[Townsend]

Not mine. Seems like a cherry one.For ***** and giggles, wanted to share with you all and pick your brains about the reputation of this engine, and if this guy is off his rocker to ask that much ($11.5k).

Cheers!

"You read that right. This is a 95 Diesel Suburban with only 64,500 miles on the odometer. I bought the truck in September and recently moved to the city so I no longer need such a large vehicle. It belonged to a volunteer fire department for most of its life and was meticulously maintained and garaged. If you're looking for a work truck, family vehicle, or tow vehicle, you couldn't ask for a better rig. There is absolutely NO damage anywhere on this vehicle -- inside or out. These trucks are notorious for their longevity and are coveted by people who know their reputation. You won't find another truck like this with such low miles in such pristine condition. Looks great and drives great and is ridiculously comfortable. The 4WD is super powerful as well.

CLOTH INTERIOR?????? The hell with 11.5k more like 4-5 instead.

Yeah. KBB excellent condition value for the diesel is $3,800. Maybe $5k just to be generous.

Oh and on top off that the fool did not even post pics of the drivetrain. He must not be getting good mileage considering he wants smaller with a stick. might be goofed a little that a repair could fix.

There's a 1997 K2500 GMC Suburban with 22k here in Cincy. Too bad it's a maroon interior...

That is wrong.

 

[ccapehartusarmyINF.(ret)]

omg 11000 wow some one should email him and say hey i think you typoed you probably meant 1100
plus thats the 6.5 liter detroit motor i think
yeah that was the one of the most problematic diesels of that era and if it actually has 64k miles on it that diesel is about shit the bed that diesel is one big giant headache and it will nickel and dime you to death i heard

 

[Goodinblack]

6.5 was a dud overall

 

[Gzes]

6.5 had head problems.. I wouldn't pay no more than 5 for it. Needs to put new belts and do everything since most have dry rotted and or just too old. Oil pump should get replaced since it sat and not worth it

 

[newbie78]

I would be concerned with frame rust on that thing. Colorado with all the snow I bet it is crusty as a mofo under there. I live in PA and I thought the rust was bad here I bet that thing has more flakes then a box of cornflakes

 

[SunlitComet]

the engine issue is not as bad as everyone makes it out to be. It like other engines almost always have a glitch somewhere.

 

[AZwhitetrash]

All I want to know it wtf is a Toyita?

 

[SunlitComet]

fishing boat from Chilie. Also a last name. Sure there is more.

I'm a huge diesel fan and all, but even I agree that his asking price is way out of line.

It's a shame that GM quit making diesel SUV's after 1999 though....

PS.... the 6.5L is not that bad of an engine. I've owned several, and currently have 277K on mine right now!

Of course you gents well know what walking into a new car dealer will cost you.

Just bring the jar of Vaseline when you go. Plus all these recent recalls with new vehicles, if I was to go out today, with money you gave me free, I actually wouldn't know what to buy?

New Tahoes at $60K-$70K, they can keep these Atari Game laden junkers IMO.

Negotiation is the key word. And I don't think states like CO dump tons of salt like you're living in that dump known as Chicago.

Had I still had my Tahoe there in that place, I'd be seeing ashphalt through the floorboards.

Many times, in the 6 years I had my Tahoe there, it sat in my garage, while I either bussed, or walked to work during major snowfalls. The Tahoe wasn't afraid of snow, just the murderous salt, and the 10's of 1000's who couldn't drive, and got their licenses from a cracker jack box. Not to mention no insurance if they rear ended me.

The saddest thing about Diesel, the cost of fuel. It should be $2.00/gal

Thank you!

Sadly, I only average 18 mpg. I wish it was a bit higher, but the 6.5L is not as efficient as the older 6.2L's were. Still, I love the torque and ability to drive for two weeks on one tank of fuel!
