Incredible comfort and reliability

Bought my Texas Suburban for $17,000 in 2006 with 44k miles. Have had the typical minor issues with over the last 100k miles I have driven. Still looks like new for a NJ car. Very quiet, comfortable on long drives and very reliable. This replaced a 33 year old Chevy Beauville van so we keep our vehicles forever. Will never buy a new $70k Suburban that has more options than I need.
