2017 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN

If you're searching for a capable, full-size SUV with room for the whole family, this 2017 Chevrolet Suburban LT for sale at F & M Auto Sales in Detroit, MI is worth a serious look. Finished in a sharp Black exterior, this Suburban brings iconic American utility to the streets of Wayne County at a price point that makes sense for real buyers.

About This 2017 Chevrolet Suburban LT

With 138,052 miles on the odometer, this 2017 Suburban LT is exactly the kind of high-mileage workhorse that rewards informed buyers. The Suburban has one of the strongest long-term reliability reputations in the full-size SUV segment, and well-maintained examples routinely push well past 200,000 miles without major mechanical issues. At this mileage, the heavy lifting of early depreciation is already done — meaning you get one of the most capable SUVs ever built at a fraction of its original sticker price. The Black exterior gives it a commanding presence on Detroit's roads, while the LT trim keeps things comfortable and well-appointed inside.

2017 Chevrolet Suburban Performance and Engine

Under the hood, this Suburban is powered by GM's legendary 5.3L V8 OHV engine producing around 355 horsepower and 383 lb-ft of torque. Paired with a smooth-shifting automatic transmission and available in rear-wheel or four-wheel drive configurations, this powertrain is built for confident hauling, towing, and daily commuting alike. The 5.3L EcoTec3 V8 features Active Fuel Management, which allows the engine to deactivate cylinders during light-load driving to improve fuel efficiency — an important consideration for a vehicle this size. Towing capacity on the 2017 Suburban reaches up to 8,300 lbs when properly equipped, making it a genuine choice for boat owners, trailer haulers, and contractors throughout the Metro Detroit area.

Chevrolet Suburban LT Features and Interior

The LT trim sits comfortably in the middle of the Suburban lineup, offering a significant step up from the base LS while delivering most of the comfort features buyers want without the premium price of the LTZ or Premier. Expect features like tri-zone automatic climate control, a power liftgate, leather-appointed seating for up to nine passengers, heated front seats, a Bose premium audio system, and Chevrolet's MyLink infotainment with an 8-inch touchscreen. Rear-seat entertainment is available, and the expansive cargo area — up to 121.7 cubic feet with all rear seats folded — makes this one of the most practical vehicles in its class. Whether you're running school pickups in Dearborn or loading up for a weekend trip up north to Traverse City, the Suburban LT handles it with ease.

Chevrolet Suburban Reliability and Ownership

The Chevrolet Suburban consistently ranks among the most dependable full-size SUVs on the road. The 5.3L V8 engine has been refined over decades and is known for its durability and ease of maintenance. Common ownership experiences include very manageable repair costs, widely available parts, and a massive network of knowledgeable mechanics throughout Wayne County and the greater Metro Detroit area. Prospective buyers should perform a standard pre-purchase inspection, paying attention to the transmission fluid condition, suspension components, and the four-wheel-drive transfer case if equipped. At this mileage, brake components and shocks/struts may be due for service — but these are predictable, budget-friendly maintenance items, not red flags.
