. To us, the Tahoe seems to be the same quality as the much higher-priced Escalade. While it does not get the greatest mileage, it makes up for that in comfort and reliability. We have well over 100,000 miles on this vehicle and have spent very little on repairs. We recently discussed replacing it, and our mechanic said he felt it was in great shape and saw no need for us to do so. The interior is nice with smooth leather and sleek lines,

Reliable and simple
This vehicle has been very reliable. In five years of owning the vehicle, I have only had to replace the water pump. That was easy to replace myself. It does not have too many fancy features that I do not feel are needed. This just makes things more expensive and harder to work on. The three rows of seats provide all you need to carry many passengers. They also fold down if you need to transport over-sized cargo. It can tow a fairly large RV/camper behind it. With it being a fairly large vehicle, the gas mileage is not very good, as expected. I also like styling of the vehicle. The new models just do not have the same feeling as the body of the older model. The leather seats are nice. The car can be cold in the winter, but there is a heater in the seats. Although, this takes a little while to heat up. They also have a tendency to wear out if you are not careful about how you rub on the seats when stepping into the vehicle. The factory sound system is not bad but may leave some to be desired for audio enthusiasts that want something louder. The dexcool antifreeze put in the car by the factory is known to cause problems with the coolant system, and I think that may be why the water pump was required to be replaced.
