1988 GMC Safari SLE review from North America
"A bargain of a vehicle"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have had to replace the motor and some bulbs. The rear doors don't open, and the locks have a short.
General comments?
It has been a very good vehicle besides the motor but I bought it cheap so it was very much worth it to replace it.The 4.3Ls are very powerful, nice to tow in and also comfy for up to 8 people. A high step in height and also since it is built on truck platform id does not have as a refined ride as most front wheel drive minivans.
