My 1994 Suburban Silverado has been with me 14 years and 320,000 miles same engine and tranny. 5.7L Engine. 4L60 Trans. still running strong and 25 years old LIKE A ROCK!!!!!!!!!

[@justinreyman8170]

@living in a desert I just take care of the regular maintenance (though I do use full synthetic oil), and intermittently use some Lucas complete fuel system treatment on fill-ups. Mine ('97 7.4L) seems content with the care it gets. Never touched the transmission (4L80-E) beyond checking the fluid level.

I remember when these were new. Very nice back then. The design still looks good after all these years.

[@justinreyman8170]

1997 K2500 7.4L Suburban, and C2500 7.4L Silverado. Love them. They can't be beat, if you have a long drive to make. The seats are super comfortable in the second half of the 8th gen. Newer Suburban/Silverado seats are much firmer and not as road trek friendly. GM's truck engines are very reliable, too. Both are my daily drivers Which one depends on my needs for the day, or how I'm feeling at the moment.

[@JB91710]

Would you recommend the diesel if it were to be primarily used for travel? For fuel mileage and cost not towing.

[@DailyDoseOfLoko]

@@JB917102 year late response, but absolutely yes. They get a bad reputation when compared to other diesels from the same era, Cummins and powerstroke. The 6.2 and 6.5 detroits however were never designed to compete. They were meant for efficiency with workhorse capability when needed, which they do well. Don’t get me wrong, they have their quirks, most of which can be handled with aftermarket updates. For travel and only occasional towing, that 6.5 turbo will last a half million miles with good care. With non aggressive highway gearing, they’re capable of upper 20s mpg on the highway.

All through my childhood the suburban was always there when we needed it and now that its mine I wouldnt trade it for anything. Best vehicle I've ever owned.

[@mrjack8849]

My parents had a 89 GMC Suburban, 93 Chevy Suburban, 96 Chevy Suburban, and finally an 02 Chevy Tahoe. I think my favorite was the 96 which is the closest to this one. It looked very much like this one with the styling. It was only a half-ton Suburban, but with a lift the fender flares like this one, but the whole thing was a dark blue. It was a LT with leather seats, electronic 4wd, and rarity in the market...a fold-down flat screen tv in the ceiling. It was in between the driver and front passenger and folded down to face the back seats. The sound was linked to the vehicles sound system. It used the radio antenna to pick up VHF and UHF stations. It did not have a big boomerang antenna on top. It also had a VCR underneath the second row passenger seat behind the driver. In place of the cupholders near the floor on the second row, it had 2 knobs for tv controls. It was a great Suburban. It had a 40 gallon fuel tank which would have buried us when gas was $4+ in Texas. But my parents had already traded it in by 2002 for the Tahoe. I wish they had kept it all these years, because I think it would still be a great vehicle now. I would consider trying to put a 6-speed transmission on the 5.7 to help out the fuel mileage though.

I have a 97 suburban with all terains. That thing is a beast for towing. It has towed everything we have put it up against with no problem. I love these trucks, because they are very reliable, but when something breaks, it is very easy to repair. I would love to get a Tahoe with the same body style.

[@subielife4life]

The 5.7 is a great engine with the same torque as the newer 5.3vortec engines in the newer suburbans, people need to understand that is 2500 heavy duty suburban which is alot heavier then the 1500 model and you got it paired with the smaller engine 5.7 vortec.....if you were to have the 7.4 vortec then you would see how much faster it would be able to move that heavy 2500 suburban, the smaller 5.7 vortec is very strong and decently fast but only in a 1500 model....when you compare accelaration times between a 1999 1500 suburban with 5.7 vortec vs a 2013 1500 suburban with a 5.3 vortec you will see there really ain't much difference in accelaration times..... especially when both are towing a heavy trailer......the 90's 5.7 and 7.4 vortec engines are legendary!!!

[@justinreyman8170]

As a current owner of the 8th Gen Suburban, those cup holders in the second row seat pull-down suck, unless the vehicle is stationary. They are to shallow to be effective, and under no circumstance will they hold a standard beverage cup (or larger) in a curve or if a large bump is encountered. The passenger side offers far better access to the third row seating, as it slides forward. Folding the second row flat, the headrest gets moved from the seat back, to the holes in the folded forward seat for storage. This The 7th and 8th Generation of Suburban will lay waste to the modern Suburbans in durability, and ruggedness. It's not equipped with high HP engines, but they have lots of torque. They are also far easier and more affordable to repair than the current generations, as there is far less electronics to go bad. Engine specs: 5.7L Vortec: 255HP, Torque: 330lb-ft (available in 1500 and 2500, standard). The 7.4L Vortec: 290HP, Torque 410 lb-ft (a C/K 2500 option only). I also love that there is no full lift-gate option for this generation, and prefer the "barn door" option. Lift-gates suck, for tall people.

[@carlv8168]

I have a super pristine 100% rust-free '95 Yukon 4x4 SLT (leather seats) with the 5.7 liter (Non-Vortec) with TBI. I bought it 17 years ago from its original owner when it had only 83k miles on it, and have pampered this vehicle since. It now has 218k miles on its original engine & trans, and has never let me down. While I'm not happy with its rather anemic performance (only 200hp), it has served me well and continues to be reliable and a pleasure to drive (despite its horsepower shortcoming). I'm looking to find a later-model '96 to 2006 Yukon/Tahoe/Suburban to eventually replace my '95.

