Chevrolet Suburban 2500 Overview

While truck-based SUVs might have fallen out of favor in recent years due to prices at the pump and general belt-tightening, they're hardly extinct. Case in point? Chevy's venerable Suburban 2500. The slightly rounded edges of the latest generation can't conceal its sheer mass, but its cavernous interior, formidable towing capacity, and adult-worthy third-row seat and make it a great choice for those who have to move a crowd. As with all Chevy models, the Suburban 2500 comes with complimentary use of its OnStar concierge system for one year. Two trims are available, with either 2WD (10/16 mpg)or 4WD (10/15 mpg) configurations, though all models get a powerful 6.0L V8 mated to a six-speed automatic transmission. LS models come with creature comforts like a 8-way, power heated front seats, a six-speaker stereo with MP3 decoding, and separate climate controls for rear-seat passengers. LT1 models up the ante with leather seating, a standard backup camera, a ten-speaker premium Bose audio system, and a DVD entertainment system. MSRP for 2WD LS models start at $42,495 and $46,435 for 2WD LT1 models.
