Before I bought the 94 Burb, we did some checking to purchase a 2011 Burb.
I have always loved the Burb and never really had a chance to own one. Today as we are much more financially stable, we decided on getting that long time cherished treasure. Yes you do buy more toys as you get older!
In any case here in Canada it seems that in 2011 I can only get a Vortex 6.0..
We had priced one out at about 62 thousand dollars CDN. In a purchasing plan it would of cost me about 1400 a month for 5 years..
When I bought the 97 Burb , I figured that if I put everything in order, even if I have to spend on a new engine, tranny plus labor I am way ahead of the game here.
Plus I do like the GMT400 style..
Given the bad rap on the 6.5TD , the Burb does not have many issues..
If my engine blew up tomorrow morning all it would mean is that it would getting a fresh new engine ...
So I believe that its worth keeping these vehicles going and going, they are tough, most of the engineering issues have been sorted and I also believe that you get keep some coins in your pocket.
