What are customers are saying about the Chevrolet Tahoe in Dubai, UAE
Mousa - I bought my pre owned import Chevrolet Silverado LTZ not too long ago online. The price was right so I couldn’t say no. The specs are great in 2015 trim, and the air conditioning is cold, and the power is perfect when I take my kids to the UAE deserts as the 1500 can tow all four quads. Pros: Power, options and looks. Cons: Fuel economy.
Atif - I couldn’t decide between a second hand Silverado LT or a used GMC Sierra 4x4. The price factor was my primary concern, and I had to buy the Silverado. It’s got the power, looks and gets the job done no matter what. Pros: Robustness, price and style. Cons: Fuel economy.
Bryan - Back home I had a 2500HD, but when I move to the UAE I downgraded to the Silverado 1LT as I don't need to haul heavy loads anymore. Options are great inside even though the cabin feels hard, the engine provides enough kick, and it’s got enough space for the family. Kind of glad I don’t have the HD model as parking in Dubai would be a chore. Pros: Power, space and interior options. Cons: Interior cabin.
