1994 Chevrolet K1500 W/T 4.3 from North America

Summary:

Like a rock

Faults:

Just recently changed fuel tank.

Replaced brake line.

Replaced exhaust a year ago.

Very reliable. The 4.3 is a great motor.

If towing, get a standard tranny.

General Comments:

18 MPG average, great 4x4 in the winter.

Change the oil and tune up every 50,000, and it will last forever. It's easy to maintain yourself.

Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

"Like a rock". Hmmmm... sounds like a good advertising slogan... wow! They could even play the song in the commercials! ;)

You would need a fairly dim marketing department to approve a slogan implying large, heavy, and immovable products.
