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 3^rd 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.

Black Friday could power record November sales

Thu, Nov 26 2015

Black Friday allows some shoppers to line up in the wee hours for doorbuster deals on laptops and TVs, but the day after Thanksgiving could mean huge profits for automakers this year, too. Multiple industry analysts predict record growth for the industry for November, and the upcoming incentives could help those numbers. TrueCar predicts that Black Friday incentives could provide a major boost, and it estimates a November sales jump of 3.9 percent from last year to a record for the month at over 1.35 million vehicles. As examples of potential deals, Chevrolet, Buick, and GMC plan to offer up to 20 percent off some models, and FCA US has no-interest financing for up to 75 months from its brands. "Consumers are excited about Black Friday promotions and these month-long events appear to be resonating with car buyers." Eric Lyman, TrueCar's vice president of industry insights, said in the report. Black Friday only recently became a big day for auto sales, according to an analysis from Edmunds. Last year, Thanksgiving weekend posted double the sales as any other weekend in the month. The company predicts a sales volume of over 1.33 million vehicles for November. If that happens, it would be the beat the previous record of 1.32 million sales for the same month in 2001. Some forecasts temper the gains for November but only slightly. Kelley Blue Book predicts flat year-over-year sales at 1.3 million vehicles, but that's largely because there are two fewer sales days in 2015 versus in 2014. "Black Friday deals on vehicles have grown in popularity in recent years, and should be a big contributor to this month's sales results," said analyst Tim Fleming in the study. The combined research from J.D. Power and LMC Automotive have the lowest November prediction among this group at just over 1.279 million sales for the month versus 1.299 million in 2014. However, once the researchers adjust the figures for the two fewer selling days, 2015 could actually be seven percent higher than last year. TrueCar Finds New Auto Sales in November to Reach Monthly Record Black Friday promotions bolster sales gains; industrywide incentives up 6% from last year November 24, 2015 12:11 PM Eastern Standard Time SANTA MONICA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--TrueCar, Inc. (NASDAQ: TRUE) projects total new vehicle sales, including fleet deliveries, will reach 1,352,500 units in November, a 3.9 percent increase from a year ago and the highest ever for the month.

GM recalling another 2.7 million vehicles in five separate campaigns

Thu, 15 May 2014

The recalls keep rolling in from General Motors, evidently keen to avoid repeating the mistakes of the ignition-switch debacle and clean house. This time they're all coming at once, with five separate recalls announced together covering approximately 2.7 million vehicles.
The largest of the five actions involves over 2.4 million units of the previous-generation Chevrolet Malibu and Malibu Maxx, Pontiac G6 and Saturn Aura in order to fix brake light wiring harness, which have been found to be susceptible to corrosion. The recall is separate from the 56k Aura sedans which GM recently recalled over faulty shift cables, not to mention the previous massive recall of 1.3 million vehicles - some of them the same models - but appears to have resulted from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation that started with the G6 almost a year ago.
The second-largest campaign involves the 2014 Chevy Malibu, specifically those fitted with GM's 2.5-liter engine and stop/start system, approximately 140,000 examples of which has been found to have problematic brakes. The issue does not appear to be connected to the recall of 8k Malibu and Buick LaCrosse sedans (also involving brake woes) which we reported upon last week. Four crashes have been reported in such models, but GM admits it's not yet clear if the problem was a contributing factor in the accidents.

GM recalling over 243,000 crossovers over possible seat belt defect

Tue, 17 Aug 2010

2010 Buick Enclave - Click above for high-res image gallery
The summer of 2010's recall hit parade continues unabated today, with General Motors having just announced that it is asking 243,403 owners of its 2009-2010 Lambda crossovers to bring their three-row haulers in for inspection. The culprit? Second-row seat belts in select Buick Enclave, Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia, and Saturn Outlook CUVs have "failed to perform properly in a crash."
According to GM, a second-row seat-side trim piece is to blame, as it can impede the upward rotation of the buckle after the seat is folded flat. As a result, if the buckle makes contact with the seat frame, cosmetic damage can occur, potentially requiring additional force to operate the buckle properly. So far, no great shakes, but in the process of applying that additional force, the occupant may push the buckle cover down to the strap, potentially revealing and depressing the red release button. As a result of this, the belt may not latch, or in certain cases, it may actually appear to be latched when, in fact, it isn't.
