1995 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 review from North America
"Good Truck!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Replaced the throttle contol unit at 125000.
Replaced drivers door handle.
Front end alignment at 115000 miles, from what I understand, this vehicle should never have to go "under the knife" for an alignment.
A pitmant arm was replaced in conjunction with the alignment.
Starter was replaced around 158000 miles (original starter)
General comments?
Excellent truck for large hauls.
Average preventive maintenance.
The locking radio is an added security for those who would be thieves.
The third door was a great idea, wished it had been built into this model.
