1995 Chevrolet Silverado Z71 Extended Cab review from North America
"Great!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Alternator went out at 215,000 miles.
Water pump at 180,000.
3 batteries in 226,000
The transmission went out at 167,000 miles and it was our fault - we put the truck in a bind turning around in a small hollow and tore reverse out. We drove it with reverse out for 2 months and even hauled a load of furniture in the horse trailer 350 miles one way. We just had to make sure we didn't have to back up. How many people can say they have a truck like that?
I would love for Chevrolet to know about this truck. I would love to test drive their vehicles.
General comments?
I couldn't ask for a better truck, we have pulled a 16 ft. horse trailer for 5 years.
