The 1995 SUBURBAN Gets An UPGRADE!! And Here's What's Still Coming!!

The 1995 Suburban Gets An Upgrade!! New UpDates For The 1995 Suburban!! GMT400 Gets An UPGRADE!! Here's Why The Suburban Is The Best!!
This 1995 Suburban is in for a bunch of upgrades! I show you all the parts I have ready to install as well as a new toy for the family that the Suburban is happy to haul. This Suburban is the perfect size to haul something like this Old Town Sportsman Canoe. Old Town Canoes are made in the USA and great quality. I've been searching for a good used one for a while and finally found one. I grabbed the 1995 Suburban and went to get it. I was a little nervous about how to strap down a canoe but it turned out to be pretty simple.
This entire video was filmed with the new GoPro Hero 10 Black in 5.3k and exported in 4k. The settings were as follows: 5.3k/24, Bitrate High, Color Flat, White Balance Auto, Sharpness Medium, Lens Linear and Max ISO 400.

I have a 1992 GMC suburban with just over 100,000 miles ( 170,000 kms. ) and I totally agree with you Jimmy. Burbs are the most versatile vehicles ever made. When people ask about it gas mileage as it always seems to come up and I tell them I don't care what the gas mileage is but if you feed it gas it'll do anything you want it to.

[@condeerogers5858]

I have a 98 Tahoe 4X4 with 349,000 miles. It runs and shifts perfect. The guy I got it from said it was his dad's and he went to Florida every summer. That's where the miles came from. Missouri truck with no rust. These Chevys are the best. Twentieth Century vehicles are second to none. Maybe except the 30's through the 60's.

[@1RoadGarage]

Nice!

[@lil_kadaver]

Same, I have a 96 GMC K2500 with over 320,000 miles and the guy I bought it off went to Florida every summer also and drove his other suburban in the winter.

[@GameTesterDev]

I have a 1966 Chevrolet C30 with nearly 728,000 miles on it. It currently has a Chevy 325 engine in it and it runs better than a brand new 2021 Truck does

[@mkmyme]

Great buy. I have a white 95 gmc suburban with the barn doors and am also looking for a canoe. Crazy thing is that I also skateboard. I'm 47. If you want a pic of my build let me know. Looking at doing a 4-hi beam mod next.

[@Tablesaw818]

Nice! A 1Road video right before the weekend! You rock Jimmy!

[@ClaytonSensiba]

I’m currently on my 2nd suburban with plans to sell it and get my 3rd. 1st was my 04 k1500. Then my 99 k1500. Now I’m selling the 99 to a good friend and buying the old family wagon, a 94 K2500 that has been in the family since 1999. Can’t wait to get it

[@nicholassmerk]

I picked up a 50 year old Grumman canoe this summer, it will probably last longer than me. I can't say that I'm very interested in a plastic one.

[@bandjolyn]

Hell yes, I love my 2006 burb 6.0L. You summed it up perfectly. I built a camper truck out of an old F150 and a topper, but bought my burb shortly after that and swapped everything over. It's so much better! It's all in one cab and easier to use space efficiently. I've got a queen memory foam mattress in the back and plenty of room for all my gear/tools! Love the vids, Jimmy! You've been a huge help in my burb build!

[@1RoadGarage]

That 06 with the 6L is an awesome Burb!

[@03bonneville]

You have two of the best years these trucks were ever made. Glad you’re here in Tennessee!.

[@KyleLunsford]

Couldn't agree more, I have a '97 GMC suburban K2500 with the 7.4, 285k miles and still going strong! It's been able to do everything I could want from it and I look forward to getting many more miles and memories out of it

[@jasonlajuene2036]

KEEP WITH THE 1995 PLEASE ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! Love the show when its about the 1995, keep it up Jimmy

[@Sticks-of-TNT-tf1tn]

I love my ‘98 Suburban. Same color inside & out as yours. 🧨

[@KevinNadeau]

Looking forward to see what you have planned for your Envoy👍 Maybe you'll give me some ideas for my '04 Envoy XL that has about 317k miles😲

[@1RoadGarage]

317k???

[@KevinNadeau]

@@1RoadGarage Yes sirrr!

[@travdripdrip382]

Old town r some of the best canoes u can buy. I own one so does my brother in law, I've had it since i was 18 so 20 yrs now, still love it. Btw, never leave it laying on its bottom when u store it for long. It will flatten the bottom over time, wont cut thru the water right. Always lean it on its side leaning against the wall or there's creative ways to hang them, but its easier to just lean it against the wall lol

[@1RoadGarage]

Awesome to hear! Question for ya, have you ever applied keel protection material? Like that peal and stick type... Just curious if that's something that I should do now to protect or leave as is.

[@travdripdrip382]

@@1RoadGarage I've never used it, I've heard about it though. But i have no exp with it. The most important thing when storing is not to lay it flat on its bottom over time tho. I can't stress it enough, you'll be noticeablely slower through the water once the bottom flattens out.

[@josephdowney4919]

I have a 96 GMT400 pickup. Since I need a vehicle that can haul my dirt bike I think the pickup is a better fit for me, but in the end I agree these GMT400’s are the best. Keep the GMT400 content coming.

[@benmucha7099]

Hell of a buy! Talk about deals...🤘

[@04JALD]

Your 95 wheel base is 131 inches Gladiator are 137 inches

[@carolmadera6842]

Wow! What a great deal. I was thinking over $500.00.

