Re: Last year of the square body style?

I never mentioned Tahoes. Centurions were aftermarket and certainly not an "affordable" offering to most. Yukons came out "about" '92,meaning they came about as a result of the changes in '92. Yes,Wagoneers had been out for many years,but not quite a fullsize,and 4wd Suburbans predated the SJ-series. Suburban owned it's own market once IH (Travelall) stopped producing light trucks. There were other smaller 4dr SUVs before the XJ-series built by foreign car makers. The XJ had been out for nearly a decade and it wasn't until other makers offered a version,just as with the Suburban for full-size,that the SUV boom began. The new Suburban in '92 played a big part in that. This thread is about the last square body "trucks" and somehow morphed into another conversation.
