Love the cars features and its a great value. I would compare it to the Ford excursion.

Missing third row , but looked to be in good condition

I really enjoy the Suburban/Yukon platform. The only complaint is the instrument cluster. They have a decently high failure rate. Once theyre properly rebuilt, they will last for years and years. The front ends of the 4X4 models have to be greased at every oil change. But even greasing them all of the time will not prevent failure. Ball joint failure and Pitman arm/idler arm failure is fairly common. Greasing the front steering components will help offset premature failure. Pther than that, great vehicles

You just could not ask for better! It handles and rides like a dream. Incredibly comfortable and wonderful to drive. It can pull heavy loads without a problem or you even noticing the load is back there (I have hauled loads of cedar logs on my 18' trailer so big that you couldn't see my third break light and she didn't even act like the load was there). When you remove the third row seat (which is my ONLY gripe, you have to remove 3rd row to be able to have flat surface for hauling things inside it) you can haul a lot of things. I recently bought a used 65" flat screen TV (so no box) that had a stand and it all fit in the back with room to spare (did have to tilt the TV to get it through the back, but it stood up right after that. The turning radius for such a large vehicle is amazing, it's better than my little GMC Jimmy. I actually get 16 mpg in the city and 25 mpg on highway, of course your mpg is going to depend on several factors ... your driving style, terrain, and weather you use 100% gas or Ethanol. I only use 100% gas in mine. If I am traveling through a state that does not offer 100% I use Lucas fuel treatment and that balances out the gas and I retain the same mpg as with pure gas. Mine is now 11 years old with over 195000 miles on it and the most expensive (and only repair other than regular maintenance) thing I have had to replace/ fix is the A/C evaporator core under the dash. The only cosmetic indicator of her age and miles is the front leather seats that have some wrinkles and a couple tears. The paint still looks like new even though it get's a bath at a full service car wash at LEAST once a week.

This vehicle checks many boxes. Safe, substantial room for passengers, great cargo area, standard towing package, many convenience items that are easily upgraded. Generally sold as a 4x4 in the northeast. Good in the snow. Good performance, with above average power. This is a relatively heavy vehicle that crushes the pavement, very comfortable to drive or ride. Overall I rate this GM chassis as one of the best ever! The cons........This vehicle can develop a valve slap on the 5.3 liter. Front end usually need substantial work completed and can be costly. The most consistent oversight for this design is rust. The rockers rust out frequently along with the brake lines. Always inspect the frame for similar problems. The extended chassis is a better buy. You can fit many passenger in the short wheelbase Tahoe or Yukon design but you sacrifice the ability to haul any cargo. In addition, Chevy failed to offer a 6 liter option to my knowledge versus the GMC Denali models. I rate this vehicle a 4.7 out of 5.
