These events all brought me a little closer to that time, a little closer to recalling the way things were back then. And I realized how much I had forgotten.

Diamond Edition Chevrolet Suburban Unveiled at the 2010 Chicago Auto Show Over the years many cars have come and gone, like the infamous Pontiac Fiero or the not so glamorous Ford Pinto. So which iconic brand has stood the test of time the longest? Celebrating its 75th birthday, the Chevrolet Suburban is the longest running car in production history. Through decades of changes in consumer tastes and economic shifts, the brand's key to success has been not changing much at all. In fact, the Suburban of today is very similar to the one of 1935. Practical, utilitarian, safe and even luxurious, it's been both a favorite family vehicle and work truck since the Great Depression. The 2010 75th Anniversary Diamond Edition will make its debut at the 2010 Chicago Auto show, with a special trim package that will be limited to 2,570 units.
