Chevrolet Suburban 1500 Reviews

"luxurious space and interior refinements... comfort, plus attention to family needs..."

"...entry is easier, thanks to a lower step-in height and wider door openings." Access to the third seat has been improved by increasing the clearance behind the sliding second-row seat."

"...substantially more power; a more rigid frame and a re-engineered suspension provided excellent handling...and the interior was upgraded for greater comfort and convenience."

"...with a five-link coil-spring rear suspension that isolates the road so well you'll forget you're in a nearly three-ton SUV."

"...the Suburban's outsize proportions enclose the voluminous interior that justifies its existence."

"...buyers can choose between a liftgate or side-hinged rear cargo doors--a feature exclusive to the market."

"Headphone jacks allow rear-seat passengers to listen to CDs while those up front turn on the radio."

"Parking is simpler than I expected, due to a small turn circle and good visibility of all four corners."

"...retains the same folksy qualities that people have loved since its 1935 inception: a cavernous interior, strong torque for towing, off-road capability, and a stable, comfortable ride for long-distance travel."

"Steering wheel. Downright ugly and annoyingly off-center."

"The optional cloth bucket seats in our LS were okay, but don't offer as much support as I'd like."

"Unfortunately, many contemporary garages are just too small."

"about the same [in the slalom] as the Honda Odyssey's time [which] translates into easy highway maneuverability."

"The Suburban negotiates the turn more easily [than the Expedition did], which will give it an advantage in mall parking-lot maneuvers."

"...beats the Ford Excursion by 23 feet [in braking]... a full truck-length plus one-third."

"A 5-year-old splashing puddles in his Sunday shoes couldn't be having more fun."

"height-challenged mother-in-law found getting into the Suburban a bit of a step up."

"...enough cup holders for a kid's birthday party..."

"Even though the turning diameter of the 2000 model has been reduced by 1.4 feet, parking it is like docking the USS Nimitz."
