1997 Chevrolet Silverado Z71 review from North America
"Worth every penny"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The transmission went at 190 000km, but nothing else has went wrong.
General comments?
I love my Chevy Silverado. It is so comfortable and is by far the best vehicle I have ever owned. It has awesome horsepower, and has never disappointed me.
It is great to drive off road and in the city. It's just the right size. I never want to go back to driving a small car again.
1997 is definitely one of Chevrolet's best years. It's design is unique and attractive. This is one truck that demands attention. It is awesome for both winter and summer driving. In the cold it heats up in under 5 minutes, and during the summer the A/C is instant.
I would recommend the 97 Chevy Silverado to anyone looking for a tough reliable truck.
