What is a leveled Tahoe?

I’m trying to find a used car so I can have a second vehicle. One of my friends is selling something that she described as a “leveled Tahoe”. What is that? And is it a good thing?

Excellent question! Buying used cars can be a tricky business, especially if you’re not sure what you’re buying. A leveled Tahoe is a
Chevy
Tahoe with aftermarket modifications. Specifically, it has been leveled, meaning someone has slightly raised the front of the vehicle to make it level with the back.
Leveling typically requires a bit of work and a leveling kit. It’s not usually that expensive, but it does mean that your friend has put some extra money into the thing.
As for whether or not it’s a good thing—I would say no. The advantages of leveling are largely cosmetic, and they allow for larger wheels to be installed.
But they will often increase strain on your suspension, void any warranties, and may raise to cost of insuring the vehicle.
If you do decide to buy the leveled
