2008 Chevy Suburban 2500
With a loyalty rate that exceeds 50 percent, the Chevry Suburban is obviously
doing something right. It has continued to move with the times, upgrading
itself year after year to meet the ever changing demands of the game.
What remains constant is a solid, hardworking core that won't quit on
you when you need it most.
The ¾-ton 2500 is the larger of the two Suburban models. Bigger,
stronger and more imposing that 1500s, it is a true beast on the road.
For 2008, the Suburban trails as much as 12,000 pounds when properly equipped.
Available Models
The 2008 Chevy Suburban 2500 comes in two trim levels: LS and LT. Smaller
