very good vehicle

My suburban has been and continues to be our family vehicle. The comfort of the ride is number one and the opportunities that this vehicle makes for us is just unlimited. We can head out off the beaten path or into town to the finest restaurants and my suburban does it all!

Amazed

Bought it used as a farm/shooting range vehicle. is a 3/4T with 6L V8. Lousy fuel milage, but highly reliable. It was totaled in a hail storm by insurance company so next stop is salvage. as long as it keeps going, i will let it.

Twenty years later, still runs like new!

We bought this vehicle for its size and safety running a growing family around town and on vacations. We'll, 20 years and 230K miles later, and with sons now 21 and 22, at 6'4 and 6'6, the Suburban has met every expectation, and it long ago became their vehicle to learn to drive on and drive to school and around town. Of course, since I gave it up to them, I had to buy a new one in 2014 and it is a fine vehicle, but will not have the memories!

I love my 2003 Suburban

My Chevrolet Suburban has been a safe and reliable vehicle for me since a week after I had my son. I keep it in good condition and do regular maintenance on it so that it lasts. I really love it. I drove a much newer car this winter while mine was in the shop getting body work and though I enjoyed it, I missed my car and was glad to get it back. I recommend the Chevy Suburban. I know little about the newer ones but my 2003 has been a work horse.

223,000 and still going strong

This is still my favorite vehicle, though she's long in the tooth ad shows her age occasionally, it's deserved. The only thing wrong after 18 yrs and all of those miles is the fading paint, a problem that I've observed in many if not most of the GMs of that era. For the right price, I will have it repainted and proudly continue driving it for another 200000 miles....or until one of us conks out.....probably me first.

216,000 and still going strong

Our family has totally enjoyed every mile in our 2003 Suburban. Frankly, I enjoy driving this vehicle much more than our 2014 that only has 33,000 miles on it. I can't argue about ~19-20 mpg on the road, 14-15 mpg around town. The material/equipment quality of this one is far superior to our newer one....about time for another vehicle, but not sure of Chevy quality anymore, so will have to look hard before buying another one.

Handsome

I can only say that as a young man I'd always wanted one. But, wasn't able to do so. But since my retirement I finally found the one I'd been looking for. 2003 . I've driven for about 1.05 yrs. Now. And, I've not been disappointed yet. My granddaughter and her friends at school love it. They all have their own sit.

I can leave VA on a full tank and make it to Charleston SC with a quarter tank to spare. I Love my pink bowtie. Chevy for life .....

Worth every nickel, purchase price and maintenance costs!

16 years and 214,000 miles later, my 2003 Suburban is still running like a champ, and with basic maintenance expected of a vehicle that age. My son were 2 and 3 when I brought the car home on New Years Eve, grew up in it around town, 10 trips to the Mouse, weekend excursions, and now it is their car for school. However, they do allow dad to drive it rather frequently, particularly to the shop and gas station, but that is as I would have it anyway. The quality if this 2003 is much better than my 2014 Suburban, at least the soft side, though ride and performance of 2014 is still on par.

My baby

Bought it new in ‘03 Keep it well maintained. Oil changes every 3,000 miles Wash it as soon as possible after snow to remove salt. Knock on wood, not a spec of rust yet. Most comfortable car I own Transport 8 passengers or pull the back seat, fold the middle seats and haul 4x8 sheets of drywall, plywood, etc Best work and play vehicle around

Chevy Truck Legend

16 yrs and 208K miles later, I wouldn't buy anything else! I bought a new one in 2014, so this has become my son's, now, as he starts college....yes, he has grown up with this vehicle since he was 3 yrs old, and he's happy to have it!

Fantastic Vehicle

I purchased this car new in 2003 and couldn't be more pleased with the reliability and performance. I have the quadrasteer option and haven't had a single bit of trouble since I bought it. If Chevy offered that option again, I would buy another one.

2003 suburban

Although I am not the first owner of this SUV I am saying that this vehicle serves me well. The ride is very stable and has a number of creature comforts. The heated seats are just one of the many functions that give me the abliity to drive as the comfort of them relaxes my back, which was broken a few years past. I driven it to California and back to Oklahoma on multiple trips suffering little. The multiple positions of the seat adjustment relieves the fatigue that this type of trip would present. Road noise is at a minimum and use of the four wheel drive allows me to get to my favorite fishing holes. The DVD player is another joy that keeps the grandson entertained as we travel to distant places. All in all this is a great comfort and well engineered vehicle.

Fantastic car!!!!

I have had this car since it was new and have had minimal problems for the last 15 years. I love the quadra-steering and if they offered a new model with that option I would buy one in a heart beat. I won't go looking for a new large SUV until this one finally dissolves into rust, and by the way it's going, that will be quite a long time.

My favorite vehicle ever

I purchased my Suburban new in 2003. At the time I needed the 9th seat belt. I needed it for a large family, scout trips, youth church trips, girls camp loads, trips with as many of my grandchildren as I could. This vehicle has been super on wet or snowy roads. (I use the 4 wheel drive to get out of my driveway during the winter.) It has been a VERY reliable vehicle. It is starting to need a few repairs now and then. If I had the money, I would totally buy another new one!! I still plan on as many trips with youth groups as needed! I will drive it till it dies. Hopefully many more miles. Right now it has over 285,000 miles. It has been my favorite car purchase EVER! Big vehicle but great turning radius. Easy parking. Love the many heat and air controls.

282'000 miles and still hauling. A great all around vehicle. The 8 liter engine is outstanding. This truck will rust out before it wears out.
