The Suburban From Hell

by masanders
Nov 02 '00 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 1.0 Recommended: No 

Pros: Size
Cons: BRAKES

We purchased a new 1999 GMC Suburban, in the spring of 1999. From the beginning, 34 miles, it has been a problem. One thing after another with the brakes. It has been to the shop 10 times. They have worked on them up till now. They say they are worn...

Suburbans miles per gallon or gallons per mile?? Whats next?

by wildlifesavr1
Sep 10 '00 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 1.0 Recommended: No 

Pros: large capacity (for construction not suburban mothers)
Cons: gas guzzling DESTROYS environment

I was amazed when I was informed about this disgusting piece of metal. It is oversized and ugly. This is the equivilent of a truck that is used in construction. They are in fact very large and that an get very inconvenient when parking, driving on...

get off the road

by grimpeeper
Mar 03 '00 - Updated Apr 20 '00 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 2.0 Recommended: No 

Pros: fairly comfortable
Cons: TOO BIG

I drive a Geo Metro. I could use a Suburban as a garage. The size of these things is simply ridiculous. There is no logical use for a car this big. If it is necessary for you to have lots of passenger space, buy a minivan. If you need cargo space, any...

The Suburban - A Good Truck with Unfortunate Flaws

by aanker
Sep 25 '99 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 4.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Plenty of space for the family and luggage
Cons: Lots of little bugs that are bothersome

We have three kids, two big dogs and the urge to road trip often... a combination that required a big truck where everyone could spread out and have their space. There was really no other choice for us besides the Suburban which met our needs perfectly...

With the new Suburban out by GMC, you can now take your entire family along with you when you go on vacation. I personally own a Suburban, and with all of it's features like rear and middle A/C, plus rear control of heat and air control the passengers...

Suburban Vs. Excursions: All in all, the Suburban kicks ASS!

by Night
May 12 '00 - Updated May 30 '00 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 4.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Great power, comfort, and reliability.
Cons: Gas guzzler, and higher rollover risk.

The GMC Suburban is the most reliable SUV I have ever driven. I've driven all of Ford's SUVs, and the Suburban topped all of them in almost every category. I believe that GMC/Chevrolet make the highest quality SUV, clearly shown in the Suburban.

New Fully Loaded 2000 LT

by tomewilson
Mar 11 '00 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 4.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Ride, feel of front seating, read door, walk thru seating in rear
Cons: Price, front passenger seat, no passenger controls for rear heating and cooling

I've owned two Tahoe's (1995 & 1999) -- fully loaded. We got a puppy about 6 months ago and needed more space -- for the dog and three teenagers who don't want to "touch" each other.

I grew up with two Suburbans that my father...

Looking for Bells and Whistles in your new Suburban?

by datatech1
Mar 19 '00 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 4.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: excellent cruising truck - good vacation machine
Cons: Lacks the finer things you would expect in this price range

Plain and simply stated, the GMC suburban is a fantastic truck. The keyword here is truck. If you are expecting anymore than that, explore other options. In a Suburban, you will sit high atop the road and literally cruise along the highways with good...

1999 SLT

by nvranbo
Jan 03 '00 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 4.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: power, visibility, cargo space, comfortable ride
Cons: gas mileage

After comparing nearly all the 4-door, 4X4 SUV's available, the suburban seemed to be the best overall bargain. Much more cargo space for very competitive price compared to Yukon, Tahoe, Expedition, Explorer, and Navigator. Major drawback is gas...

Pros: generally well built
Cons: see above

I have a suburban 98 XLT 2500, and in general I love the powerful engine and the handling. I have two problems with the vehicle. One is the air conditioner which is not powerful enough (even compared to my old suburban 86). Also when you are in gear but...

Once You Own One, You'll Have to Always Have One!

by pinkrosebud
Jan 25 '00 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Room, Handling, Ease of Drive
Cons: Haven't found one yet!

We had a 1 yr. lease on a black Suburban in 1998, and had no doubts about entering a 3 yr. lease for another 1999 one, this time in Pewter. We checked out other SUV's, minivans, etc. but just couldn't do it! When we leased our first one, they told us...
