1998 GMC Jimmy SLT review from North America
"The best vehicle I have owned"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Absolutely nothing has gone wrong with this car!
General comments?
This is quite possibly the best car I have owned. Nothing has gone wrong, and that has given me the opportunity to spend my maintenance money on "fun" items. I installed a K&N Air Induction System, which I highly recommend. I use Mobile 1 all synthetic motor oil, and environment friendly coolant. The brakes are ceramic, only a few dollars more than the metal or asbestos and well worth it. I just installed a Carriage Works billet grille. I think proper preventive maintenance and staying ahead of problems is the key to keeping any vehicle in great shape. Those of you that drive a vehicle until it breaks are destined to high maintenance bills and a troublesome vehicle.
