1997 GMC Sierra SLE review from North America
"Excellent buy"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My transmission is shifting rough when the truck is cold. from first to second is a pretty hard shift.
The engine also stutters on acceleration when cold. once the truck warms up it runs like a champ.
If anyone knows how to remedy this email me at resqjason2@aol.com.
General comments?
Truck handles great on the road. I have taken it on several long trips and enjoyed it a lot.
The truck is also very capable off road with the right tires. I run bf goodrich all terrains.
