2001 Chevrolet Suburban XLT review from North America
"A sex taste for the whole family"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Squeaky door when I bought it. One bumper was loose and so I got that fixed. The big thing ran down on fuel while on the road. It's too heavy on fuel. I think it has outrageous fuel consumption. I did not realize about that until I bought it. Next time I will check on that before buying any vehicle.
General comments?
The big box is big and comfortable. I feel that it is just big enough for our whole entire family. It has big rims also. The engine sure is loud in the morning. I have had too many complains about the engine in the morning by nearby neighbors. I took it for an off road trip just recently and found out the real stuff that this big box on 4 wheels really has. It can really move over anything on its path. I love this boxy truck.
