1985 GMC 1/2 Ton Sierra review from North America
"" I Love my '85 GMC""
What things have gone wrong with the car?
None! When I bought my '85 GMC truck all that it needed was a complete tune-up, tires, brakes, and "minor" stuff. Two months later my wiper/signal switch shorted out and was replaced.
General comments?
What a truck! I could not ask for anything more enjoyable to own! After my truck is tuned-up I get approximately 25 to 30 miles to a gallon of gas. Seriously! for a 305 V-8 and standard transmission! I would buy another truck like this if I could. The interior of my truck is the original and the previous owner had put a seat cover over the seat so the seat was in "excellent" condition and still is.
