Chevy Tahoe Best Bet SUV

2009 Chevrolet Tahoe

Edmunds.com honors the best used cars on the market with their annual Used Car Best Bet Awards. These awards highlight vehicles they find to be the most reliable, safest, and most available. This year’s winner in the SUV category was the Chevy Tahoe from 2005-2010. Why did the Tahoe win and what makes it fly off used car lots?

Power and Control

SUVs are designed to be all-purpose vehicles, which includes everything from carrying the kids to school to going off road. The Tahoe has excellent power with a 320-hp 5.3L V8 engine, and it comes with a quick-reacting six-speed automatic transmission. This gives it the power and versatility to drive across rugged off-road terrain, but also an ease of use that even a big city soccer mom can appreciate. It also handles easily with precise control that appeals to all drivers as well as two-wheel and four-wheel drive options.

Comfort

Power and control are very important, but many drivers will more readily appreciate the Tahoe’s impressive comfort. Depending on the model you’re considering, the Tahoe is designed for six to nine passengers and sits them comfortably in three rows of seats. The Tahoe also has two- or four-door options available. The four-door options are typically more expensive, but can be especially useful for drivers who have to regularly carry a full car load. Our sales associates will be happy to show you what used models we currently have in stock.

Options

There are several trim level options for the Tahoe that help it appeal to an even wider base of people. The LS trim comes with dual-zone climate controls well as full power accessories. The LT and LTZ trims add amenities like power liftgates, heated seats, Bluetooth capacity, blind-spot warning systems, navigation, entertainment systems, and many more. Suffice to say, you should be able to find a used Tahoe model with the options you need.
