    Any mid-late 90's Suburban owners in here?

    Looking at purchasing one, would like to know if there is anything I should look for that is a known issue with these.

    Since the drivetrain is a Vortec 350, my guess is that the truck guys could answer to drivetrain issues.

    Thanks in advance.

    I had a 1999 It was a great truck, Only thing that ever went wrong was a fuel pump, I sold it because of gas costs, they have a 44 gallon tank, it wasn't fun to fill up

    Look for leaking intake gaskets and loose front end parts...overall very reliable and decent trucks.

    Pretty much all said already, Fuel pumps get hot when you run them low on gas and burn up pretty easy, and the intake gaskets leak coolant into the heads often, but another easy fix.
