1991 Chevrolet Silverado Z71 review from North America
"A dependable truck that is fun to drive"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have had to replace the water pump, heater core, and radiator due to rust buildup in the cooling system. Since then, I've had no problems, but, I believe this was caused by an additive that I put in. So, I can't really fault the manufacturer.
Otherwise, I have only had to replace normal wear items like the alternator, batteries, tires, brakes, service items, etc.
General comments?
This truck has held up well and I still get a lot of comments on it's condition. People ask me what year it is and when I tell them, they say it looks like new.
The ride is very comfortable and the cab is roomy and good looking.
I have hauled horse trailers and cargo trailers without any problems. It does not have a noticeable effect on power or handling.
I installed a Gibson cat-back exhaust system, hypertech chip, and K&N air filter. The performance is excellent.
