I feel like the "Toters" I see are more likely for the Mennonites. The Amish are suuuper strict here in KS. As in they don't permit the use of phones at all, they don't use zippers, they refuse to utilize electricity as well as gas powered engines, and some even go so far as to pull all of their teeth as to avoid traditional dentistry.

    Man does that era Suburban bring back memories. In my previous job I went on a 2 day service call to a now closed and torn down Janesville Assembly Plant of GM. I ended up staying there 7.5 years and saw 100's of thousands of this era Suburban being built. From the body shop, into paint, and down to trim and final assembly. Can remember one day when the body loader, that picked up the body, then tracked the frame w/engine moving along the assembly line then tried to lower it onto the frame. Only someone did something wrong and the loader hoist didn't stop but instead laid down on top of the Suburban body crushing the roof by about a foot. That place also told a new manager that they were building a special Suburban for the President of the United states. They even gave him the VIN number and when it was going to start. That new manager walked over to the "A" line in body where the trucks start off as the firewall. He then walked each step along the way through the entire building till it rolled off the line. While they built a truck once every 55 seconds it takes a firewall to become a full Suburban driving off the line in 13 hours. That manager stayed with that vehicle telling everyone at each station to be careful that it's the President of the United States Suburban. Only the next day after he went home for a few hours of sleep and came back did he learn it was all BS. He got ribbed for that forever. That plant also built Suburbans that then went to another shop in the area that converted the to bullet proof models for the Secret Service so I guess knowing that the manager believed the story.

    • @danielmarek4609
      @danielmarek4609 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      One more thing that happened at that GM plant was on the tire line. They actually mount the tires on the rims automatically with an automated machine. The rim is spun till it finds the valve stem hole where a valve stem is inserted before the tire is pressed over the rim. Once the tire is on think of it as a barrel clamps from below and above and actually fills the tire with air without using the valve stem. As the tire is unclamped the tires pops on the rim and is at pressure. Four of the "special" rims came through and were outfitted with the tires. The ended up on one Suburban and shipped off to the dealer who sold it to the customer. That customer drove it for a while and got a flat tire. What did he find? All four of his rims were never drilled for a valve stem, the machine searched for the hole didn't find it but still put tires on the rims. He had a Suburban with no valve stems on his tires. Now I know why I drive a Ford. hah

    I bought a 99 Dark Grey with Pewter lower accented 6.5L Diesel Suburban w/ 180K miles in September 2017. Paid the owner $3500 and dropped about twice that on 'TLC' over the next months (it had sat in a farm yard for almost 10 years after his wife passed away). New: Brakes, Tires, Shocks, Carpet, Oil Cooler, Turbo, Injectors, Tune, PMD relocation, Stereo, Speakers, lights (interior and exterior LEDs) Door Lock mechanisms, Weather striping around the doors, blah blah and hours getting all the light rust addressed and couple of heavy rusted spots repaired and painted. It ran fine before and much better afterwards. Looked fantastic, drove like a dream, great fuel mileage, decent power for a 6.5 with mild tune. My buddy liked it so much he bought a Burgandy on SIlver 96 7.4 L, Anyway, first long road trip I get T-Boned 500 miles from home by a red light running Jeep Patriot....broken heart along with frame, front diff, transfer case, wheel, radiator, radiator core, lights and a big time concussion from getting 'hit' by the driver's window as the truck rotated under me. Still waiting on the insurance for medical to settle and 'the heart's memory' to eliminate the bad and magnify the good...wonder which will happen first?

    I had a tan Suburban for a while that came stock with the same 350ci TPI motor found in the Z28. I had never seen that factory before. It had push button 4x4 even though it sat pretty low to the ground. Two 15 gal fuel tanks stuffed under it. It had other features I had never seen before like 3dr row seating that split in the middle so you could fold down just one side, heat and AC controls in the back for the 2nd row and vents for the third, reading lights for all seating positions in the back, pockets on the back of the driver, passenger and 2nd row seats, sun roof for second and 3rd row that popped up in the rear, a 1/4 window that slid open for the 3rd row to get outside air and stuff I am probably forgetting. To take care of the kids on road trips or if they had to go out on a job with me it had a small fridge and microwave in the back, tv's in the driver and passenger headrest, 2 dvd players so they dont fight over what to watch, a playstation 2, blankets and pillows. In the back was a flat top, short tool box covered in the same carpet as the floor to keep my water detecting meters and thermal camera in (I was a water damage restoration contractor) the front had a rack to hold my laptop and a potable full color laser printer to produce job bids or work on finances with my book keeper while I was on a job site. It always got looks and questions about the giant 22" chrome wheels with little sidewall tires that the only reason they did not stick out the side was it had some factory fender flares that I had never seen on any other. The tires were 245/30/22. This one other than the fender flares, sliding rear window openings, custom roof rack for mountain bikes and wheels looked normal. Under the hood was crazy power (it would roast tge tires off the line & on wet pavement spin all 4 if in 4x4) and the interior was like a conversion van.

    Literally grew up with Subrubans. My Dad started with the little short wheelbase '63 Suburban, then 67, 71, and 75. After the oil crisis hit in the 70s, he decided that 75 cent gas was too expensive to burn in a 12 mpg truck. Also 2-3 of his 5 kids had moved out, so he was mostly hauling the guys at work to lunch with it. He built a false floor in the back to store camping stuff underneath, and got a 4 inch thick chunk of foam rubber and my Mom made a cover for it and put it in back. In the days before seat belt laws, he had invented the very best way to take 5 kids on long car trips. You could sit back there and play games, take naps, separate unruly kids, etc. It was awesome! He drove it all over the great plains and the Rockies on vacations hauling all of our camping gear, 5 kids, and a boat. Good times!
    Just my 2 cents, but yeah, 90's Suburbans are difficult to find since most have disintegrated into piles of rust by now. A guy where I work had one that literally had no rocker panels because they had completely rusted out.

    I have the same profound love for the 89-99 Chevy suburban and the trucks this means absolutely all of them. I have had two K1500 one was a 94 the other was a 95. When I was a kid our family get around was a 93 suburban that had all of the dealership problems. It had the Chevy interior and the GMC interior. One day my dad and I went out hunting and found ourselves teetering the edge of a cliff high centered just like it were a movie. We were able to slam enough force to gain momentum but only backwards, We were taking out trees left and right about 4-8 inches in outside diameter. Not one dent in the bumper nothing was tore to shreds and mom to this day still doesn’t know about our awesome father-son memory. Best generation of of cheap trucks to date.

It had a 42 gallon fuel tank, with a full tank of gas in Cincinnati, it would get to Atlanta, Ga, refill and when it got to Orlando, Fl it still had half a tank. Donated it to Good Will with 187,000 miles, fuel and brake lines were rusting, Suburban's are Great vehicles. It was 2 wheel drive, still would go through snow up to the front bumper with no problem, just keep the 42 gallon fuel tank full.

    When it popped up the whole thing was just right, and maybe the coolest seller ever. Flawless easy and good deal, everything just clicked.
    She turns 20 years old pretty soon, and just a tad over 20k miles... looks and drives better than new.
    Sometimes I think the right truck (or car) is kind of like a pet... maybe you just need to find each other.

    A yoder toter was a legitimate gig here in the buckeye state. The Amish and Mennonite communities have had to change their lifestyle since then. The old way was to farm, pass the farm onto the kids and so on and so forth. The decrease in the profitability in farming along with the increase in land prices have forced them to have to adapt and take other career options. But anyway basically the Yoder toter made pretty much the same amount as one of the load of carpenters or tradesman that they transported.
