Pros: Sips gas...safe, good in snow, mud, big pulling power.
Cons: Outside, sounds like a Kenworth semi, + diesel fumes
The Bottom Line: Thanks to US and foreign gas cartels... Detroit makes few beefy fuel efficient Turbo Diesel vehicles like this.
Versatility, strength, reliability, fuel economy.
OK, I've owned 2 dozen vehicles, foreign and domestic... Been driving 35 years. have driven everything from hi-tech racecars and sportscars to 20 ton vehicles, network TV trucks, state trooper cars and been professionally licensed to drive them all. ...

Pros: Plenty of room. Rides and handles great. Push button 4 wheel drive auto trac system.
Cons: a/c system could be better.
The Bottom Line: Buy one! Tons of room, reliable, lots of nice features. Suburban has been around forever and no other manufacturer makes anything like it.
I purchased my GMC 2500 SLT 6.5 Turbo diesel used in May of 2001 with 65,000 miles on it. I fell in love with this vehicle the first time I drove it. For such a large truck it handles and rides very well. Around town gas mileage is 15 and highway ...

Pros: Does anything and everything everywhere.
Cons: Some minor fit and finish defects that might even be from previous owner
The Bottom Line: This truck is a great choice for work and play!
I have always liked the big boxy style of these trucks, and 1999 was the last year they came this way.(now they are a bit more curvey) I wanted a truck that could handle a 4x8 sheet of plywood or drywall and also be able to transport at least 4-6 ...

Pros: Can you say interior room?
Cons: gas mileage, size
We bought our first Suburban in 1999, after getting rid of our "uncool" minivan. We have four kids in our family, and this was one of the only SUVs that had a third seat and a lot of room in the rear area. I love this vehicle. Yes, its...

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...

Pros: We love everything about the Suburban, we just wish that the price ot gas would go down.
Cons: Everyone else has one just like ours!
We bought our 1999 GMC 1500 SLE about 6 weeks ago and I can't even imagine
driving anything else ever again! We searched and searched for the right
vehicle for our needs. We have three teenagers, who have myriad friends,

Pros: It has a huge trunk.
Cons: The car is huge.
When most people think of a sport utility vehicle, they think of a huge, uncomfortable truck, that doesn't ride smoothly at all. The GMC Suburban is a sport utility vehicle that rides smoothly, has a huge interior, and is great for a family. This car...

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.

We're a small family - 2 adults, one toddler -- so a Suburban isn't the obvious choice... But I wanted to buy something with high marks for safety & reliability, and my husband wanted an SUV with lots room for dogs, camping gear, friends, etc. - and...

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...
