1997 GMC Sierra Z71 review from North America
"Excellent truck. Period"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
So far I have had zero problems with this truck, aside from routine maintenance.
I will have to do brakes in the front soon.
General comments?
This is my second full size GM pickup. My first was a 96 Chevy 2500. I bought it with 350000km on it and drove it to almost 400000. I was intending on keeping it for a long time, but the offer for the new truck was too good to pass up.
All in all, I will never buy any other than GM trucks.
My Z71 is almost impossible to get stuck, and has amazing stock horsepower and torque.
It has an excellent stance and outer appearance, and the interior is roomy enough to sleep 3 people (believe me, I've done it.)
Perfect 10/10 from me.
