Still a great truck
Bullwinkle, 07/13/2005
1993 Chevrolet Suburban K1500 4dr SUV 4WD
I bought used with 114,000 miles. Only major repair was the transmission replaced at no cost (previous owner had replaced it shortly before.) I drive it about 12,000 miles/year and it's very cheap to drive. I fix a few things on it each year, but it's much cheaper than my other cars (used Hondas which I finally gave up on.) Gas mileage is about 14 mpg which is great considering it's … mostly around town. Still get 17-18 mpg on long trips, even with 199,000 miles on it, and it runs great. I'm 6'5" tall and can stretch my legs fully out while driving. It's like driving my couch. Finally with a 43 gallon tank, the range is incredible. My best is 720 miles on one tank (Jacksonville, FL to northern VA)

From Mini Van Hell to Suburban Heaven

1993 Chevrolet Suburban C1500 4dr SUV
The Voyager died with 2 payments left on it. We needed a bus to cart around our 5 children. The trendy friends were aghast. Everyone said we had lost our marbles. This is the greatest vehicle! Inside is bigger than a studio apartment and kids can't touch each other. There's tons of room for bikes, groceries, tools, lumber, you name it. It chews up the highway, gets better mileage than my … new Ram 1500 V6. Goes anywhere! 4x4 so I'll never have to worry about the "S" word again! It's heavy and safe. It's so comfortable, we nicknamed it the "Big Comfy Couch". Its bright red paint gets us confused for a fire vehicle! The best $2800 I've ever spent. Let the Yuppies sneer, we'll eat their Rendevous!

Sturdy Truck w/some probs
REK3, 06/09/2004
1993 Chevrolet Suburban K2500 4dr SUV 4WD
This is a sturdy truck. The problems I
have had are often cooling system
related. The entire system has been
redone twice in 3-years, including
three times for the rear heater core.
(Consumer Reports notes the cooling
system as problem area for the
1993's.) Also, fuel mileage with the
454 ranges from 9-12, averaging 10
mpg. Finally, the engine does not
perform as … one might expect a from
454. I will try to upgrade the exhaust
to help it breath. Worthless trade-in
value for the Cheyanne model, but
otherwise a good ranch truck.
We have a limited number of reviews for the 1993 Chevrolet Suburban, so we've included reviews for other years of the Suburban since its last redesign.
