1989 GMC S-15 N/A review from North America
"The 1989 S15 pickup is a great tough truck that has a few problems but nothing is perfect."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I highly recommend to never buy this truck with the stock charcoal grey paint job it has a bad record for peeling off.
Had problems with some of the plastic interior pieces breaking such as the climat control cover.
General comments?
Touch truck takes pot holes well when you don't see them and are not able to dodge them in time.
Not too bad on gas with the 2.5L I can drive it for two weeks with a full tank before the next fill up.
The 2.5L is great with fluids never have had an oil leak etc.
The 2.5L always started right up on the coldest winter days without being plugges in!
