Thinking about buying a Tahoe

/ Thinking about buying a Tahoe #41  
Is it a 1500 or 2500?
Or is there any difference in the comfortable ride?
1500 4x4
All the factory options.
Leather seating
Seat heaters
Dual climate control
Separate rear heat/ac
etc...

It really is a comfortable ride.

Don't ask about gas mileage. 🙃

I have a 2018 Escalade .. basically the same think as the Denali trim in the GMC .. Yukon /Tahoe. It has the 6.0 and it's been flawless after 55k miles. And gets 19 mpg. Had to replace one wheel bearing in the right front and a battery. That's it. I'd buy a nice Tahoe without hesitation if I was in the market,

To the OP, the Tahoe/Yukon is an excellent choice for an all-around utility vehicle. Mine is 4WD. I can get 7' lumber in behind the front seats, 8' if I lay it on the console. The Yukon is my back up towing vehicle for the utility trailers, up to 8100#. My biggest bumper pull is my 16' trailer at 7000#, so no problem. Has the Max Tow package so it has an exhaust brake and integrated trailer brake controller. It has 6 passenger capacity, although the 3rd row seats are always down for hauling cargo. They are power fold so putting them up is no problem, just push a button. With about 2500 miles on it, I am getting a combined 22 MPG, mostly in town driving. Best I have done on a road trip is 30 MPG. After filling it with diesel up it shows 525 miles available. Determination for travel distance between stops is me, not the vehicle.
I wish SUV makers would make the front passenger seat fold flat so that 8’ or maybe even 10’ (diagonally) boards would fit inside.

I though Mrs. HD was going to get another one, but she just decided to extend the warranty on the X5, so we might be waiting a few more years.

I measured the loading space in the Suburban with the two rows of rear seats folded down, and it looks like 8' lumber would fit.
