1999 Chevrolet Suburban Start Up and Drive 

I have 789k miles on my 99 suburban. And still running strong💪

This video brings back memories of my mom and dad’s family car. We had a black 99 Chevy suburban 1500. That thing was reliable as ever and I loved it to pieces.

I love this generation of Suburbans. I would love to own one in red, just like Tony Soprano haha

I always loved to get an older Chevy Suburban. Because the newer ones are too expensive to purchase.

The last year of the suburban being a real truck.

I love these things. I have a 1999 Tahoe LS with 105,000 miles and it is a tank. 350 Vortec engine is bulletproof. Only issue was the transmission that went out at 100,000 miles. Other issues were minor old car problems such as door lock actuators, a stuck throttle body, and leaky ac fittings. But they were easy fixes and happen on lots of cars its age. I am going to keep it alive as long as possible. This is why I always will believe in Chevrolet!

Christ, i was only 19 when you posted this. Hadn't even started driving yet! Started driving September '09 got my license in march '11... Don't ask. I had to teach myself how to drive.

I learned how to drive on a 99 suburban the only difference was it was cloth interior and had no pin stripe. The things are smooth and comfortable!

I got the same year but with the 454 (7.4) I love it regardless of the gas mileage

@larzproporath It been about 40 years now and the 69 Charger is still looking better than ever.

The Reason why I like the older Chevy Suburban's Kyle is because I like the buzzer.

I remember watching this when I was in summer school for like 2nd grade I think.

suburbans are my favorite cars, this one looks pretty clean too. I'm saving up money for a C20 454.

I like the older suburban even though I'm a huge ford fan

Gotta remember at least three things with this one- first off, it's a very heavy truck. So it's not going to have super car acceleration. secondly, the engine in that is made for torque not high-revving, high horsepower racing...and lastly, if you're talking about the first acceleration, remember he was going around a series of turns, so I don't think he's going to hit it down going around a turn.

Man that’s a nice truck

Had my 99 for a year now. Its a BEAST. I have a few things to say though. Don't know if you bought it already, or where your from. Got mine in RI fully loaded with 4X4 (the works) New snow tires and 113K miles on it. All for $5,250. So look around, because there ARE deals. Had NO problems thus far, and the winter is a dream up in the Whites of NH... ps drove to RI to get it. SAABKYLE04 is right. what drove me to get this was my friends: same model... pushing 240K Miles!!!

Im not a chevy fan, but i miss my moms old suburban, worn out, but still looked nice, had alot of memories with it.

*Woke Up This Morning by A3 plays*

my grandfather has a "76 suburban in manual. holy hell these are the greatest trucks ever!! when he died he gave it to my dad and its simply amazing still runs great. its the greatest thing ever :)

She clean man

thats my dream car but i want a 2007-2013 model to buy :)

I have a 1999 X-Police suburban.....k1500 with the 5.7 vortec. Mine has the w/t grill option which makes it a single beam sealed headlamp....ill post a vid tonite of it.....Nice trucks, i love them. O, i notice u have push button 4 wheel, no offense but i hate push button 4x4, mine has the floor shift option and i put a new rear end in mine. Peace!!!

Damn that thing gets up huh

i just bought a 96 to but for only 1500 cash which is good my 350 pulls pretty good for its weight 0 to 60 in 9 seconds

@JORDANROUBIQUE My buddie's '92 Surbuban gets 12 or so. But that's a three quarter ton with the 454 big block, not a half ton with the 350.

0:38 I like that startup

3:32 I like that startup

I think this Suburban was used in the movie Notorious

if you want that flute sound gone take out this black box thats under the dash. its really bulky, you cant miss it and the sound goes away trouble free!!!

You should do a bunch more videos like these.

@boo101895 i have a rear drive 96 suburban LT with the 5.7L 350 vortec mines is fast 0 to 60 in 9 secs these are the best suburban tahoe and silverado bodys i love 350s

lol some guy called my 99' s-10 blazer a van...i was like are you serious. it's an suv (no sliding doors, truck frame, truck v6, clearly says suv on the registration lol) i hate when people call suvs vans

Keywords for this truck in this video "go get gas" haha

If you look elsewhere on you tube you will see newer Suburbans, Tahoes and Expeditions whose engines are being destroyed by the Cars for Clunkers program. I am sure your boss would have liked to have those trucks for his lot.

Kyle you rock

I found a 1999 Suburban at a CarMax dealership with 109k and an asking price under 10k. Would you strongly recommend me buying? I have a wife and four children, and this truck seems perfect for us but I have read a lot of mixed reviews on the 99 models. More bad reviews than good. I also take into consideration that the vast majority of people run the life out of their cars prematurely with bad driving habits. I just want an honest opinion before buying.

