It's impossible to know what a vehicle will end up needing but those suburbans are cheap and a good bang for the buck.
This. My 00 Z71 has 160K and has been absolutely GREAT to me, however, you're looking at a 12+ year old used vehicle that you don't know the history on... with anything that age, it's buyer beware, so look it over carefully. The lower the mileage you can find/afford the better.
