"Little things to know" about 2500 series Suburbans/Yukons?

You named just a few of my reasons for owning a 8.6K GVWR Suburban...see sig

I also own a pickup but when had a K5 (full sized SUV...think 2 door Tahoe)
know how valuable a pickup, but did haul dirt/gravel/etc inside the K5. Large
tarp's after removing the seats works...except for fertilizer... :(

Also consider a full sized van, as that is my first choice (still is today) except
they don't come with 4x4 from the OEM, nor big blocks...
