1983 Chevrolet C20 review from North America
"Quality"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Fuel gauge incorrect, oil pressure gauge broken.
General comments?
The last 15 years and 75K of this trucks life it has gone nowhere without a 4k to 8k trailer hooked to it and or a ton of hay in back. It has never left me stranded or broke down. A tank with tires. Puts my 3 dodge diesels to shame regarding reliabllity and toughness. Reassures me to never buy a new pile of American junk again. Just wish it got better mileage, but then with what one spends on repairs on todays diesel tincans I could buy 20 of these old Chevys.
