1998 Gmc K2500 Suburban Slt Sport Utility 4-door 7.4l 4x4 on 2040-cars
Rochester, New York, United States

For sale is a 1998 GMC Suburban 2500. I bought this truck with 43K miles and still drive it. My dad owned an auto repair business, so I learned mechanics from him. The engine oil has been changed every 3500 miles, and always used a sync blend, along with a premium filter. The transmission oil was changed every year. I performed endless amounts of maintenance on this truck, and always made sure the repairs were correct. I used this truck as a daily driver for my family and couldn’t take a chance on it breaking down. The front end is tight with various parts replaced as needed. Alignment was always performed at least once a year. The radiator is fairly new as is the battery and starter (and many other parts). The truck never failed NYS inspection. It starts right up and holds 40-70lbs of oil pressure. No smoke. A few years ago I replaced a rusty oil pan- and at the same time replaced the timing chain and gears. However, they were perfect- I didn’t need to touch them. The inside of the engine was very clean (probably from all the routine oil changes). It has GT4 (3.73) axles. JD7 8400lb brakes, 140A alt. L29 Engine (7.4L), 4L80-E (heavy duty Transmission). It sifts perfect and the transfer case has no issues. The tires are very good (see one of the pictures- they are all the same because I rotate them regularly). Belts, hoses, pumps, lines etc. are all good. Recent brake job/rotors. ABS and bearings are fine. No clunk’s, noises or rattles. Mechanically this truck is very sound. The interior is very good. Some wear on the passenger seat (driver’s side was re-lined a few years ago). The back seat is perfect, as is the 3rd row removable seat. The front seat heaters craped out a few years ago and there is an issue with the AC- if I have time, I will look into it (doesn’t seem to be anything major, from first glance). The body is good, as is the floors. However, the bottoms of the front doors and the rear barn doors have rust and/or rusted through (see pictures). It did not go through this last NY winter. You can't tell from the pictures (sorry used an iphone), but the left rear barn door is rusted out at the bottom and the lower bottom front doors are rusty.
PLEASE have your questions answered before bidding. Vehicle is sold as is.
The truck is advertised locally and I reserve the right to end the ebay auction early it I sell it outside ebay. These trucks (2500s) are getting very difficult to find. I am only selling because I have too many vehicles. |

Watch the live reveal of the 2014 Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra [UPDATE]
Thu, 13 Dec 2012UPDATE: The trucks have been revealed. Click here for all of the official details.
As promised, Chevrolet and GMC are offering a live webcast of the world premiere for the all-new 2014 Silverado 1500 and Sierra 1500. After being teased with spy shots and blurry images like the one above for ages, now is the time to see the trucks in the metal, for real (well, as 'real' as it gets on a webcast, at any rate).
Shift your eyes down just below to see the reveal as it happens, starting at 9:30 AM EST. We anticipate having loads of images full technical information to share after the webcast, too, so truck aficionados should stay tuned. We'll also be bringing you live images of both trucks too, when we see them on the show floor at next month's Detroit Auto Show.
GM planning to put its fullsize pickups on a big diet, too
Fri, 19 Jul 2013General Motors is just coming off a complete redesign of the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra for 2014, but in the US fullsize truck market, there is no rest for the weary. According to Reuters, plans are already unfurling for both trucks to drop pounds from their curb weight over the next few years, but this will unlikely be able to keep pace with the 700-pound diet targeted for the next-generation Ford F-150, a truck expected to debut late next year.
The biggest weight reduction for these trucks might not be available until the next full redesign, which will likely happen around 2019, but the article says that smaller updates could shave pounds in the meantime. Two examples given include an "aluminum-intensive" version of the Silverado that could shed 250 pounds and debut around the same time as the lighter-weight, aluminum-bodied 2015 Ford, and there is also talk of reducing weight for driveline components such as axles and driveshafts. These changes are all part of an attempt to meet strict new fuel economy standards coming in 2017, targets which will get even tougher in 2025.
GM profits threatened by glut of pickups
Wed, 05 Dec 2012Automotive News reports that General Motors may slash production or ramp up discounts in order to deal with an oversupply of pickup trucks. GM currently has more than double the standard supply of pickups, and the vehicles are threatening to dampen the automaker's profits for 2013. Typically, automakers try to sustain a 60- to 75-day supply of vehicles, but GM is currently loaded with a 139-day supply, as of last month. At the end of November, the automaker was sitting on 245,853 units.
The manufacturer says that it will adjust production accordingly before laying any incentives on the profitable pickups. Even so, there's some concern that the inventory swell could hurt the roll-out of the next-generation Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra. GM actually began slowly stepping back production in August, but it's clear the company will take further action as it heads toward the end of the year and into the next. Analysts predict the automaker could reduce pickup manufacturing by nearly half in the first quarter of 2013.
That still may not be enough to keep GM from laying extra cash on the Silverado and GMC Sierra. While the company's incentive spending was down in November compared to the same month in 2011, both the Ram 1500 and Ford F-150 saw double-digit percentage increases in sales last month while the Silverado and Sierra numbers slid compared to a year prior. Incentive spending could help move more trucks and add some balance to the GM inventory surge.
