This SUV is so awesome. I posted a review on it before, but wanted to say this...

Today I test drove a 2005 GMC Jimmy thinking I would get ANOTHER one. But after driving the 2005 Jimmy I was actually quite disappointed in it compared to my 1994 GMC Jimmy. Although the interior of my 1994 is outdated, the rest of the vehicle is awesome. It runs great, it is so comfortable and I can do just about anything with it (tow, off-road, haul stuff). It just does everything!! I will honestly spend $3000 putting a new motor in my 1994 Jimmy before I would invest $15,000 or $20,000 in the new one. I think GM is making crap now.

So if you are considering a GMC Jimmy or Chev Blazer go with the older styles. You'll have to invest the odd $$$$ in repairs, but the rewards far exceed the expenses. I will keep sinking money in to my 1994 to keep it on the road - it's worth every penny and cheaper than a monthly payment for a new one that I didn't even like as much as my old one. My Jimmy is a true blue truck and I gotta love it!

Okay, so I went out and bought ANOTHER 1994 GMC Jimmy SLT - exact same - green/black leather interior except for a 3" lift on this one. As they say in the McDonald's commercials... "bah bah I'm lovin it!"

Even though the moment I pull into the driveway, my hubby will have some work to do, but nothing major, and all worth it!
