I drive about a 1000 miles a week. After driving the Suburban for 2 months, my back problems have gone away. Feel fresh after a 3 hour drive see full Chevrolet Tahoe / Suburban review |

Rear seat leg room cramped. Aparently moved forward to make room for 3rd row seating. 2nd row seats should be adjustable front to back. see full Chevrolet Tahoe / Suburban review |

These seats desperately need more lumbar support. They're okay in short distances, but I really want the Recaros from the Evo a few hours in. Stronger side bolsters would be nice for hoon duty, too. see full Mitsubishi Lancer review |
