1994 GMC Sonoma SLS review from North America
"Good value"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Transmission has been the only mentionable problem with this vehicle. I'm the only owner and I bought it new and have had the transmission out of it twice. It's a manual, but has been a freeway vehicle. It was back in the first year for transmission work and was never the same again.
The window cranks brake also, they are pot metal and brake on a bi-annual basis.
General comments?
Solid truck that has been worked a good deal. We use it for are business and it has had some miles with a trailer behind it and on occasion it has been overloaded a good amount.
Good power, and good handling. I have had it a long time and can't seem to part with her.
A great truck for light duty work, and a reliable well built vehicle. If you take care of it, it will take care of you.
