2002 GMC Sonoma ZR5 review from North America
"It is a perfect truck for a woman"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have not had any problems with the truck. It is very reliable. It is excellent in the snow and ice as long as it is in four wheel drive. It is very light on the rear end so it is useless if not in four wheel drive on snow and ice.
General comments?
I like the truck very much.
The one thing I do not like is that the floor on the passenger side in the front dips down at an angle so doesn't leave much foot room.
Love the quad cab.
I wouldn't buy another truck without the quad cab with the four doors.
The ZR5 is a very sporty looking truck.
I did a comparison with other trucks before making my purchase.
I tried out the Chevy S-10 which is the same exact truck except the Chevy is plain Jane and the ZR5 is a sporty package.
I tried out the Dodge Dakota Sport quad cab, but it was a little too big for me. It sits up a lot higher.
I am happy with the choice I made.
