Is yours pretty clean?
Yes, both are really clean.

My wife's DD is a 2010 Tahoe PPV. She loves it. Runs great, handles well. All we've doe to it so far is an Air Raid MIT, and tune. Next up is a 2/3 drop, and sway bars.

Nice! This one is 4x4 so we will probably level it with all terrains!

You know what? I do recall it being listed as an SSV. What's the difference?

It's just the difference in specification. The 2WD Tahoe is the Police Patrol Vehicle, and the 4WD Tahoe is the Special Service Vehicle.

The SSV has a bit more ground clearance, and I think a bit better gearing. It's not made for high-speed pursuit like the PPV, but has off-road capabilities that the PPV does not. Other than that, they should be pretty similar.

Well I found an '07 Tahoe SSV with 63,xxx miles for $14,500. I'm trying to hurry up an get my Caprice here so I can put a deposit on the SSV and sell the wife's 2012 Avenger. On a good note, the Caprice is supposed to be picked up tonight and delivered here tomorrow. I'm keeping my fingers crossed!
