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.

2014 GMC Sierra 4.3L V6 to offer segment-best 305 LB-FT

Mon, 06 May 2013

General Motors has released more information on the 4.3-liter V6 available in the 2014 GMC Sierra. The engine will serve up 285 horsepower and 305 pound-feet of torque, with a six-speed automatic transmission, and giving the V6 Sierra a maximum tow rating of 7,200 pounds in regular cab, short bed four-wheel drive configuration. GM claims that figure is 500 pounds more than the equivalent Ford F-150 equipped with a 3.7-liter V6, and 700 pounds more than the Ram 1500 with its 3.6-liter V6. Buyers can expect to see the 2014 GMC Sierra with the 4.3-liter engine start at $25,085 including destination.
While the engine does deliver more torque than either of its main competitors, it falls short on the horsepower front. The 3.7-liter V6 in the F-150 develops 302 hp while the 3.6-liter V6 in the Ram 1500 yields 305 hp. GM says fuel economy estimates for its newest entry will land later this year. Check out the full press release below for more information.

2013 GMC Acadia priced from $34,875*

Wed, 12 Sep 2012

For those who are interested in the reworked 2013 GMC Acadia, we now know how much you can look forward to forking over. Base MSRP for the 2013 version of the full-size, three-row crossover has been set at $34,875 (*not including a $825 destination charge). If you are interested in the range-topping Denali trim, be prepared to pay $46,770.
The 2013 Acadia will come standard with a backup camera, leather-wrapped steering wheel, USB port and recycled visuals from the now-dead Saturn Outlook.
Upping to the Denali trim gets you a head-up display, blind spot monitoring system and GMC's new Rear Cross Traffic Alert system. According to GMC, most trims will also receive IntelliLink connectivity as standard equipment. The Acadia will also get the industry's first front-center airbag, an innovation it shares with other Lambda-based crossovers like the refreshed 2013 Buick Enclave. The idea behind the new tube-shaped airbag is that it can provide a buffer between driver and front seat passenger in the event of an impact, or better hold the driver in place if he or she is alone.

GM updating fullsize pickups for 2015

Sat, 10 May 2014

As Ford prepares to hit the market with its x-factor, aluminum-intensive F-150 and Ram sales stand tall enough to meet General Motors truck sales eye-to-eye, GM is putting the word out that it's going to add more features to its trucks and do so more regularly. An executive engineer for pickups told reporters that "a whole array" of changes are on the way as soon as the 2015 model year and then would likely come "the year after that, the year after that, the year after that."
Only GM knows the way it plans to go with its fullsize trucks, with almost everyone else - including its dealers - griping about market share at the same time as they applaud profits and hope for clarity and growth. GM raised prices on the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra not long after launch even as it was losing market share and getting called "the least successful large pickup launch over the last 15 years," further upsetting dealers, then Ram outsold the Silverado in March of this year and led GM to increase incentives. But transaction prices rose with the premium; in the first quarter of this year more than 37 percent of the trucks costing more than $40,000 were the Silverado and Sierra, leading one dealer to say of the Sierra, "You can't sell a cheap one," and the analyst who made that "least successful launch" comment to opine, "GM may have made the right call to go for price over share."
We won't know for a few months what any of these updates will be, but the rumored changes for the Silverado and Sierra appear to cover all the bases, including appearance, capability and fuel economy. Rumors run to higher gear counts, stop-start technology and diesel engines before brand-new pickups come for the 2019 model year, those next-generation models supposedly to be engineered with a lot more aluminum.
