1992 GMC Safari SLE review from North America
"The best vehicle I've ever owned"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Door locks, cruise control, AC, casette player, premature rust on front chrome bumper, driver door hinge pin loose, black accent paint around windows peeling,
General comments?
The engine and transmission are very reliable. Handles great - steers like a car around turns, never feels top heavy like a full size van. Strong V6 engine gets good consistent gas mileage with electronic over drive on highway. ABS anti lock braking system is great in snow, rain, ice. I highly recommend this vehicle. Change the engine oil every 3000 miles and service transmission oil/filter every 30,000 and it will last forever. Engine and transmission are original - expect to drive it until 300,000 miles without major repairs.