[@TopwaterTony]

I love my 2004 all wheel drive Suburban :-)

[@rickdaystar477]

I've got a 96 ( 324k miles)and a 98(275k miles) Suburban. Except for fluids,belts, tires,filters and one alternator they are flawless. Solid and safe performers. Driving cross country is as comfortable as a luxury sedan.

[@1RoadGarage]

That’s a lot of miles but glad to hear it!

[@edenc.m4576]

That’s funny I have a 1996 4x4 Tahoe and 1998 gmc Yukon 2wd and they run strong still. My Tahoe has more miles that at 158k. I need a steering rack soon but drives really well tbh. My 98 Yukon has 128k miles and runs as a brand new car tbh. I also have a 2016 Yukon and at 101k miles the transmission went out smh.

[@rickdaystar477]

@@edenc.m4576 I am happy with these vehicles. Reliable service and plenty of power and even decent fuel economy if you don't have a lead foot lol.

[@photog1529]

I'm original owner of a '95 Chevy 4WD Suburban with only 157k miles on it and don't get anywhere near 15 mpg on the highway...but that's okay. I recently completed a photography road trip from Texas to Joshua Tree NP and back...awesome for long-distance road trips. Was able to carry a lot of my photo gear (film and digital) without having to check any baggage if I flew instead. Setting it up now for overlanding, building a rear bumper with a swing-arm tire carrier...spare inside takes up too much valuable space.

[@1RoadGarage]

Yes, I really would like to get the spare out of the back!! But I guess that’s how they were able to give us a 43 gallon fuel tank.. trade off

[@tylerkimdura6690]

Lol the little skateboard clip was awesome!

[@a.r.o7697]

Definitely more useful than a Gladiator. You're right about that.

[@michealrobinson]

That's a heck of a deal!

[@SFCRambo60]

I was at school at NAS Memphis Tennessee in the winter of 1970 and they had an ice storm and ( sorry but I am from central Illinois) it was so funny watching the Tennessee drivers. They didn't even use common sense, you slow way down on ice and don't use your brakes at all and steer into the slide. Also chains work great but in 1967-1969 there was studded snow tires and they were wonderful but of course the idiots that spun their tires cause the studs to launch and I guess they hurt someone or a window so they outlawed them. I bought a set for my parents and my dad and mom loved them until they were wore out.

[@corymason5857]

I have a 92 burban 400,000 miles and still awsomee!. As i fix er up your channell has been awsome......i just had the water line break, your link was cheaper than anything i was offered in canada!, thanks!

[@edgarmartinez9319]

Wow what a bargain for 300 and all that extra goodies

[@tedburnell5356]

The long roof line and rack system on my 97 GMC Suburban ideal for carrying my 21 - 25 foot long racing surfski kayaks and outrigger canoes. With something that long and skinny I recommend Goodboy Kayak racks though that attach right to the factory crossbars. Also, I have had those boats on other SUVs, but I can't fully open the hatch. The barn doors on my Suburban are awesome for getting into the back with the long boats on . Cheers from Chattanooga!

[@KenpoFish]

Wow…steal of deal on the canoe. New Old Town can run $900-$1000 easy. Old Town is popular among the waterfowl hunting community. Congratulations!!

[@drewj9145]

I agree, I love my 99 GMC and use it for everything from Camping, to towing, to helping people move. One suggestion, pick up some NES tie downs specifically for strapping kayaks / canoes to roof racks. Ratchet straps can be over tightened and cause damage if you are not careful.

[@z71matt99]

Glad to see you’re enjoying Tennessee! I love one in west TN. I’ve met alot of people from out of state who’ve moved here and everyone I’ve asked said they love it here. Definitely do have our fair share of odd weather here and there but definitely love the state

[@stevelongacre5829]

Nice buy

[@manuelcruz4945]

I own a 2000 burb lt with a hd front end 280000 miles on and a nice sound system with 1 12 in sub so I can still use the room and the third row if I want to I keep it folded up

[@GameTesterDev]

I have a 1996 Suburban I put a police interceptor suspension on it… that thing can do a full blown U’y at 30 miles per hour PERFECTLY

[@ccsmith2937]

Very cool. 👍👍

[@03bonneville]

Get you a rack on the 95 to keep the canoe off the roof

[@SFCRambo60]

You might want to look for a 2 wheel deer cart to haul the canoe around with or a bike cart. The deer cart folds up and wide wheels. Just suggesting.

[@kentuckycornbread8502]

Well that was an abrupt ending…..

[@aesa3628]

I have 2016 chevy suburban with 36000kms only and its nice for family and long trips

[@lindahamilton8877]

You are awesome

[@micahyarbrough5513]

Yakima/Thule crossbars will give you some extra clearance from the roof, plus you can get wide ones in case you ever want a roof box side-by-side with the canoe, or even a couple of canoes. Plus they are flat instead of arched like the pretty light duty stock crossbars.

[@lindahamilton8877]

Nice old gmc

[@isachilcat]

Dear Jimmy Thank you for always making a very interesting video. I've been watching your videos so far. Among them, there is a video that I was particularly interested in. The most noticeable was about ATF. Next is the replacement of LED light. I have 1994 DATSAN twin turbo Zcar and 2003 Suzuki small turbo car.Zcar is type 32. The Zcar is a very popular car in the United States. If you need it, I will give you free videos of ATF change ,oil leak repair, etc. Please continue to get along. 🚐 THANK YOU 🙇‍♂️ From your fan IsachilCat YOKOHAMA JAPAN

[@bernardmiller3145]

@@1RoadGarage Jimmy, you might have the canoe backwards - the small seat closest to the end of the canoe is the stern position and used when paddling solo and the steering position when paddling tandem - good luck and sweet floats.
