If I were you, I would stay away from it, unless you got it rediculously cheap. I don't believe that there is anything special about that truck. Police vehicles get the piss ran out of them sometimes 24 hours a day if it is not assigned to one officer. I have been told that modern police interceptor packages are just simple mods, like dual exhaust, bigger throttle body, etc, oh and putting the plain wheels on.

I belive the tahoes have different brake package,IE bigger and harder to get parts(dealer only). also upgraded charging and cooling system, suspension mods I think but not sure the cam is different from production. many do not have the rear a/c heat units in them.
Call your local chevy parts they may be able to answer the qestions better, I think there is a few Chevy parts guys lurking around in her too. the drugs and needles you may find in the back seat under the seat bottom generally come as no extra charge..........BIG PLUS!!!!! LOL
