Strong engines, roomy and versatile interior, numerous available amenities.
Cons
Spotty build quality, interior materials could use improvement.
What’s new
A touchscreen navigation system is optional on Tahoe this year, and all models now come standard with the overhead rear liftgate (with separate rear lift-glass). The Z71 off-road package can now be had with two-wheel drive.
Edmunds says
With room for up to nine passengers, gutsy V8 engines and a long list of available options, it's no wonder the Tahoe is the best-selling full-size sport-ute on the market.

2005 Chevrolet Tahoe LS 4WD 4dr SUV (5.3L 8cyl 4A)
Bought a 2005 tahoe LS with 60k miles on it and feel I love with it! It's the best "do anything" vehicle. You can use it for family or work or towing and it even looks good all cleaned up taking the wife out on a date in a classy part of town. The 5.3 was extremely reliable and even with low Mpg's
(15.5 no matter what) it was a pleasure to own and drive. We took this truck across the … country multiple times and never felt fatigued after 12 hour days. It was loaded to the brim with features and never got tired of owning it. We traded it in for a "gas sipper" and every since we did, I've been miserable. I'll take the fuel cost over not being happy.
Excellent Performance

2005 Chevrolet Tahoe LS 4WD 4dr SUV (5.3L 8cyl 4A)
The Chevy Tahoe LT 5.3L V8 is one of the best vehicles I've ever owned!
I bought it with 82,000 miles on it, and now it has 95,000 miles on it.
The Tahoe can accelerate very fast for a large size vehicle.
One of the reasons why I would recommend it to others.
The only problem I had with it was that the clutch for the A/C and/or Heater went out.
But It was a small repair, otherwise the … Chevy Tahoe is the best SUV ever.
Excellent value for money

i purchased my tahoe 4 years ago, so far i didn't face any kind of problem with the car. i live in the arabian gulf so hot during summer but the cooling system and A/C are very efficient.dealer service is excellent. until this day i'm still using the original brake pad after 65000 Km and the dealer said it is still 50%
So Far, So Good

2005 Chevrolet Tahoe LS Rwd 4dr SUV (4.8L 8cyl 4A)
This is my second Tahoe purchased new and it does exactly what I need it to do. I have had to use the stability control and it does work. LT w/ autoride is great. This SUV is now 5 years old and everything still works. It may not get 25+ mpg but look at the thing. Its a big SUV with a big engine. The transmission seems to know exactly when to shift and is holding up well with … maintenance. I still love it.
