1995 GMC Sonoma Regular Cab

Bought new 17 years ago.

By Iceman (MA) on Tuesday, June 18, 2013

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 128,000

Pros: "17 years still running strong"

Cons: "rust underneath, doesn't like windy days"

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 10

"My 1996 4X4 4.3L 5 speed, has been one of the most reliable vehicles I have ever owned. It still has everything original except for normal wear and tear parts and still running strong, getting 23 mpg. Plenty of power with the 4.3 and the transmission is great. Only problems were drivers window motor, rear main seal and heater motor, after 17 years. On the down side, seeing a lot of rust underneath the truck, maybe i could have washed it a little more. Also for a small truck it doesn't like windy days on the highway, gets pushed all over the place. Need to get a bigger truck but keeping the Sonoma, the way its going it will probably be for a while."

Disappointed on the sale day

"With all the options and add on the truck was a great performer. Other people did not have the options and were disappointed. Used Mobil 1 Synthetic the entire time and had great gas mileage and wonderful performance."
