Extremely rare QUADRASTEER 2003 Chevy Suburban 2500 LT 4x4

Do NOT let the mileage scare you...this suburban is in mechanically excellent condition. Due in part to meticulous service/maintenance of course but also because the first owner flat towed it behind a diesel RV for the majority of the first 100K. This added miles to the odometer but not to the majority of the drivetrain components. Synthetic fluids were always used where possible.  Also, please check my feedback history, my reputation (on eBay and everywhere else) is very important to me and you can trust that what I say is true and if you have a problem I will do whatever I can to make it right.

When we bought this SUV I searched for months trying to find a Quadrasteer suburban. I absolutely love this vehicle and will miss it. The 4 wheel steering system makes this drive like a much smaller vehicle.  It has a very tight turning radius and my wife and daughter both love driving it. We are selling it because we needed an 8 passenger vehicle and this is just 1 shy with the luxurious quad captains chairs.

This 3/4 Ton suburban was ordered with every option available and had a window sticker of nearly $60,000 back in 2003. The only option missing is the sunroof but that wasn't available with the DVD entertainment system from the manufacturer back then. I added an electronic trailer brake controller as well as a stereo system upgrade with DVD player, Navigation, amplifier and subwoofer. A year ago we spent over two grand on the audio/visual including an Alpine unit which was one of the best (and most expensive) units the stereo shop offered. I paid extra to maintain the steering wheel controls. I also added remote start which is really nice in the winter.

For a 10 year old SUV you should expect some dings and normal wear. However there are a few minor issues. Pictured, you will notice a dent in the bumper from turning too tightly with a trailer, additionally you will notice a scratch on the fender flare from rubbing up against a mailbox while backing out of a driveway. When I bought it about 4 years ago there was an issue with the dash cluster that is a known problem for Chevys of this vintage.  I had the dash cluster completely rebuilt a little over a year ago and everything now works flawlessly. For some reason the power driver seat is wired backwards and when you slide the lever to go forward the seat goes backwards (and vice versa). You get used to it. There are a couple of lights in the dash that need bulbs.  The Goodyear LRE tires need to be replaced soon and if you want them replaced before you pick it up, I can replace them for around $165 each for regular grade or for about $180 each for Michelins. Depending upon the temperature the passenger side power extending mirror needs help going out/in.

Here is a list of JUST SOME of the luxury features on this SUV:

  • Dual zone automatic climate control and rear automatic A/C that can be controlled from the front or rear
  • In Dash Blue Tooth DVD stereo with iPod/iPhone input controls
  • Back up camera
  • GPS with Turn by Turn Navigation
  • Kicker amplifier powers the subwoofer which can easily moved or removed for cargo space
  • Rear Seat DVD system with wireless headphones
  • Heated Power Leather front seats
  • Quad captains chairs with 3rd row bench
  • Heavy duty tow package which includes a transmission cooler, 4.10 differential and power extended mirrors with integrated turn signals
  • much, much more... (it's worth a google)

This is a 3/4 Ton that can be used for heavy duty towing in comfort and style. 10,000-12,000 pounds safely. It has the DANA 60 rear end and the heavy duty 4L80E transmission with heavy duty 8 lug hubs and hydro-assist brakes.

I recently replaced the alternator, rear steering tie rod ends, brakes/rotors (Napa's best line) and transmission cooler lines.  It runs and drives like a new truck and I have confidence it will give you years of trouble free ownership. Please call me with any questions or concerns you have and I would be glad to answer them. 785-215-4245  I will also help with arranging delivery or will meet you at the Kansas City International Airport. You won't be disappointed. I reserve the right to end the auction early as it is for sale locally as well. Quadrasteer suburbans have consistently sold for much more than my buy it now price.  I listed it for quick sale because we have already bought a new (8 passenger) vehicle to replace it.

