I have a 1997 4WD Chevrolet Suburban that I'm looking to unload to buy an AWD car that I can drive year round, and not pay out the nose for gas.

It has ~168,000 miles on it, but I have done work on it, and would trust it to drive across the country.
I recently had the transmission overhauled (January 2009).
The exhaust/muffler was also replaced with stainless pipe on 7-11-09.
Front brakes were replaced (rotors, calipers, pads on 2-15-11).
This summer I recharged the A/C, but had to plug the lines to the rear, since the AC line running underneath to the back had a hole rusted in it that would leak all the refrigerant. So it only blows cold air to the pilot and co-pilot.

It's a nice forest green color with minimal rust starting on the bottom of some doors. The leather inside is probably a 6 or 7 out of 10. The engine/tranny are still strong, and she pulls really well. Gotta love a 5.7!

Will be updating with pictures soon. Send any offers or questions through PM, or to aaronwiederhoeft AT gmail.com. I'd also consider trades for a little economical beater, or a motorcycle, or something else fun!

This is the worst dent on the vehicle, and about that much rust on 2 other doors.

I can take pictures of anything else someone would need.

Finally traded in my Suburban, no more paying for a 13mpg vehicle.

Trade in value was $1700. Picked up a 2003 WRX for my new daily driver.

OMG that's my WRX! I traded it in a few weeks ago for something bigger. If you have any questions about it,I built it. I don't think the dealer really knew much about it. I know every thing that's in it. I also have the dyno chart if you interested in it. Enjoy it, it was really hard to get rid of it after owning it for 6 years.

LMAO still in the garage if the new owner would like some awesome rally flaps for the winter months! Along with the snow tires, stock turbo, stock intercooler, stock... well you get the point.

Would the intercooler fit a 95 Dodge Dakota?

If I remember correctly it's a direct bolt on.

But my memory is kinda fuzzy these days.

To cool the incoming ambient air with more ambient air. That's at least five stickers worth of horsepower.

Yep, actually mounted on the original OEM wheels to that car.

Uber grippy wannabe-rally-car snow tires.
