Well, in a way it did follow me home; The previous owner followed me after we signed the papers. I bought an '85 2wd Chevy Suburban for $800. It was originally equipped with a 350/700R4 combo, but now has a 350/TH350 combo "from a Monte Carlo". It still retains the original 3.73 10-bolt. It's blue exterior with blue cloth interior. Front bucket seats and folding center and rear bench seats. It runs and drives great. One of the reasons I bought it is that a co-worker (the guy I bought it from) needed the money to buy a wedding ring. The other is that my little sister (17 years old) needs something to drive now that she is going to get her license; So I'm gonna temporarily give it to her to drive.

I definately think $800 was a very good price for it.

I think it's a good idea to learn with a larger vehicle.. makes driving anything else easy.. I learned to parallel park with a 'boat' of a car.. So if you can park that thing, you can park almost anything.

Own a 1985 black Suburban. They can diffently take a licking. Got into a fender bender in So Dakota and. There was probably over 2500 dollars to the other car. I only had some black rubber come off.
