22.7' for the '09 2500 Suburban.

edit: since it looks like you want to be an ass about it:
2009 Ford F-250 Specs
2009 Chevrolet Suburban 2500 Specs

Think about it... WTF would have a turning radius of 52 feet? An actual bus? 104 feet in diameter to do a circle???
Why get all uptight over turning radius? This thread is about Subrubans etc. not turning radius. I know what I read and will not comment further in this thread unless it's on topic once again. Sorry to disappoint those that want to nit pick.

Dude...you spouted off a turn radius that was completely out of line. You were the first to meantion 'turn radius'....and in the same post you said the F-250's turn radius was double that of the 'burban...clearly incorrect...stated your source as 'the internet'...which was easily to discredit...because we all have the internet at our fingertips and now you're asking why dude is 'uptight' over turn radius.

No, we shall not move on. You were wrong, anybody that knows anything about vehicles knew that a 52 ft. turning radius was absurd.

You then berated me calling bull***** on your assertion. I am waiting for my apology.

I read on the interweb that Suburbans regularly get 69 mpg. It must be true.

"The internet." The place where people never exaggerate, always double check what they wrote before posting to make sure it's correct, and absolutely everything is true. Every single time! I'll bet this guy buys into all the crap people forward in their email too.

LOL!!! Or I love the ones that actually believe everything that is ON wikipedia. They take it as the gospel and you can't tell them otherwise.
