Hi Everyone,

The transmission went out on my 2012 Suburban Z71 when towing my travel trailer about a month ago. Instead of putting $12k in beefing up a 1/2 ton, which would still only have 1,400 lbs. of payload, I decided to look for a 3/4 'burb. Found this little gem an hour from my house: a 2004 Suburban 2500 LT 4x4 Quadrasteer with a 6.0L, 4L80-E, and 4.10 gears. It came with all repair and maintenance records, even fuel receipts, from 2006 when the second owner bought it. Transmission rebuilt with a new torque converter 20k miles ago, new alternator and battery three months ago, oil changes, Quadrasteer, and differential services, tire receipts. Really a neat find and a neat vehicle.
