Tahoe, nor Suburban.



Avalanche was Suburban based. Tahoe is much shorter.

Look at the back doors. Tahoe's are cut to fit the wheelwell. Burb and Avi are not notched as their wheelbase is much longer than the Hoe.

The Avi had the locking side storage boxes and coil spring rear suspension long before Dodge. And they didn't have a negative effect on payload nor towing. Hauled 15 sheets of drywall, with the tailgate closed (guy at HD was amazed) and it didn't squat and it towed a 8k pound mini excavator just fine.

You are correct sir.

I logged around 450,000 miles in two of them (Avalanches) and concurrently owned a ‘01 Suburban and did not realize this.

With the top half of the rear of the vehicle missing, it just seemed shorter.

Plus I’m a good driver so the length of the vehicle wasn’t an issue.
