When will a Suburban Z71 be available?

The Z71-equipped Suburban is scheduled to start production late in the third quarter of 2006 and will arrive at dealerships in the fourth quarter. Please note that with the new EZ SPECs packaging, Z71 will be a suspension available across the LT trim -- not its own model. Many of the design features found on the previous generation Suburban Z71 were integrated into the total design of the 2007 Suburban.
