Hey guys.
I posted on one of the threads IRT wheels on my 1997 Tahoe.
I've been searching for "this" truck for 2 years, and finally found it in Ohio. I bought it off eBay last month.

I had a 1996 2-Door 4WD Tahoe several years ago, and had to upgrade to a bigger truck due to a planned bigger boat purchase; (went to a 2500 Avalanche 4x4 and now have a PSD Ford CC 4x4 Dually). I've missed that Tahoe ever since I traded it in. Now I have another which will be a driver; and I can't wait to get it set up for my liking. It wasn't supposed to cost me this much though! I just had all new intake gaskets put on last week. The springs and suspension will be changed this week.

I did not buy this truck to tow, but it's awesome that it already came with the hitch and rear Air-Lift airbags. I have a bigger boat, but also this all-original 1985 "Cigarette" Mini Hawk. I can't actually see the MH when I tow it with my dually, so the 'Hoe is perfect for it!

Here's a pic of my first Tahoe, and also the Avalanche 2500 that I sold to buy the dually.

I miss both the Tahoe and the AV, but now I have the new low 'Hoe, so it all balances out in the end.
