I'd guess the market for the Tahoe there is similar to the market for the Monroe Ironhide conversion of the GMC Topkick here. That's to say, a very few buyers for a huge truck meant to stand out of the crowd.
Maybe some Astro buyers of yore -- a surfer subculture that opens up the hatch and fills it with speakers to breakdance to on portable fiberglass dance floors at the beach.

What about the Yakusa mafia? Didn't they like the Crown Vics for their roomy trunks?
