Which Engine Would You option? V8 Gasser or Diesel?
diesel fr
Diesel for sure.
Diesel costs to much but don't mind that
Long Trips/commutes around 10-20 miles on highway Diesel,
Short trips/City driving Gas.
Diesels emissions systems don't last long doing short trips you'll kill it.
for those huge heavy cars, diesels are a great choice.
We always had a Suburban growing up! My parents had 4 kids and we lived out in the sticks, needing the 4WD. My mom refused to have anything Ford/Lincoln because she said they ride too rough. Our last Suburban we had was a 2000 and my mom had it for 17 years, 230k miles, and she cried when she sold it to downsize since we were all out of the house. We had so many memories with that Suburban.
We love our diesel suburban, owned it 2 years and not a single issue. Being a 2022 model, it does not have supercruse. Use it on road trips and towing our boat to different lakes all over the state. Towing our yamaha AR195 boat (with a full 30 gallon gas tank on the boat), it averages 17-18mpg going about 75mph. I always tow in L9 which locks out the 10th gear overdrive and keeps the rpm's a few hundred higher (still well below 2k at highway speeds). L9 towing reduces shifting, reduces transmission temps, and cuts down on DEF usage. The oil pump belt isn't a big deal to me, probably something we will only have to do once during ownership. Plan on keeping it past 200k miles and probably drive it another 15 years.
7:35 “off-road excursion, no offense” -nice one 😂
Most of the time I think self-driving tech in cars are just dumb, like you should be engaged and paying attention while driving. But then I remember the level of NPC that most drivers are on the road, and I realize it's actually probably driving better than most of them.
Lol, not really
Mercedes is the only Manufacturer It has autonomous driving where you can take your eyes off the road and onto the screen and play video games or surf the internet.
Yes. Computers can make decisions and react a lot better than humans. It’s not there yet, but eventually the roads will be a lot safer.
Just hope they're accounting for bikes when developing shit.
@@ElliWoelfin they are. You can see this on teslas screens.
Omg a 2024 car WITH BUTTONS
the perks of a cheap interior lol
Don’t worry, the 2025 facelift of this truck is here to ruin that
I love my buttons and dials
@@rosestrohm7986 Cheap?
Unfortunately reliability went out the window but it would be a nice rental car for trips although at that point I’d rent out a denali
I remember growing up 40 years ago and The Suburban WAS the only SUV that existed. It was a big truck on frame. Loud diesels, column shift, and all the refinement of a tractor trailer.
That truck is quick for a rolling city block. You can manipulate HP numbers with different formulas. But torque is a mathematical certainty. Diesels have ALL the torque down low for grunt and go. That Suburban is so refined! Such a great road trip machine for the entire children's soccer team.
100K
Haha. We’re probably the same age and I remember riding in one as a kid and it was so loud and uncomfortable. I haven’t been in the latest gen, and after this video I want to check it out.
Ideally a electric Tahoe would be perfect for me.
Tedward: "Single person, who just exists in the world".
Me: did he jus dis me??🤣🤣
I’m a single person and would buy this because I drive Uber/Lyft and wish I had gotten a 528d or X5d instead of my 328d.
Diesel cars should be more common in America, like they are in Europe. It’s how they can tow massive loads without needing an extremely impractical F250
Don’t even get me started. Americans will buy a $100,000 monster truck of a Ford F350 diesel or something, lift it and put huge offroad tires on it, just to haul their family around 😂 or even just to pull around a lawnmower and a couple of weedeaters for a landscaping company, something that could easily be pulled with a little gas truck or even an SUV. But they need that huge monster truck to match their ego, or to compensate for something else.
The US has much more stringent NOx emissions regulations making diesel engines more expensive to produce and maintain (extra emissions control equipment and less reliability), so normal/avg cars will never see diesel options. Then there's VW dieselgate which greatly soured diesels in US consumer minds. With how cheap gas/diesel is in the US, the MPG advantage diesels have is pretty much a moot point; diesel does get 25-35% better mileage, but costs 10-20% more, you would only be saving a few dollars per fill up.
The gas obsession in the U.S is odd. Even those massive full size RVs have gas engines it’s ridiculous. We need cars and vans with diesels here desperately
I've always felt diesel is the superior fuel in almost every way, and that it never got a real chance here in the states
@@nchondakid Or hear me out it’s people hobby and passion to have nice cars and modify them how they like. What’s your hobby so I can make fun of and trash talk you?
11:32 "He's transportin' tha HAWG"
I DIED lol
That sounded a bit like mr regular from Regular Car Reviews. Had to do a double take ngl.
Lmao that was a good one
GOBBLESS
GM is seriously killing it with their current line up. 40 years ago, the Suburban was a truck with a roof, the 6.2 diesel sounded like a tractor and was about as fast, and the Range Rover was king. Screw Range Rover today, I'll take this any day of the week.
