1999 Chevrolet Tahoe LT 4 Wheel Drive 4 Door
The truck was originally on a two year lease when new and was turned in at the end of the lease.
I then purchased the truck on 12/31/2001 from Parker Buick-GMC in Morehead City, NC. The truck had 44,321 miles on it and was in like new condition.
I have all of the original paperwork when I bought it as well as the original window sticker.
The original 5.7 Vortec engine overheated with my wife five years ago on a trip due to a leaking water pump and the engine blew. She claims she didn't know it was overheating but that's another story.
I had a replacement 5.7 Vortec engine which had 100,000 miles on it professionally installed a week later on 6/28/2008. The truck itself had 203,729 miles on it. I have the original receipt from this work.
So although the truck itself has 231,750 miles on it, the engine and peripherals only have 128,021 miles on it.
My wife hit a deer four years ago. The deer impacted the right front bumper, swung around and hit the front passenger door. The door was never fixed or replaced (see picture).
The leather seat bottom of the driver's seat is heavily worn. The passenger seat is fine but I installed matching cloth seat covers on both the driver's and passenger's seats.
The air conditioner quit working last year. We recharged the system and included dye in order to diagnose the problem. The compressor needs replacement. All other AC components are good.
There are a few scratches on the doors and tailgate. The driver's side door has some scratches from my golden retriever greeting me.
The carpeting, headliner and cargo area have various stains that may or may not come out. They could all use a good cleaning.
The Uniroyal Laredo tires have about 75% tread remaining.
The latest full service (oil, filter, tire rotation) has 2,000 miles on it.
The brakes are due for inspection at the next service interval (1,000 miles).
NC title is clean, clear, and in hand.
Two original keys and one original key fob is included. The key fob needs a replacement battery.
The truck runs great and I would not hesitate to take off on a cross country trip with it this minute.
The 4 wheel drive works perfectly and I use it on occasion at the local beaches.
This has been the most reliable and most utilitarian vehicle I have ever owned. I hate to part with it but I'm a real estate agent and in need of a later model vehicle for clients.
Please contact me through the "Contact the Seller" link if you need any additional information or pictures.
Thank You,
Rod J

GM execs fired over fraudulent India emissions testing
Mon, 29 Jul 2013General Motors hadn't had a recall in India since 1995. That changed when it was discovered that certain employees were playing tricks with local emissions testing in order to ensure passing grades for engines. More than ten GM Powertrain employees in India and the US have been let go over the ensuing emissions flap, including Sam Winegarden, VP of global engine engineering, a man who has been with the company since 1969, leading development of some marquee powerplants.
According to Automotive News, an internal investigation revealed that employees "violated testing procedures," sometimes swapping specially prepared low-emissions engines during testing regimes for the Chevrolet Tavera SUV equipped with the 2.0-liter and 2.5-liter engines. Employees were also manipulating weights in order to get vehicles placed into different emissions categories. The discovery has led to GM recall the 114,000 Taveras produced over an eight-year period and halting their production and sale.
The Economic Times of India reports that the issue is due to "a faulty component." GM has developed a solution to the issue, and once it is validated in testing and approved by the Indian authorities, the recalled vehicles will be fixed at dealers and production will resume.
Vert-A-Pac train cars kept your Chevy Vega's price in check
Fri, 01 Mar 2013Our apologies to those who've seen this before, but for the rest of the class, how awesome are these pictures of the Vert-A-Pac shipping system General Motors came up with to ship the Chevrolet Vega back in the 1970s? Developed along with Southern Pacific Railroad, GM was able to double the amount of Vega models it could ship by packing them into the unique storage cars vertically.
At the time, rail cars could fit 15 vehicles each, but Chevrolet was able to lower shipping costs by making it possible to ship 30 Vegas per rail car, in turn allowing the price of the Vega to remain as low as possible. Each rail car had 30 doors that would fold down so that a Vega could be strapped on, and then a forklift would come along and lift the door into place. All the cars were positioned nose down, and since they were shipped with all of their required fluids, certain aspects had to be designed specifically for this type of shipping, including an oil baffle in the engine, a special battery and even a repositioned windshield washer reservoir. See for yourself in our image gallery above.
