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

Smaller Cars Endure Big Problems On Crash Test
Wed, Jan 22 2014In a crash test of 11 of the smallest cars on the market, only one vehicle received an acceptable rating. The rest received marginal or poor ratings in the study, providing evidence that supports a widely held notion that smaller cars are among the least safe on the road. No other vehicle group has performed as poorly on a new crash test than these mini cars, says the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, the nonprofit group that conducted the testing. The latest results of which were released Wednesday. The Chevrolet Spark was the only car earning an overall "acceptable" rating on the small-front overlap test, and even that vehicle had its shortcomings, IIHS said. "Small lightweight vehicles have an inherent safety disadvantage," said Joe Nolan, the senior vice president for vehicle research at IIHS. "That's why it's even more important to choose one with the best occupant protection. Unfortunately, as a group, minicars aren't performing as well as other vehicle categories." The Mazda2, Kia Rio, Toyota Yaris and certain Ford Fiesta models all received "marginal" overall grades on the test, while the Mitsubishi Mirage, Nissan Versa, Toyota Prius C, Hyundai Accent, Fiat 500 and Honda Fit all earned "poor" ratings. Results from these sub-compact cars fare much worse than vehicles sized just a little bit bigger, IIHS said. Among 17 cars evaluated in the small category, five earned "good" ratings and five more earned "acceptable." Only introduced a year ago, the small-front overlap test has quickly become a key indicator of differences in automotive safety. IIHS introduced it as a way to replicate what happens when the front corner of a vehicle collides with a tree or utility pole at 40 miles per hour. In the real world, these sorts of accidents are more dangerous than others, in part because they bypass the front-end crush zones on most cars.

Without a grade of acceptable or better, they cannot qualify for the IIHS' overall Top Safety Pick+ honor, given annually to the safest models on the market.
GM recalls Colorado, Canyon, and Malibu for airbag problem
Wed, Mar 9 2016The Basics: General Motors will recall and issue a stop sale on 1,740 total examples of the 2016 Chevrolet Colorado, Malibu, and GMC Canyon. This includes 1,579 units in the US and 161 in Canada. The Problem: The second stage of the driver front airbag inflator might not be present. If this happens, the airbag won't fill as quickly as it should in a high-speed crash, which could increase the risk of injury, according to Reuters. This is not related in any way to Takata's inflator problems, and these parts come from a different supplier. Injuries/Deaths: None reported. The Fix: GM will replace the vehicles' airbag assemblies. If You Own One: GM spokesperson Tom Wilkinson told Autoblog he wasn't specifically sure when recall repairs would begin but said it would be "shortly." He expects the fixes to happen "quickly" because of the small number of affected vehicles, and many of them are either in transport or already in dealer stock. More Information: GM recalled the 2015 Canyon and Colorado in 2014 for a completely separate airbag issue. In that case, a manufacturing error improperly wired the connectors. Related Video: GM Statement GM is recalling 1,579 MY 2016 Chevrolet Colorado, GMC Canyon and Chevrolet Malibu vehicles in the United States and 161 in Canada to replace driver-side front airbags. The second stage of the airbag may not deploy properly in certain high-speed crashes. During a routine quality inspection, it was determined that a component required for a second-stage/high-output deployment was not loaded during the inflator build. Dealers will replace the driver-side front airbag assembly. There have been no reports of crashes or injuries related to this issue. This issue is unrelated to the ongoing Takata recalls.
