Pros: What do you like about 2008 Chevrolet Suburban?
I like the overall car.
Cons: How would you improve 2008 Chevrolet Suburban?
The seat recall is not as good in my 2004 suburban.
The dome light will not come on when you open the driver's side door if the car is unlocked. Works fine with the key fob.
2008 Chevrolet Suburban Review:
Backing up vision is very difficult. I don't like the way the keys work for seat recall.

2008 Chevrolet Suburban Review:
stii a bit too plsticky interior; doen'st need such ugly large plastic trim pieces around wheel wells. gets the same mileage as my 2005 LT; really needs thicker steering wheel, less slippery; rain sensor mecanism silly and mostly useless; owners manual mediocre in its descriptions and insructions. improved suspension, steering, interior welcome. a flip-down step on the outside step for short/older persons would be a vast improvement.

2008 Chevrolet Suburban Review:
I've bought subs since 1974(74,79,83,90,99) Had this last one since June of "98". Can't get myself to buy a new one because no flat floor, storage, small fuel tank, and spare underneath. I liked the lower rpm torque of the older engines also. Fix these things and they'll have a winner in my book!!!!

Cons: How would you improve 2008 Chevrolet Suburban?
trailer hitchneeds to be be lower,triple sunvisors like 03 Suburban, storage pockets in dash, redo huge ugly,low front bumper, add transmission cooler, arm rests in front seats
2008 Chevrolet Suburban Review:
Just replaced a 03 Burb with an 08 one. Surprisingly several little nice features have disappeared. Sunvisors went from a triple to a single visor. There are no armrests in the front seats. The built in hitch receiver is hidden in (or is) the rear bumper but it is much higher than the 03 hitch thus requiring a super long drop hitch.

Pros: What do you like about 2008 Chevrolet Suburban?
space, goes into underground parking garages, a Caddy Escalade without the glitz & extra expense
Cons: How would you improve 2008 Chevrolet Suburban?
With the Duramax 6.6 liter diesel & Allison 6 speed it is perfect. LTZ package has no second row bench seat choice.
