Chevrolet Suburban

Unlock Ratings
This Texas-size wagon becomes your home-on-wheels on a long cross country trip. Ride, handling and braking are much improved over its truck-like predecessor. The Suburban seats eight comfortably with room for their luggage. Parking is still awkward and fuel economy is not great.

Anonymous, NJ (2002 Chevrolet Suburban)

"This is a great vehicle for long trips. Plenty of room for luggage and gifts for family. Very smooth ride on the freeway making it easy for my wife to sleep while I drive. If we are visiting family there is plenty of room for everyone in one car. Great acceleration even with 150000+ miles. Suspension still in good shape so handling hasn't diminished too much."
