Review
My daughter calls it Babe because it is big and blue (like Paul Bunyan's Ox). The Suburban is by far the most roomy of all other vehicles I have owned. We are a family of big people. I have three sons each over six feet tall my daughter is 5'9 and my wife is 5'11" and when we have taken road trips to Oregon and Arizona it has been very nice. It has the large 454 engine and with a few minor adjustments to the exhaust and intake I have managed to squeeze as much as 14 MPG on the highway while pulling a trailer. I know that the new trucks get much better mileage. But I just love this one so much I will most likely keep it as long as the oil reserves do not run out.

We bought it because extended family takes long road trips together and we were in the middle of a home remodel. It held 8 people, a dog and a weeks worth of stuff comfortably from Central CA to Arizona; all with one tank of gas. Removing the rear seat and folding down the second row gave us space to haul everything we needed during the remodel, including protecting 8' sections of wood moulding in the rain. There is no substitute for this SUV in this price range.

I will buy from a GM dealer next time versus private party. The money I saved from buying from an individual versus the dealer was what I had to pay for repairs/maintence. This full size SUV provides the cargo and passenger space while providing towing capability. The space and towing beats the Fords.

This vehicle has been truly outstanding. It does anything I ask of it, tow, travel, off road, commute, and does it in comfort, style and gets 20+ mph on trips. Repairs have been minimal, it burns no oil at 160,000 and I will replace it with another.

Solid truck, lots of power, have had it
for the last 50k of its 176,000 miles,
and plenty more to go.
No major work necessary since I've had
it, and only replaced original parts
(alternator, etc), so no major work
before I had it.

Review
We bought the '95 Suburban used in 4/00,
it had 90k miles but in excellent shape.
Three years and 30k miles later, it has
had electrical (ignition and
instrumentation) problems, brake
problems, stereo quit twice (bought a GM
replacement and then finally a Pioneer)
and the interior plastics have cracked
and are falling apart (brake release,
hood release, and seat belt guides).
The gas mileage on the 5.7L is ~9-11 MPG
without exception. Both dealerships and
performance shops feel the mileage is
not out of the ordinary.
The size and comfort of this vehicle is
easily its main virtue but expensive to
own and anything but worry-free.
