New power heated mirrors feature puddle lamps, in-glass turn signal indicators and a memory function, and extendable power camper mirrors are optional.

Bigger is Better - 2003 Chevrolet Suburban
By dyckvk - August 18 - 2:00 amWe just moved up from a 98 JGC because of newly planned camping trips across the US with our coleman camper. The mid-sized SUVs wed been considering nolonger fit our family and towing capacity needs. Weve only had the Suburban for 2 months, but already wonder if we could ever own anything else. Recent trip from Lansing, MI to Savannah, GA was a breeze. Worst thing about the vehicle is that everyone now wants me to drive.

Review 2003 - 2003 Chevrolet Suburban
By Neal Boynton - August 17 - 2:00 amThe 2003 is lighter and handles a little better than the 2000. The 2003 does not get as good as milage as the 2000, in fact it is exactly 2.3 miles less per gallon than the 2000.Do not know why but I suspect it is the different transmission. Also GM has all kinds of little nickle and dime short cuts in the 2003, like no tail gate key entry, cheaper paint in the door jams, lots of little cheap cut backs that are surprising for a vehicle that has one of the most loyal customer followings.

Highs and Lows - 2003 Chevrolet Suburban
By DBF - August 17 - 2:00 amI use the vehicle for both business and family transport (4 kids). Highs = people and gear fit nicely, ride/performance is good, fuel economy suprising Lows = build/design drivers seat has squeaked since last year (annoying), engine rattles when first started (dealer/others claim its a design problem with pistons!!! no fix short of a rebuild) Overall, I like the size and performance I just wish Ford would make one this size as GMs quality is suspect (Ive had "0" problems with 3 F150s owned)

Always wanted one - 2003 Chevrolet Suburban
By mountain - August 17 - 2:00 amI always wanted one and now I know why. The smooth quiet ride and handling blow away, the Fords and Dodges. The style and dependability are outstanding. My 1996 3500 Chevy Crew Cab has 96,541 miles on it and the only thing I ever replaced was the fuel pump. I also just gave my 1989 Chevy S-10 4x4 Blazer to my father, it is running great with 241,000 miles on it. Chevrolet truck quality is head and shoulders above the market competition. I expect the same performance from my Suburban. Plenty of room and comfort for my family and friends.

Great Truck - 2003 Chevrolet Suburban
By Charlie711 - August 13 - 10:00 amI have been happy with the truck. If you have kids, I would recommend the center bucket seats. This allows greater access to the third row of seats.

MY SUV - 2003 Chevrolet Suburban
By Dave Anders - August 12 - 2:00 amVehicle performance is outstanding. It has the ride of a luxury automobile and the versitility of an SUV. It has a very good load capacity and rides even better with a load. Seats are very comfortable for long trips.
