What Owners are Saying About the 1997 Chevrolet G-Series 3500

"Greatest Chevy Van Ever Built!"

"Just Bought myself a 1995 Chevy G 20 Gladiator Conversion Van with 145,000 Miles. One Owner vehicle and well taken care of. The Gladiator was made exclusively by the Glavel Corporation. It is hands down the best investment decision I have ever made. So far, I have used it to go cross country and it has not let me down at all. Furthermore, it has been handy for toting junk and rubbish to the flea market . The expansive room in the Chevy Van is amazing. One of the best features of this 95’ Gladiator is being able to go Glamping with comfort. Do not hesitate to purchase a 1995 Chevy G20 Conversion Van if you can find one. Sincerely, from this man with a van!"

"Most Luxurious Chevy Van Ever Made!"

"The 1995 Chevrolet G20 van conversion by Gladiator is truly the best vehicle I have ever purchased. When I ride my van I feel like the American dream is Alive and well. It is a V8 5.7 liter 350 engine and it goes quick I tell ya’. Best part is all the space you have in the interior. Never broken down on me yet bless the lord Jesus! You need to own one if you can find 1 , good luck and Yeehaw Cowboy!"

"chad lewis"

"i own a 1990 g20 chevy van i bought it with 73k miles im the second owner its spacey and comfortable the heater core is a pain and the dog house but overall its a great investment, i have invested so far 500.00 but its paying off didnt understand why my van boggs down and why it hesitates and found out it needed tps and my caytlic converter was clogged, if your thinking of investing in one or buying one its a awesome choice,they last and are reliable and getting harder and harder to locate,and to find its worth the investment."
