So, I took a trip to a local C-10 Club meet in late March. It was the first time we've made a trip in the Tahoe with my little boy (2 yrs). It's a pain to get a car seat in/out! Also, it's not easy getting him in/out considering he's rear facing. He'll likely be rear-facing for another year, & we plan to have another child next year. It really got me to thinking about the practicality of this thing right now in my life. After the trip, I began thinking about possibly selling it. It's not something I really want to do though.
I had come across a '99 Suburban mild custom that I really like. It has a good bit more miles than my Tahoe, but it has been well taken care of. I wasn't even really looking for another vehicle when I first saw it on an auto detailer's Facebook page I follow. It caught my attention though, so I reached out to him to see if he could give me more info. I had no clue if it was for sale & honestly didn't expect it to be. After contacting the owner, however, I found out that it was indeed for sale (just not advertised). It's funny because that's how I came across this Tahoe. I initially contacted with intentions of buying the Burb outright & then selling mine. However, after mentioning my Tahoe through conversation, the owner asked if I would have any interest in trading. So, I'm still trying to make decisions.
I've played out several scenarios in my head over & over. My biggest fear is letting it go & regretting it later down the road. However, I have 3 other antique vehicles (2 inherited) that also need attention. I would love to focus on those & make sure they're all roadworthy. However, I also know these 2dr/2wd Tahoes are not common & likely to be quite collectible themselves someday. After all, mine will be deemed "antique" in a few years.
I've been working on this thing for probably a month at least, trying to button up some of the things I should've done a long time ago. I've been thoroughly cleaning every inch I can. I neglected it for much too long, & it was due for a major detail. I'll get some updated pics once everything is done, likely this weekend.
