I am
selling my 1998 Chevy Suburban 1500 6.5L turbo diesel 4x4
(electronic), this is technically a 2500 as it has 8-lug
wheels with a 14 bolt 9.5 rear axle & 3:42 gears with
the same frame and suspension as the 2500. The only difference between
the 90s model year diesel Suburban 1500 and 2500, is the
2500 has the 14 bolt 10.5 w/3:73 or 4:10 gears and 2500
badge. The two are both rated at 3/4 ton, just mine has
a 1500 badged with 3:42 gears from the factory with a
GVW of 8050 lbs (2500 is 8600 lbs). So this would still
make a good tow rig as it is a 3/4 ton Suburban. This is
100% factory, the diesel was a rare beast that was still
a 3/4 ton, but had a 1500 badge. The 1500 is also more
rare and with the 3:42 gears it makes a great cruising
truck for those long road trips for fuel mileage.
Average if you keep from rolling coal is about 18mpg.
This has "F" code L65 no EGR engine with a 4L60e
transmission, the PMD has been relocated to under
the bumper. I replaced the motor mounts
with Energy Suspension polyurethane motor mounts, not
the cheap rubber ones so they will last ($400). There is
a slight oil leak on one of the cooler lines near the
front cooler. I have the replacement lines, but never
changed it out. The ABS light is on, but brakes are fine
and were recently replaced by the previous owner. These
are the only two issues, otherwise the truck is fine.
Starts every time and runs great as it was always well
maintained with regular oil changes using Rotella with
backflow valve oil filter. I just did a trans service on
it, the previous owner also kept up with them.
The
4X4 works well and both Hi and Low function normally, it
is electronic shifting. This also has a 4x4 auto that I
have used in heavy rain and helps to get traction when
starting. It does shift into and out of neutral with the
crazy method as found in the manual. I have tested the
neutral shift just in case I ever needed to put it into
neutral.
The
previous owner spent some
money modifying the truck as well. From Heath Diesel we
have; Super Flow 4" exhaust, 2-1/2" cross over for
Turbo, BOSH high output injectors, Max E Tork
programming and spring actuated waste gate. It used to
have a K&N filter, but it was getting old and I just
replaced it with a OEM filter.
It
has leather interior with power driver seats, windows,
locks, cruise, title wheel, etc. (See window sticker
picture). Aftermarket radio with
MP3/CD/USB and good speakers. I added large trailer tow
mirrors and are powered ($250). Driver seat has the
common tear on the side and a rip in the rear seat
center, also has the third row seat. All the seats move
correctly and leather is still good. The visors are
wearing out, but still work (mirror is missing from
driver visor). The interior is in good shape for it's
age and seems to have never been smoked in. The guy I
got it from did not smoke and the ash trays are clean.
I replaced the wheels with 17" H2 alloy
with BF Goodrich All Terrain M/T tires. These are 8-lug
and fit perfectly on the Suburban and look great. I will
include the original 16" wheels and still good tread
245/75R16 tires. I just wanted the cooler look of the H2
wheels.
The
paint clear coat is starting to peal on the passenger
front fender. You can see this in one of the images
above.
Runs and drives great and been a daily driver since I have owned it. I really hate to sell it,
but I need to part with one vehicle and this was it.
Times change and I need to part with this Suburban, so
please take care of my baby if you win.

The
original headlights and parking/turn lights
were really fogged and needed to be
replaced. I do allot of night driving and
need good clear bright lights. I never liked
the look of those composite halogen lights
and preferred the work truck style single
glass headlights. So I installed the grille,
headlights and parking lights from the work
truck and I think it looks so much better.
The headlights are the new style glass H4
bulbs and new corner parking lights. I also
installed a relay harness so they are much
brighter as power is true 12v from the
battery. The daytime running lights were
disabled with no dash light showing they are
on (card pulled). This is a simple swap out
to the work truck look as all the parts are
a direct fit with no modifications needed.
The sealed beam H4 lights are 10x brighter
over the dual lights, especially the
hi-beam.
I also
added a brush guard that was Bullet Lined
with UV protection. |

