    do you have a link to the information you posted about them redesigning the frame and such for LE?

    It looks like this one is 2WD, I believe Chevy makes a Special Service Tahoe only in 4WD and a Pursuit Rated Tahoe in 2WD, since it is a Highway Patrol unit. The agency in my hometown uses several Chevy Tahoes, 4WD and 2WD pursuit versions. They used 4x4 Ford Expeditions in the late 90's but went with Chevy's after the Fords drivelines kept falling out. The area they patrol is very vast and only 20% of the roads are paved.

    Wow, so Chevrolet built a seperate frame and panels just so they could sell a couple thousand tahoe's to cops a year?

    Actually, Police Tahoes, are made to be shorter, to lower their center of gravity to reduce the chance of a roll over. The 4x4 AND the 4x2 Police Tahoes are shorter than the regular civilan Tahoe. Chances are this is a 4x4.
