Spectacular condition, extremely low mileage, last model year of the Diesel Suburban. High Resolution Photos and Videos: http://smu.gs/1l9I8dt If you don't know about the elusive GMC Diesel Suburban, here's a primer: Don't you wish you could have the perfect combination of huge cargo and people capacity, comfortable, massive torque, powerful freeway cruising, and good fuel economy? This is exclusively available in a Diesel Suburban. Only problem? Good luck finding one. Well, here's perhaps the cleanest, lowest-mileage diesel Suburban available anywhere. Seat 8 adults comfortably? Check. Room for lots of luggage? Check. Ability to tow 9000 pounds? Check. 525 ft-lbs of torque? Check. Up to 17 MPG Freeway? Check. Reliable and durable? Check. On sale is an awesome combination of and extremely rare vehicle (diesel engine + Suburban) but very commonly available parts, accessories and service availability. Here's why: Super unusual combination. Less than 1% of all Suburbans had the 6.5 diesel option. GMC made over 1.2Million 6.5 diesel engines, putting them in everything from Hummers to pickups and buses. In fact, they are still being used extensively in applications from power boats to trucks. Therefore, the drivetrain is really common, and this can be serviced at any GM/Chevy dealer. (although I commonly hear the refrain "Wow. I didn't know GM made Suburbans with a diesel!" GM also made hundreds of thousands of the Suburban models. However, they made extremely few of the 6.5 Diesel + Suburban Combo. These had to be custom ordered from the factory with the optional engine, which was a $6000 option that very few people ordered. This is the last year that GM ever made a diesel Suburban. Initially, the 6.5 diesel was not well-understood by the dealerships, and there were some teething problems (just Google 6.5 diesel PMD) that over-the-years have been completely solved, resulting in a rugged and reliable engine with excellent performance. Don't believe me? Check out popular owner forums like TheTruckStop.us and DieselPlace.com, where owners rave about the performance, longevity, and durability of this drivetrain. It has been absolutely flawless for our family, and we've owned it for many years! I have owned this rig for 10 years, and it has very low miles, 124,500. It has mostly been used for family road trips. WIth the SLT option package, it is fully equipped with every option available that year. Full leather (in excellent condition, even the front seats!), heated seats, rear air and heat, self-dimming mirrors, push-button 4x4 (works perfectly). Everything on the vehicle is in perfect running order. 3/4 ton model. Set up with trailer hitch and full RV wiring. (I was planning to buy an RV but we never did. I've never towed anything heavier than a 500 lb garden trailer with it). It has never been off-road. So here it is: This is unique in that not only is it super-rare, but it is a perfect vehicle from an ease-of-repair and maintenance. Suburbans are common. 6.5 diesel engines are common. 4L80 transmission are common. Therefore I've never had any trouble getting excellent parts and service on this vehicle. In fact, many vendors have websites exclusively dedicated to this drivetrain! (See places like LeroyDiesel.com, HeathDiesel.com, and others) It has superior fuel economy, getting up to 17+ MPG on the freeway. Try that with a similar vintage 454 gasser. Not happening. It has approximately 195HP and 525 ft-lb of torque. 195 hp (145 kW) @ 3,400 rpm / 525 lb·ft (712 N·m) @ 1,800 rpm (turbocharged) The rig is almost completely stock, but I have added items that increase safety and reliability: * Hellwig sway bars front and rear dramatically improve handling on-road. * Flowmaster Downpipe (improves exhaust flow) * New remote Fuel-Solenoid-Driver (FSD) with custom cable harness and FSD cooler mounted under front bumper. (Eliminates a common problem on this engine) * PowerSlot Brake Rotors (Improved braking) * Lund front shade (I put in all stainless hardware) * Lund front and rear air deflectors This is a perfect vehicle for someone looking for a safe, reliable, rugged SUV with really large cargo and people capacity and very reasonable fuel economy to boot. I am only selling it because my kids are off to college and we aren't taking road trips like we used to. * I have kept it waxed and in a heated garage the whole time I have owned it. The paint is is very good condition, and to my knowledge it is original. Upholstery and leather are in excellent condition. See the photos. * There are no leaks on the vehicle. * It does not require any reconditioning. * No rust on the vehicle. * Everything works. * Condition of leather is really remarkably excellent. * Wheels are like-new * The previous owner told me that CarFax shows an accident, but when he investigated it, it wasn't an accident but a breakdown... he told me that the vehicle lost a coolant line on the automatic transmission while on the road and this caused the vehicle to lose all it's transmission fluid, causing the vehicle to breakdown on the road, but that the report shows it as 'an accident', since they didn't have any way to indicate a single-car breakdown. This is all the information I have. When I checked with the GMC dealer, they ran a VIN report which showed that the factory had indeed authorized a new replacement transmission during that timeframe, so this seems to correlate what I had been told. * Nothing has been removed or disabled * Non-smoker owned. No pets. * Never been off-road to my knowledge. * Never been used to tow anything heavier than a small garden trailer. |

