1990 GMC 1/2 Ton 1500 review from North America
"A very good deal"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My head gasket blew at 128,000 miles, which lead me to replacing the motor. It was a junk yard motor out of a 1994 Chevy Silver ado with 80,000 miles on it.
I have replaced the alternator several times.
The starter has recently been acting up, not starting on the first time I turn the key.
Over the past years the paint has be peeling very badly.
General comments?
The Truck is overall very dependable, It gets me to work and back everyday, and an 80 mile drive home from school almost every weekend.
It has a lot of get up and go! When I step on the pedal I am moving and moving fast.