 

Thanks for looking,

Greg

2014 Chevy Silverado priced from *$24,585, V8 gets better economy than Ford EcoBoost V6

Mon, 01 Apr 2013

Chevrolet has thrown down the next hand in the pickup truck poker wars and revealed at least a couple of potential aces - depending on which numbers matter most to you. The 2014 2014 Silverado 1500 with its 5.3-liter EcoTec3 V8 gets 335 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque, is mated to a six-speed automatic, can tow 11,500 pounds with the optional Max Trailer Package and costs the same as the outgoing Silverado, $24,585 (*including $995 destination fee). Chevy says the Silverado also stands atop the fuel economy charts when comparing any competitor with a V8 engine - and some competitors with V6 engines. The two-wheel drive model returns 16 miles per gallon city, 23 mpg highway, 19 mpg combined in two-wheel drive guise and 16 mpg city, 22 mpg highway and 18 mpg combined as a four-wheel drive.
For context around those numbers, the most fuel efficient V8-powered 2013 Ford F-150 pickups lose about two mpg in every metric compared to the Silverado, the 3.5-liter V6 EcoBoost returning 16 city, 18 highway and 22 combined in two-wheel drive. However, that EcoBoost does have 365 hp and 420 lb-ft of torque. You can get a Ram 1500 with a 3.6-liter V6 that gets 25 mpg highway, but it has 305 hp and 269 lb-ft of torque. The 2013 Ram with the 5.7-liter Hemi V8 and its 395 hp and 407 lb-ft drops one mpg in every category to the Silverado. Its tow rating is 200 pounds beyond its nearest competitor, the F-150 with the Max Trailer Tow Package.
Elsewhere, the new Silverado gets a quieter cab with a redesigned interior, a new bed with improved load-management possibilities, disc brakes all around, tweaked steering and suspension, along with free standard scheduled maintenance for two years or 24,000 miles.

Weekly Recap: Geneva's splendor reflects growing demand for ultra-luxury cars

Sat, Mar 7 2015

Geneva is one of the most glittering auto shows in the world, but the list of high-powered and bespoke luxury cars was decadent this year even by the rich standards of the Swiss exhibition. It's great for enthusiasts to revel in the flame-throwing Aston Martin Vulcan, the racing-inspired elegance of the Bentley EXP 10 Speed 6 concept and the insane performance of the Lamborghini Aventador LP 750-4 Superveloce, but there's a reason for all of this opulence: the luxury market is big business. And it's growing. IHS Automotive forecasts that so-called ultra-premium sales will nearly triple this decade from 123,000 to 353,000 units around the world. The estimate includes brands like Aston Martin, Bentley, Ferrari and Rolls-Royce, but doesn't count BMW, Mercedes and Audi, which offer less expensive models in addition to their high-end flagships. Though IHS includes Porsche and its relatively large volume in the study, the ultra-premium segment is still set grow at about the same rate, even without the German automaker's figures. So what is propelling all of this growth in the most expensive segment of the auto industry? Put simply, there's more rich people. IHS Automotive principal analyst Tim Urquhart pointed to economic expansion in China, market recovery in the United States and a surge in the lucrative technology sector as contributing factors. This dovetails with a research report by UK-based Oxfam, an international relief organization, which found the world's richest one-percent owned 48 percent of global wealth in 2014, and it's expected to increase to more than 50 percent by 2016. View 17 Photos Carmakers are moving quickly to capitalize with new products, expanding their portfolios with low-volume speedsters like the 800-hp V12 Vulcan at Geneva, and plans to enter new segments, like Rolls-Royce's strategy to make an SUV. "Ultra-premium carmakers are looking to explore ways of growing their product offerings, and thus their bottom lines, in this most potentially profitable of segments," Urquhart wrote in a report on the Geneva show. In a nutshell, there are more choices for people with more money. It's a good time to have expensive taste. Other News & Notes 2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata production launches It won't be long now. The 2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata arrives later this year, and it's officially in production.

Motor Trend puts Chevy Camaro Z28 and Porsche 911 GT3 Head 2 Head

Mon, Dec 29 2014

Motor Trend admits, "This is an unfair comparison." But that doesn't make it any less fun to watch when they pit a Camaro Z/28 against the Porsche 911 GT3. The former has a 7.0-liter V8 with 505 horsepower and 481 pound-feet of torque shifted through a six-speed manual. The latter has a 3.8-liter flat-six with 475 hp and 324 lb-ft shifted through a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission. Yet those are only the little disparities – the big disparities are mass and money: the Camaro weighs 3,882 pounds and costs $76,150 as-tested, the Porsche weighs 3,267 pounds and costs $145,785. But they're both about hardcore performance, so MT takes them out on the street, to the drag strip, to the parking lot for figure eights and a skidpad test, and finally to Big Willow for Randy Pobst to give his professional assessment. Remember when a lotta people spent a lotta time debating Pirates vs. Ninjas? This is like that, only it's the "haul-ass good-time car" vs. the "track surgeon." Enjoy the debate in the video.