[@baldegl4422]

These are awesome. Growing up I always loved these. I remember my dad borrowing his friend's 94 suburban 1500 fire department truck. It was awesome. I would totally get it if I found one with low mileage with the 4x4

[@gr8god4u]

Just purchased 99 LT Suburban last month. It gets better gas mileage than my 2006 Dodge Dakota. Reverse of transmission was going out on it. I miss many aspects of Dakota but I am looking forward to good experiences with the Suburban 1500 two wheel drive.

[@Chevy4x4dawg]

As I watch this I am Camping in my 1999 K2500 . It’s a work horse, rubber floors, crank windows, but does have power locks. Yes that was an option. Mine has the 5.7 and does decent on mileage. And 4x4 is a lever in my opinion only way to go. No push button. My vehicle at work is a 2017 C1500 suburban (office has 3 of them). Holy hell electrical issues...... air bag sensor issues.... but great on mileage and still comfortable. As far as your comment about loose steering well that is a Chevrolet trade make. After 100,000 or if abused the front ends tend to get loose. Kind of how people with Jeeps accept death wobble. Any way 92 -99 great used vehicle for the money! Also have a 95 K1500 burban and a lot of other Chevrolet pickups.

[@afoster4274]

I'm an original owner of a 1995 4WD LT 1500 model with only 150k miles on it. Texas heat is taking a toll on the soft parts, but mechanically the Suburban still operates perfectly. But I still like this version's body style...nice clean look. My fender flares were taking a really bad beating from the sun, so I gave them two coats of Raptor black bed liner spray which made a heck of a difference.

[@edmunda4128]

I grew up in a 2003 Yukon XL, and always wanted to get into one as an adult for my family. So far I’m falling for this gen body. The interior is a bit wonky feeling (the front seating specifically) but its still a great work truck feel with enough seating and storage for the whole clan.

[@JohnSmith-ft2tw]

I have long wanted an excuse to purchase an old style Suburban like this. I'm 70yo, so I really tend toward basics, and don't feel deprived because of the lower tech. And, gas milage isn't a big issue. Age and wear and tear on my body means I take far fewer long trips where fuel milage would greatly add to my costs. And a solid built 3/4 ton boat is added protection in an accident. A Prius isn't gonna do much more than dent the bumper in a collision of these beasts, while that little thing would be totaled. It's either this rig, which is easier to find, or an old Jeep Wagoneer 4X4. There's another old school classic worth driving, with even less tech. And a boatload of creds and history.

The 2011 to 2013 are the very best years, all the proper fixes and updates where finished by then, just steer clear of air and magnetic suspension equipped models if you want a lift with giant tires! ;)

I got the 2001 Suburban 2500 4x4 with the 6.0, she’s a tank and still goin strong with 241,000 miles on her, that 99 is a tough lookin tank too, it would be hard to ditch my 01 for that 99 but I just about would had my 01 not been so good to me

Chevy 5.7 350 best engine ever made wish Chevy would bring it back.

If you went to the smaller rear seat it actually slides to let 3rd tow passengers in and out with pull of handle

I have a 1993 k1500 Chevy Suburban with Barn doors. I live and camp in mine with my dog. Love mountain boon-docking in my Burb.

Funny he mentions the fuel economy of the 350 (Best motor ever built by GM, btw.) - 16 mpg was actually pretty good for its time. My '93 GMC Sierra/350 TBI/4X4 averaged as much as 22 mpg. Gas was also much cheaper back in the late-90's as well (When I lived back in PA, it was as low as 84 cents/gallon in '98.) Take away all the emissions crap and it actually performed even better - which I did with my '88 Sierra/350 TBI/4X4.

@David Smith My '94 Silverado gets that same mileage too. Plus I've even outrun a Ram 5.7 Hemi which even surprised me. I was thinking maybe I got lucky and got a rare over performing truck, but I've even seen others do the same thing now, so I guess mines not that rare. I wouldn't sell or trade it for a new one, those things are ugly, plus mines paid for! haha

[@mrtyreus0]

Sold mine after the transmission croaked. Should have hit up the junk yard. Still miss it.

[@candykid5135]

if you can review 1991 chevy suburban v1500 with barn doors

[@DrivenCompanion]

When I get a chance I definitely will!

[@ericwiles8331]

Dude this is literally my truck, same year same color cept mine has a hood bug guard and window guards. Also mine is the 1500 350. Engine was rebuilt so it's bored a bit and it has glass packs with true dual. Body is nearly mint too, as my second vehicle and my first V8, I am IN LOVE. This truck is definitely a p***y getter 😎

Back in the day whenever we were in the Northern Virginia/Metro D.C. area passing through, we’d almost always see a few 2500 Series Black Suburbans that were occupied by several guys wearing dark sunglasses & even occasionally see several traveling together & they’d have the rear tailgate glass up with another guy in there with what looked like an M4 platform rifle, along with the dark sunglasses as well. Maybe they were out for a drive on a sunny day in a bad area?
