If you plan to want to do any towing id go with the 2500 but thats just my 2 cents lol

the 2500 is a beast but that 8.1 will suck fuel like you wouldn't believe. a 5.3 suburban can pull some weight too.

Well I ended up with the Suburban! Clean clean clean is all I can say. Paid $6400 so I think I got a good deal. Can't wait to personalize it a little. Gonna be looking through some threads to steal some ideas! Thanks for the help!

Bought an '07 Suburban from Texas Direct a couple of years ago, sold it in the mean time.

NOT impressed with them AT ALL. While making the deal with them they were all accommodating, friendly and a$$ kissy, ................ until I had paid for the truck. Then they were practically not communicating at all with me.

Once the Burb arrived, it had bulbs that were out and therefore a DRL was not working as well as a turnsignal, airbag light was on as soon as the truck came off the transporter. Truck needed a new oil pan gasket as it leaked like a siff, the driver seat did not move up and down, tires were pretty much shot and it had a different set on the front vs. the rear, it also needed bushings on the crossbar as it sounded horrible every time I hit a pump.

So, basically they sold me a piece of sh*t and NEVER disclosed any of the issues. I had them all addressed and fixed before I sold it. The only thing they did reimburse me for was the air bag light as it is in Texas suppossedly against the law to sell a vehicle with it on. They never accomodated me for my time I spent taking the truck to the dealer and the day I was without a veicle because of it.

I say NO to TEXAS DIRECT, unless you can go there in person and see, touch and drive what you may bay.

HOWEVER, ....................... BE AWARE!!!!!!!

Based on what I can see in the pictures, my vote goes to the Suburban. Looks cleaner, cheaper price and less miles. Not diggin' the worn down seat in the Yuk XL.

Furthermore, I believe one can haggle a bit more with a Private Party and one can possibly safe a bit on sales tax. ;-)

However, the Yuk has the bigger engine and I am not sure if you need to tow with this rig?

Agree 100%, I was going to but a Corvette from them once, and walked away after seeing it wasnt what they said it was condition wise.

Well here's a few pics. Not quite cleaned up. Gotta get the bugs off from the drive but still pretty clean. Gonna either black out or chrome the bowtie and emblems on the back. Anyone know where I can get an overhead DVD player with rear A/C controls?