The 2019 North American International Auto Show might have been a little more quiet than past years, but there were still some pretty major reveals, including the Toyota Supra, new Ford Explorer, Shelby GT500, Subaru WRX STI S209 and Kia Telluride. We also saw some lovely concepts like the Nissan IMs and Lexus LC Convertible. Senior Editor Alex Kierstein, Consumer Editor Jeremy Korzeniewski and Senior Green Editor John Beltz Snyder join me, Associate Editor Reese Counts — with Social Media Manager Michael Dylan Ferrara behind the camera — on a long walk through the show. We discuss cars, poke around the stands, dress a bloody wound and answer your questions in the Facebook comments. For more Detroit coverage, you can check out Autoblog's picks for the best in show, listen to our podcast or look at the best images from all the reveals. Finally, don't forget to watch Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore hand over our 2019 Technology of the Year award.

This month of Editors' Picks saw us award the honor to a couple of redesigned stalwarts like the Honda Civic and Mercedes-Benz S-Class. Plus, a new crossover that splits the difference between the compact and subcompact class takes home the prize. On top of this, we'll introduce you to a new term: midcompact. We'll be using this to describe those in-between crossovers that are a tad too small to be considered compact, but too large to neatly fit into the subcompact class. For a few examples of these "midcompact" cars, we'll point you to the Ford Bronco Sport, Kia Seltos and VW Seltos. In case you missed our previous Editors' Picks posts, here’s a quick refresher on whatÂ’s going on here. We rate all the new cars we drive with a 1-10 score. Cars that are exemplary in their respective segments get EditorsÂ’ Pick status. Those are the ones weÂ’d recommend to our friends, family and anybody whoÂ’s curious and asks the question. The list that youÂ’ll find below consists of every car we rated in August that earned an EditorsÂ’ Pick. 2021 Genesis G70 2022 Genesis G70 View 26 Photos Quick take: Genesis hits all the right buttons with its G70. It's attractive, fun to drive and can be had for a fair price. Enthusiasts should give it a shot before taking home one of its German competitors. Score: 8 What it competes with: Alfa Romeo Giulia, Lexus IS, Acura TLX, Infiniti Q50, Audi A4, BMW 3 Series, Mercedes-Benz C-Class, Cadillac CT4, Volvo S60 Pros: Sharp handler, stunning exterior looks, strong engines Cons: Average interior, loses manual option, small backseat and trunk From the editors: News Editor Joel Stocksdale — "I was already a big fan of the Genesis G70. It has brilliant handling, and the twin-turbo V6 is a beast. It's even a bargain against the competition. And Genesis just made it look a lot better. I wish they'd done a bit more to update the interior, but it's still not a bad cabin. Besides, you won't think too much about it when you're hustling down a fun back road." Features Editor James Riswick — "Yes, it is small, but in a sport sedan segment where "sport" means increasingly less, the G70 still delivers (in part because of that smallness).

Charlie Wilson had been the president and CEO of General Motors before being nominated to become secretary of defense by Dwight Eisenhower. During his Senate confirmation hearings, he controversially said, "For years I thought what was good for our country was good for General Motors, and vice versa." And he was right. While car companies aren't necessarily the most progressive when it comes to things that might have the slightest possibility of political blowback, General Motors should be credited for doing something absolutely forthright in this regard with its announcement that it wants the federal U.S. government not to squash the California Air Resources Board's emissions requirements but to actually create a 50-state "National Zero Emissions Vehicle" program that, in the words of Mark Reuss, executive vice president and president, Global Product Group and Cadillac, "will drive the scale and infrastructure investments needed to allow the U.S. to lead the way to a zero emission future." Filing comments to the Safer Affordable Fuel-Efficient Vehicles Rule for Model Years 2021-2026 Passenger Cars and Light Trucks is one thing. But a graphic the company developed for this announcement — shown above — is something else entirely, something that is absolutely credible, creative and clever. There is a photo of a Chevrolet Bolt EV driving along a highway, which seems to be in Marin County (based on the blurred San Francisco skyline in the background). Text on the photo states: "It's Time for American Leadership in Zero Emissions Vehicles." It seems to say, in effect, "If we want to make America great again, then we're going to do it by leading in technology, not by retreating behind weakened regulations." General Motors understands that the auto market is globally competitive, and if U.S.-based companies are going to be in the game, then they'd better be able to out-innovate the companies based elsewhere, where emissions and economy standards are not being weakened. What's good for our country ... Related Video:
