1992 GMC Sierra SLE review from North America
"I love my truck and it will be one sweet ride when I'm done with it"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Replaced the alternator twice.
Replaced the battery twice.
Replaced the heater core and blower.
Replaced the brake pads.
Replaced the electric window switch.
Replaced the wiper spline.
Rebuilt the transmission at 130000klm.
Rebuilt the motor at 1490000km.
Replaced the ERG valve.
The fan shroud is cracked and looks like hell.
The air conditioning worked for the first year I owned it.
It used to shudder at 100km due to the transmission mount being broken on one side. Fixed it.
General comments?
I love this truck though it has been really good to me considering I drive it really hard.
Right now it is under construction and will be ready by next summer 2005 hopefully, but if not the next summer.
I have lowered it and tinted the windows and added a rear roll pan to it.
I removed all the door guard from it so it looks more streamline.
I want to put bucket seats in it, but haven't found any yet that I like.
Next I'm going to lower it even more and get a new paint job.
It is big and safe and is nice to cruise in.
I love the sound system in it. Year to date I have invested over 8000 dollars in it and more is to be spent to get it where I want.
I don't necessarily want to put it in a car show, but just to make it the way I want to see it. Just for me and other truck enthusiasts.
