I'm in the market for another Suburban/Yukon right now and wouldn't even bother looking at something with that many miles.
We got our current 98 burban at 100K and now have 260K on it. It's cost me a tranny at 258K, fuel pump 250K, alernator about 210k. It's a daily driver. We get a little over 20 MPG at 55 MPH and about 18 on the interstate if we keep it under 68 MPH. After that 68 MPH the mileage goes down the faster you go. About 14 at 75. Has the 5.8 Votec engine. Been a really good vehicle that has been used as a farm truck plus passenger car.
