Chevy vs Ford vs Toyota vs Honda

I have a Tahoe and I like it, no issues at all!. A great truck and boy can you put some miles on these things and they just keep on going.
You can pull a house without the truck groaning but I'd recommend you find one with the trailer hauling pkg. and the 5.3 engine. I'd also suggest on the Tahoe you get one with the LT pkg.

Did you thing about a Chevy Suburban?
How about a Ford Expedition?

If you are buying second hand, get one that's GM Certified (bumper to bumper warranty for 12 mos or 12,000 miles) that you can take to any GM Dealer for warranty repairs and get a CARFAX to see the complete history. Not all certified warranties are the same.

Also check on who gets better gas mileage.

Some like Fords, some like Chevy's it's up to you which you will like-

DRIVE A couple first! It doesn't cost to look and test drive and then you can be happy afterwards

Good Luck!

If I had the money I would buy a Toyota. Longest lasting vehicles on the market with great resale value.

If everyone agreed

If everyone agreed on which is best we would have only one car manufacture. For as long as I can remember Ford and Chevy guys would debate how they had the better truck. Things have changed since then and we now have a few more players.

Who is better? Check the reviews, they are all good
Which last longer? They all last a long time.
Which one gets better gas mileage? Just about the same-it may vary slightly depending upon the engine size

As someone else stated, if you are buying preowned, make sure you get a "carfax" and do a test drive.

Today, assembly of any is vastly improved, so no matter what you decide on you will do fine.