@BluePancake1000 I think the Tahoe was a 2 door, so this quite abit heavier. 255HP in a vehicle this size isn't much

@Jac2Mac yeah, it needs a buzzer, i will put a buzzer in the 1996 Tahoe LT i want

I have one of these in burgandy. These things are really nice vehicles :D

suburban's are nice vans

3:42 I like that song

1:02 I like that song

Thank you for your honest opinion.

interior just like my 99 suburban, smooth ride, look the car

i miss our old 91GMC Suburban :(

Now THAT is a real van.

These things are fucking awesome id love to get one when I turn 16 or 17 :)

the exact same as my parents :-) they have a 99 sub with 96k i believe... they bought it for 17,000 with 70k on it... haven't had one problem yet

@LthrnZack i agree with kyle here. if not 200k more, you might be able to get 300k more. i retired my burb with 415k. well sold it. its still on road today. approaching 500k.

the engine on the 1992-1999 Chevrolet Suburban Engine 6.5 L (395 cu in) L56 & L65 Turbo Diesel V8 5.7 L (350 cu in) L05 V8 5.7 L (350 cu in) Vortec L31 V8 7.4 L (454 cu in) L19 V8 7.4 L (454 cu in) Vortec L29 V8

My grandpa likes these cars I told him if my family won the PowerBall,I would get him a blue 99 suburban

5:16 I like that horn

I love these things. Big and comfy. Unfortunately, from what I've heard, the Vortecs of that time tend to have intake manifold issues. Feel free to correct me on that.

Could you please test drive the 1998 Chevrolet Blazer

Man, I really need to find a '97-'99 Janesville-built Suburban for my dad.

The old GM beeper.

@saabkyle04 the only bad things about these trucks are their transmissions......CHECK THEM CAREFULLY

@LthrnZack I have this same truck with 173000 and I drive it every day. It is the best vehicle I have ever owned. I drive it from PA to NC all the time, and take it offroad on the beach when I get there. Strongly recommend.

love the suburban!

damn , you gotta love the acceleration in these .

I want this so bad!!! :( this is practically my dream car. I want one in blue or gray, i really have no idea why I desperately want this but I do. I need to find one soon :)

I like more the new Suburbans

You got to hate that old Chevy ignition sound.

@LthrnZack If it helps, My 1999 Suburban has 217,000 miles on it (pictures to prove) original engine, transmission, everything! The only thing (if it counts) that's wrong is the day-time running dashboard light and t-case switch lights are out but Everything works!! Love the 99

@Tbolt1000TForLife I also like minivans, especially the old 1980s-1990s 3-door models. but full size vans are better, and suvs are better still, my favorite vehicle is the pickup truck, and the only one i actually dislike is cars.

had a green one of these once very good vehicles it was a GMC suburban though.

Saabkyle04, is the vehicle you're in is built on a truck frame?

I'm getting a 1999 suburban soon except mines a type of gold color and it ,can seat up to 9 people

You know people in the year 2050 will look at this and go wow, so that's what cars looked like back then

Nice trucks the motors are good. Toyota engines are good too

That alerting sound is kind of irritating...

the transmisson on the 1992-1999 Chevrolet Suburban Transmission 4-speed automatic

Hey, if you're going to do these types of driving videos on a regular basis and it looks like you do with over 1,000 videos, you should do everyone a favor and get a windshield mount for your camera. They're not expensive, you'll be a safer driver because you have both hands on the wheel and you could probably get a ticket if you're caught holding a camera I imagine. Plus, it would make the videos better if the camera is steady instead of shaking around as you try to hold it while driving.

Hi nice truck man, I have one either model 96 with only 79000Km

actully yukon yukon xl suburban tahoe are TRUCKS not cars or vans

@saabkyle04 great trucks. mines in perfect condition

Song anyone? 1:04

Pardon Me, great song, gr8 vid :-)

I have always loved the GM Suburban from this year Model even tho I am 21

which engine dose this one have?

lovin' the offspring at 3:54

ha, so much louder and slower than the 98 tahoe u did. I guess the engine cant keep up with the huge vehicle as well.

WHAT SONG IS THAR

all of the chevy suvs have to be made on the same assembly line, that looks identical to my 98 blazer

5.7l or 7.4l?

@Tbolt1000TForLife yep, nothing wrong with vans though, but suvs are better.

Do a 1998 Chevy Silverado if you already haven’t.

what song is that?? i have the same truck i got a 98 suburban with the 350 5.7L vortec v8 its green nice video man

Do you have a jumping off vidio of this truck?

Chevrolet Suburban

can you do the Chevrolet Lumina

@vortec1500bhp Ya my rear went and i had to rebuild it, also my driver door hinge pin snapped.....1999 4x4 suburban k1500 5.7 Vortec 33" BF goodrich A/t's (i hate them) and cold air intake with ne cam and lifters

can you do the Pontiac grand am

@yelena313 it's an SUV, not a Van

Anybody knows about the real-life gas mileage?

@KamZ94 Ya but they are cheap and easy to repair in your driveway.....try fixing a german car like Audi or BMW in your drive, good luck with that

Why does the oil guage move so much? Never seen pressure fluctuate so much

Can you please do a 1987 Buick somerset
