Hi-
We are new here and hoping for some advice. My partner and I would like to do an Alaskan adventure in a couple of years. In the meantime we are also planning on off-road traveling and camping around Colorado where we live.
After much investigation, we are thinking of either a chevy suburban or yukon denali. We have two dogs, and will be hunting and fishing during our treks so will have a fair amount of gear. Thinking an suv tent attached to the back would provide extra room when we need it.
Anyway, we would appreciate advice on whether there are better or worse model years to consider, and whether there is much difference between the yukon, suburban, and z71. I imagine we could simply convert a regular suburban to z71 or better? Right now we are looking at the 2000 - 2004 model years with price range under $8,000 initially, and will do upgrades over time. After we purchase something I suspect the upgrades will lead to a whole other list of questions. My partner is great at many things, tho car/truck mechanics is not one of them!
Great to have found you all.
Thanks much, Sue (and Drew)
