Good rig but the 2003 is a one off electrical system. The wiring for a brake controller requires a new pig tail available from the dealer to solve a trailer brake activation problem. 2004 fixed that problem. The gauge cluster issue is common, as is the 4whl drive switch going out and the fuel pump.

I have an 03 Z71 Suburban and like it but I wish I had waited for an 05. 110,000 miles is alot for one of these rigs. Things will go wrong on it. I would buy a new one with lower miles.