My 14' Grand Cherokee overland ecodiesel is amazing, took me two years to find one. Deleted and tuned it; 300hp and 600lbft of torque, religious maintenance, 30+ mpg on the highway at 70-75mph and 700+ miles of range. Being able to drive from northern Wisconsin to Nashville with extra fuel to spare before a fill up is what makes the diesel (tuned) amazing for the family vacations.
Hi You know any places where I can take my GC ecodiesel to get deleted and tuned? Thx!
08:08 It sounds like the Suburban in Gta5 🤣🤣🤣
We got irl gta5 suburban sounds before gta6😂😂
@@CallMeGasserthat comment is so played out
Nah, it sounds more like the Albany Cavalcade which is no doubt an I6 diesel while the Declasse Granger 3500LX is based on an HD Suburban with a V8 but yeah you got a point
I was thinking the Sandking but I'm just glad someone else noticed LMAOOO
Any 2.0l-3.0l diesels are ultimate cruisers. I have a rare bird 2015 BMW F02 740Ld that I take on road trips, 750-800 miles on a tank that rides on a cloud on highway is remarkable, and the torque it puts down off the line! I don't see any alternatives fuel that can rival both range and performance.
Any issues with dpf filter? Or short trips in winter? Thanks I always liked the older BMW/BENZ diesel motors!
@@petemolnar6073 If you're short tripping absolutely no diesel IMO, my one way commute is 20-30 miles, and of the 30 miles its 25 miles on highway/5 miles on city driving.
My DPF is original and I'm sitting at 137k miles, and 90% of my total miles are on highway and using correct spec oil BMW LL04, I did BMW EGR recall recently, and had an error code for NOX sensor but I took sensor out clean it up, put it back in no problem since.
Having BMW ISTA/Diagnostic to measure dpf soot level and force regeneration with spirited driving, along with good quality oil and shorter oil change intervals (7500 miles oil change) helps maintain and extend dpf life.
I want to get a 1995-6 Passat diesel wagon manual from a shop in Seattle. With the manual diesel efficiency and a 25 gallon tank the shop said you can get 1200-1500 miles per tank.😮
@@J.Young808 they didnt had 25 gallon tank... no way, im quite sure was like 18
55ish mpg? yes but if you cruise at like 50, not at 75
i driver a modern 2.2 turbodiesel sedan with manual transmission and i get between 4.8 and 5.5 L/100km on real consumption (higher in summer due to AC)
so between 49 and 43 mpg, btw that's on my overall yearly driving, not on hypermilling test and i had to drive around in the mountains as well
These LM2s are something else, I managed to stretch one out to almost 700 miles on a single tank (Indiana to Rhode Island, all interstate). More people need to take light duty diesel seriously, getting almost double the econ you'd get with a gas engine for fuel that costs only a little extra, plus an engine that'll last 300k miles easily? Darn good deal
@@glutenfreejazz Eh it's not double fuel economy. On your trip a 5.3 probably would do 20+ and LM2 maybe 26? 28? That's nowhere near double and the difference in price from 87 to diesel is significant, eating up basically the entire advantage.
Finally got my driving license now i can finally watch your Videos without thinking About how i cant drive
Congratulations!
I can teach u how to drive manual
If you finally got your driver's license, i imagine it's not the matter of can you drive at that point, but just don't get too comfortable to where you're making stupid choices when doing so. 😂👍❤
@@TedwardDrives What is the range on the diesel? Versus the Gas. Thank you 😊
I've my license for two years now. These videos will still be entertaining even though you drive a lot of cars yourself ;)
It's not that the suburban suspension is so soft it hides the bumps. It merely crushes them.
😂
The Suburban E will turn speed bumps into speed potholes!
I was a little upset you haven’t kept up with Suburbans, but you won me back with “just transportin ma hawg” 😂
I love the non-POV "WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING?" gesture at the semi.
Yeah when he cut the semi off, that's a just a dangerous maneuver. 7:55
May the diesel engine live on! Now we need them back in passenger vehicles here in the US.
Diesels are just suitable for big heavy cars. Modern turbo diesels are like the old big block V8s in terms of rev range and torque which just works in a large heavy car.
Awesome vid Ted! If you haven't done so already you should drive a TDI touareg, my mom's got one, gets 29mpg on the highway, great cruiser!
This is what I like to think my GLK250 is. Diesel SUVs are road trip kings.
“No blinkers, no hesi” 😂😂😂😂
What a beauty, absolutely love Suburbans too and the fact that it's available with a diesel is just so cool to me no I wish it was a V8 diesel.
This car in a couple years will be one of those collectors and the Escalade diesel
Didn't know they have an option for diesel engine in a Suburban. That's nice.
