This Suburban shows 30k miles and is offered at no reserve with a window sticker, partial service records, a clean Carfax report, and a clean Iowa title in the name of the seller’s LLC.

The truck is finished in Victory Red (74U) with tinted glass and features chrome-finished bumpers, a roof rack, a rear tow-hitch receiver, black lower side moldings, and integrated side steps. The seller notes that the high-beam headlights need to be adjusted, and there are chips in on the grille and hood as well as peeling chrome inside the headlight bezels.
