Well, here she is - our 1972 Chevrolet Suburban. I've owned a lot of cars over the years but this is the first Chevrolet, not to mention Suburban. It's in great shape overall - there are a few updates and additions I'll do but it drives great as is. It's about 17 1/2 feet long, and on the trip down from Keene, NH (we call her Keene Green) we got about 12 MPG - have to do some more testing for local MPGs. I'm hoping we have her for a long time to come - hoping to keep fixing her up so she's better and better. Tara said she felt this was the start of us doing things our own way -- I said "start?" For those that are interested - C20 (3/4 ton), 350 cubic inch V8 with the 350 turbo transmission, original 16.5 inch wheels, three rows of seats, rear A/C (currently not working...but should be back online soon), born in Flint Michigan.
