How Much Should I Pay: 2005-2006 Chevrolet Tahoe
Question From Lucas: What should I expect to pay for a 2005-2006 Chevy Tahoe Z71 package with less than 40K miles? Options include DVD, 4WD, 2nd row bucket seats, leather, and sunroof. Will a white or black Tahoe be more expensive than other colors? Thanks!!
Queen of the Road: Hi Lucas. I’ll research ranges at 40,000 miles.
For a 2006 Chevrolet Tahoe 4WD 5.3L Z71 with 40,000 miles, wholesale prices range from $19,500 (being in above average condition) to $16,800 (being in average condition) and $14,200 (being in below average condition). A dealership will usually aim to sell it for +12%-14% more than wholesale, so their estimated retail prices could range from $15,700 to $21,300. A private seller will usually aim to sell it for 5%-10%.

Check the carfax and do plenty of research on the history of the vehicle. Ask for their maintenance records. You can even bring a mechanic for a brief inspection.
