Cost
The destination charge is a standard charge for transporting the vehicle from its point of origin to the dealer. The average SUV is substantially cheaper to get to the dealership than the Chevrolet Suburban 1500. Producing an accurate gas mileage evaluation is so difficult that some think not even the federal government can do it, but it looks as though the typical SUV is the winner regarding gas mileage. The Suburban 1500 doesn't pale in comparison to the average SUV when it comes to gas mileage. With respect to MSRP, the Chevrolet Suburban 1500 costs considerably more than the typical SUV.

Utility
Drivers with frequent child-duty might favor the Chevrolet Suburban 1500 over the typical SUV. The Chevrolet Suburban 1500 is likely a better choice than the average SUV as far as hauling capacity, especially if you frequently need to carry a lot of loot or massive animals. The Chevrolet Suburban 1500 outpulls the average SUV by a massive margin.

Convenience
You will have to visit your friendly gas station more often with the typical SUV than with the Chevrolet Suburban 1500.

Comfort
While the front cabin in the Chevrolet Suburban 1500 offers a bit more head room than the typical SUV, there frankly isn't much of a difference. While the rear of the Suburban 1500 offers a bit more head- and leg-room than the average SUV, there honestly isn't much of a difference.

Dimensions
The Suburban 1500 is considerably heavier than the typical SUV. Your wallet will hurt more every time you fill up the Suburban 1500 than the average SUV because of its bigger tank. The typical SUV fits in smaller parking spaces than the Chevrolet Suburban 1500. The Chevrolet Suburban 1500's longer wheelbase will likely result in a smoother, more stable ride; on the flip side, the average SUV may give a more maneuverable feel in daily traffic.

Handling
With its tighter turning circle, the average SUV is most certainly nimbler than the Chevrolet Suburban 1500, something to consider if you do a lot of city driving; on the flip side, remember that a vehicle with a tight turning circle may feel a bit twitchy on the highway.

Drivetrain
The average SUV's engine is substantially smaller than the Chevrolet Suburban 1500's. Remember that smaller engines can be stressed more; however, smaller engines are often cheaper to fix. The average SUV could learn a lesson or two from the Chevrolet Suburban 1500 in terms of pickup.

Warranty
The basic warranty that comes with the Chevrolet Suburban 1500 isn't quite as generous as the typical SUV's.
