1997 Chevrolet C1500 review from North America
"Reliable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Intake manifold gasket blew at 150009 miles.
Fuel pump went out at 151000 miles.
Heater core just recently went out at 155900.
General comments?
I love the Z71 and will buy another one.
They're the best trucks out on the road for full size pickups and they get the job done.
Problems started happening at 150000 miles. But you can expect that from a v8.
Great offroading capabilities and is easy to maneuver in the woods.

  | Just wish it had a carburetor so it was easier to work on |
| A great choice among full size trucks |
