Used 2003 Chevrolet Suburban Consumer Reviews
Always wanted one
I always wanted one and now I know why. The smooth quiet ride and handling blow away, the Ford's and Dodge's. The style and dependability are outstanding. My 1996 3500 Chevy Crew Cab has 96,541 miles on it and the only thing I ever replaced was the fuel pump. I also just gave my 1989 Chevy S-10 4x4 Blazer to my father, it is running great with 241,000 miles on it. Chevrolet truck quality is head and shoulders above the market competition. I expect the same performance from my Suburban. Plenty of room and comfort for my family and friends.
American Beauty
Bought our 2003 Sub LT new in 2003. 130,000 miles later still going strong. GM has a real winner with this truck, and the LT has all the creature comforts for the long rides to the beach or skiing (and running around town). Some drama along the way: Seat memories early on, AC failure around 50K, fuel tank sender issues but darn thing is so much fun to have around we have kept her even after the family has grown up. My wife now drives a Lexus RX (and all her friends too) but I can't let this gem go.

Great Vehicle
We love our Suburban. It is the perfect family vehicle. With four kids, the space is ideal. We've made a number of long distance road trips and the ability to move 6 people with alot of luggage and gear is a real plus. I love the fact that I can fit a 4' x 8' sheet of plywood etc... in the rear cargo area. If your a weekend project person, this vehicle is ideal. All around it's the most practical and comfortable vehicle in it's class.
Chevy Diehard
I have driven Chevy's all my life. But this one may send me away. Nothing but dash problem everything has to be serviced because of lights coming on even after I have it serviced. Airbag went out right after warranty. Goes into 4 wheel low by itself. Replaced Horn, entire AC. DVD player in roof causing whole roof to droop. I love my truck but it is driving me crazy with expenses and dash lights always on. I always have things flushed and take care of my vehicles. $1000 dollars for air bag replacement now is out of my budget. Can not afford to take in to figure out why it goes into 4 wheel on its own. New horn now has problems again. This is at least my 7th Chevy could be last.
Review 2003
The 2003 is lighter and handles a little better than the 2000. The 2003 does not get as good as milage as the 2000, in fact it is exactly 2.3 miles less per gallon than the 2000.Do not know why but I suspect it is the different transmission. Also GM has all kinds of little nickle and dime short cuts in the 2003, like no tail gate key entry, cheaper paint in the door jams, lots of little cheap cut backs that are surprising for a vehicle that has one of the most loyal customer followings.
