Awright!!! A 'burb Board!!!
 

Probably the best all around daily drivin', trailer totin', road trippin', tool carryin', grocery gettin', parts chasin', people movers ever built!!! LOL!!

Loaded with options, a 22 MPG 6.2, (turned up) 700R-4, 3:42's, trailering package, and no payment book, why would I need a late model SUV???

Mike:bowtie:

you get 22mpg? that is impressive

mike

6.2 Diesel.
P.O. claimed 24 MPG, but I can't seem to get it. (at least not crusing at 70!) LOL!
Drops to around 16-18 with a trailer in tow.

gotta love those rag burners when it comes to the mileage game...

we have a 90 V2500 Burb....its Mamma's grocery getter...and my tow rig for all our K5's....hehehe.

EXACTLY! I added keyless entry and a CD changer in the center console a couple years back. I could care less about heated seats or a compass in the mirror. Bulletproof and paid for... :D

All we get is about 14, so Im very impressed

I'm concidering a Deisel burb for a DD. The 454 I have is killing me right now at 10mpg. I found a 91 R20 6.2 that I wouldn't mind if I can get them down a LOT on the price. 92k but it was a NYFD truck. Says no rust but that is yet to be seen. It would save me about $100 a month Couse something like a CRX that gets 40 would save me $300 a month. Hard choice cause I really like burbs.

Grimy...i'd look into the cummins swap and or a 6.5 before i'd think of the 6.2...there are just a slug without a turbo...

Mosesburb is doing the cummins swap in az. from the ck5 board...he is like a bro to me and he can help answer all your questions...plus he met the guy i met in phx who works for cummins southwest who did the swap in a 86ish burby...

Cummins Swap?

Sounds intriguing have any more info on this, or a link?

Well when I wear out the engine in my 88 (it only has 82k on it so it will be a while) A CTD or a DUramax and Allision are going to definatly be concidered. Who know, I may run accross a good Duramax combo and pull it before then but not top of the priority list yet.

Right now I'm just wanting a 20+mpg commuter. 6.2 will surfice for that.

There is also another good suburban board at http://forums.vmag.com/suvsuburban0103/