Sunday Drive: A tale of old favorites and upcoming challengers
Sun, Oct 8 2017Sedans and crossovers dominated the attention of our readers last week, led by the completely redesigned 2018 Honda Accord. It's the Japanese automaker's flagship, and people are seriously interested in finding out how good the latest Accord is. So interested, in fact, that no other single story came close to the brand-new Accord in Autoblog reader interest. Moving down the list we find the equally new 2018 Buick Enclave. The three-row crossover has a lot to offer a family, especially one looking for a nice, quiet ride. If you're looking for the exact opposite of nice and quiet, but still want enough room for you and your significant others, the Subaru WRX that we tested last week may be the perfect ride for you. Or, if you just want to drive fast and aren't at all worried about space, there's the Camaro SS. See? We offer something for everybody. From there, we look to the future. Who isn't interested in seeing the first fully electric vehicle from Porsche? And who isn't intrigued to see the Mission E testing alongside a gaggle of Teslas? A brand-new Jeep is always a big deal, especially when it's the revival of a classic nameplate like the Grand Wagoneer. And finally, we have something completely different: the Rezvani Tank. As always, tune in to Autoblog next week for a front-row seat to all the happenings worth following in the automotive industry. 2018 Honda Accord First Drive | Feels like home again 2018 Buick Enclave First Drive Review | Fortress of quietude 2018 Subaru WRX Drivers' Notes | Turbo traditionalist 2018 Chevy Camaro SS Drivers' Notes | Demonstrative power, middling interior Porsche Mission E caught testing against Teslas Jeep three-row SUV caught on public roads — Grand Wagoneer, perhaps?

Recharge Wrap-Up: LAPD gets Zero MMX, Chevy's new inverter, Hyundai Tucson's new powertrains
Wed, Jul 16 2014Some police in Los Angeles will be riding Zero MMX electric motorcycles on duty. The LAPD is adding the fully electric police/military all-terrain bikes to its patrol fleet. According to Officer Steve Carbajal of the department's off-road unit, "It costs less than 50 cents to charge compared to using gallons of gas, maintenance is simple, and the community appreciates how quiet they are." The electric bikes, with their lack of noise and a headlight the rider can turn off, also have the benefit of stealth, giving the officers what Carbajal calls "an added tactical advantage." The MMX also has swappable batteries, is designed for quick ignition and has power reserve capabilities so the rider won't be caught with a dead battery while chasing down a perp. Read more at Ride Apart. Remember when it seemed like we'd never run out of oil, and giving your buddy five bucks for gas was actually a worthwhile gesture? Drivers of classic cars in Detroit were able to fill up their tanks at gas prices corresponding to their model year, thanks to a promotion by Hagerty Insurance for National Collector Car Appreciation Day on July 11. That meant prices from 21 to 90 cents a gallon, as the cars that showed up ranged from the years 1929 to 1989. That's about as affordable as charging your EV. Head over to Autoweek for more details and some photos from the event. The next-generation Chevrolet Volt will likely benefit from a new inverter being developed by General Motors. GM is about two-thirds of the way through the development of the new inverter, which should be ready in January 2016. The inverter, which has a peak output of 55 kilowatts a continuous output of 33 kilowatts, will be adaptable for use in other GM vehicles. Chevrolet is working to reduce the Volt's production costs by $10,000 per vehicle, which should make it more affordable, and the new inverter could help reach that goal should it make its way into the car. Read more at Green Car Reports. Hyundai is likely planning some interesting powertrain changes for the 2016 Tucson, says Green Car Reports. Plug-in hybrid? Maybe. Diesel? Probably not. "We are covering the waterfront on all alternative fuel strategies, from standard hybrid, to plug-in, battery-electric, and fuel cell," says Hyundai's US Chief Dave Zuchowski.