The suv model line of the Chevrolet Suburban has been in production a very long time. If remember correctly Chevrolet first started to make the Chevrolet Carryall Suburban in the 1930s. Here we are about 90 years later and their is still the Chevrolet Suburban is still being made.
GM: "It's true hands-off autopilot. But if we're wrong it's your fault."
That's just another way of saying they don't even believe it's hands-free. If the manufacturer is unwilling to back their claims, there's a good chance they're lying. Other than the problems with self-driving vehicles in general, the Suburban is a really nice SUV.
Extremely impressed by how well these GM SUVs drive with the air suspension. They literally made an small appointment kinda fun to drive.
Completely agree with you. This is why here in the UK and Europe the majority of people have always opted for diesel SUV’s. Mostly 3 litre V6’s and i6’s but V8 diesels have had their time as well.
I really like the "back to basics" approach to the interior. You don't need Carplay displayed across your whole face like the new models
"we've got some kia boys, blasting up the right lane' Lmao as a Kia Stinger GT2 owner, i felt that.
"i dont pay attention to suburbans but i love suburbans" 😂 Great video as always Ted!
I just can't get over how gross that gear selector is... Bring back column shift
They have
I think starting in the 2023 model year, GM put their upgraded Duramax to replace the older versions. The older versions had 277 horsepower, 460 lb-ft torque.
the upgraded version has 305 horsepower, 495 lb-ft torque. google LM2 vs LZ0. Hope this helps!
20:30 that's frustrating, i feel you haha
Chevy high country is a best kept secret. We have had BMW, Lincoln, Ford, and Porsche. None of them are as high tech, as comfortable or as reliable as our suburban which is absolutely nuts to say. Chevy has elevated their game to an insane extent! I absolutely love it.
I love these huge vehicles, but we need to *also* have small basic cars.
Being an owner of an disel surbarban this makes me hate gas and it also has a lot of range
Its good for road trips
I think 15 years down the line these diesels will be super sought after and will have a diehard fan base, especially with the option that you could rebuild the engine
Nice suburban even nicer lawn. I live in ma even with sprinklers my grass is cooked. Not much rain
Whoooff, i love these Cars.❤
I’m really excited to see the redesign next year in person! These are a blast to drive
In Europe we have the GLS400d that averages around 35 mpg. Very good Allrounder
I never thought I'd say this but this SUV is pretty sick, I wish they'd make something similar but in sedan form
Cadillac V
A High Country Impala would be incredible.
“Old” infotainment is good. All it needs is CarPlay. The new infotainment systems are replacing real buttons in favor of controlling everything on a screen, which is unsafe and tedious.
Would totally get this or the Yukon Denali XL Duramax over the Jeep Grand Wagoneer L
dual tank in the rear for a gumball rally! non stop coast to coast challenge!
The National Car of Texas!
that highway is bananas i feel like the rules of the road are treated as a suggestion every time i drive on it.
The 3.0 diesel is the best drivetrain out there in the light duty market. I wish gm would offer a hybrid diesel.
I drove a 6.2L V8 Suburban LT on Hawaii, this one looks nice. I always hear GM getting smeared for their quality and they have made some lousy cars in recent years but their fullsize trucks are still awesome.
Anticipated head cam at the start so you walking up eye level with the wheels was funny
I'm probably biased, since I actually own a diesel, but wish you owned one like this for long trips and occasional long term reviews. :)
I think the 3.0L inline 6 is a great option. The only issue is all the emissions equipment that needs to be attached.
The only reason i know chevy makes these is because my dad's new work vehicle is a diesel Suburban. He loves it because it has tons of room for all his gear and because he fills it on the company card. Very much not a truck he'd personally own though
If i ever take a trip to the states, i'd definitely be asking for a suburban from a car hire company
Suburbans are so great at driving. We don't have this beauty but we have the Diamond edition 2010 rides like a champ. These things last forever.
You can not complain about american made ❤cars❤, bro.
What a place to live , such a paradise!!!
I disagree with you about the wheels. They're beautiful. I hate dark wheels on cars nowadays.
I don’t need them dark. Just not the chrome and design
so wonderful beautiful video my best friend i love it see so nice it make me so happy ❤❤❤❤❤
Man the new 2024 3.0 Duramax engines have 305 horsepower and 495 ft lbs of torque. That’s plenty.
My dream car right there.... Dream dad car. I like it better than the escalade and DENALI.... the suburban high country has a simple classy look
Me too honestly. I love how it’s simple and utilitarian outside but incredibly luxurious inside
@@TedwardDrives precisely
I love the interior design. It’s rugged but luxurious. I Absolutely hate that screens have eaten the entire dashboard design of new vehicles.
