this truck has and does everything

by bubbajames
Nov 26 '03 

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

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 ...

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...

New Fully Loaded 2000 LT

by tomewilson

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...

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

The Suburban is a nice rummy truck. It has 4 wheel drive and superb handling. It is big and has room for 8 adults. It has a V8,air conditioner, cruse control, and 4 wheel drive. If it snows three or four feet and you have to get your kids somewhere you...

Outstanding Vehicle

by brickmaker

Pros: Dependabiliy, roominess, options
Cons: Cost and Gas Mileage

We have owned several GMC products for our business. Over the years we have also had several luxury vehicles in the fleet. We have to move very heavy samples, and also customers over quite some distance. Doing business in the Northeast, we are very...

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: Very reliable, safe and stylish vehicle
Cons: Takes a lot of gas

This is the ultimate family truckster! Our family consists of two adults and three children under 5. Needless to say when we travel, we need the room! We have owned a Ford Explorer, a GMC Yukon Denali and now the GMC Suburban. We had no complaints...

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...

LOVE THAT 6.5 TURBO DIESEL

by ak1990
Nov 29 '04 

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

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 ...

IN A WORD... AWESOME

by zr_1
Sep 12 '05 

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

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. ...