There is a Turn knob to your left on Chevy 1500 & Silverado & Suburban turn to your Left Performance 🏁
You have got to buy the Scarlet/Garnet taillights for your GX! To save money the DEPO ones work great
I was getting fuel at a gas station when I spotted someone next to me with their gas cap open and I saw the DEF logo. I was shocked they made diesel suburbans
not bad. my sierra with a 4.8l and 4 speed gets 20mpg highway. with my 34 gallon tank i can go over 600 miles too.
What about the drive modes
He's right guys. Please listen to him you guys. He's NOT a Parent of 10 Children.
First diesel suv am seeing since the ford excursion.👍
9:37 did anyone notice the turn signal skipped a beat?
It's a gm feature lol. My 2019 colorado does that too
We love to see a hypermiling road trip! I’ve always wanted to do this with a 7MT 991 911 or C7 Corvette with cruise control at 70-80 staying in 6th one way and using 7th going back the same way. Curious how much of a highway fuel economy bump that extra tall 7th can yield.
That water bottle is distracting. It shows as if that's an old gear lever
I was excited till I realized that the thing is the center console is a water bottle and not a manual shifter...
Thanks!
Appreciated!!
11:14 bro thinks he’s in NFS (IN A KIA 😂)
I’ve always found Chevy to have a soft ride as it is… so I dunno if I’d want to shell out the extra money for a high country to get the air suspension. I’d have to imagine if you got it with the base wheel and tire package that the tires would have more tire to it and really keep the ride nice.
The 2025 RST, which is significantly cheaper than the high country will come with the magnetic ride and air suspension as an option with supercruise and the diesel, which is incredible
What are the difference between gasoline and diesel?
And how many hp do this diesel suburban make??
Diesel engines have more torque, fuel economy and produce less CO2 emissions (it produces more soot and nitrogen oxide though). Also they last more than gasoline engines
This Suburban has around 280 hp, which might not sound much but the massive torque compensates enormously. As long as you don't take it to a race track it's an engine that will be enough for pretty much every situation
@juliussd5901 thanks for these informations I appreciate it 🙏🏾 ♥️
Nice car. Great video
Keeping your hands on the wheel is a tell about your not fully trusting hands free driving.
I’m liable if it gets in an accident. Def not trusting it
is it me or is the infotainment screen not facing towards the driver as much as I think it would
I believe it faces straight back
90k ... wonder if these things will rust out in 10 years like their pickups.
Tedward, I have a bone to pick with you. You keep adding to my wish list!! I can't buy them though :D Great video, thanks!
Haha this one is especially good!
This Suburban is still great, but the updated 2025 model with the larger screen and redesigned front dashboard is definitely a step up from the current version.
Fun fact: many years ago, Chevrolet made a hybrid Tahoe. Today's diesel Tahoe has better fuel economy than said hybrid, as does today's diesel Suburban despite being somewhat longer.
Well the issue with hybrids in heavy vehicles is that it does not help much on highway mileage, especially beyond 70 mph. The hybrid really shines in city driving. That being said, you’re still correct cuz the diesel ‘Burb likely gets better fuel economy in the city than that old hybrid Tahoe, if not, the same.
"old style infotainment" me with infotainment from 2002
The 3.0 Duramax diesel has reasonable figures . 206Kw & 623Nm . Should get around the 10-12l/100km mark . So 800-900km out of a tank of diesel should be achievable.
I like these diesel half tons, but future parts availability is my biggest concern. You can still get just about everything for the gassers and big diesels because of their popularity, but I have a feeling that it's going to be a challenge getting parts for diesel half tons in 15-30 years. However, I've seen probably just as many Duramax 1500s on the road as gassers since they came out and OEM and aftermarket support for GM products is usually pretty good, so it may not be too bad for these.
hi ted! wayyyy to slow but the mpg is worth it
Would it be a good idea to delete this diesel suburban like they do on the duramax etc
How is the passing power? Like from 65-90 when you have a short window to pass a slow truck?
Thats awesome you can get that in diesel
I don’t think raising the suspension makes you any less likely to smack a differential..
Love the video. Is it just me who noticed a glitch at intro?
Timestamp?
@@TedwardDrives 0.01-0.02
Never understood why diesels werent more popular in america during the last 20-30 years if not more. Its been so popular in europe, and you thought a country like ´merica with its vast roads and known for its long commutes and roadtrips etc would try and get more diesel cars
All those electronics are horrifically high repair bills waiting to happen. If I needed a Suburban I would go find a 2014-2018 with the 6.2L V8 if possible. One screen goes out and its $5,000.
They literally killed this engine 10 days after you posted this
What is it with vehicles costing half the price of a house or a quarter of the price of a house now a days like these vehicles are for people that have kids, do you think we have money with the current market to drop 94k on a Suburban??
