piece of junk

I sure wish the engineers of these vehicles would work on something they designed, then they would find out what they put professional technicians through. If you need anything done on the front differential, be prepared to pay big bucks, as I am in the middle of tearing mine apart, the driver's side half shaft seems to be fused inside the spiders. I am just short of grabbing the torch and cutting the truck up into a million pieces.... Never again

trucks

i think this car looks very nice, gmcs make great trucks that are built for heavy duty things. the performance may lag a little bit but you can always add in some cheap parts to push the power up a wee bit more

i own a 2003 ZR5 Crew Cab

For a compact truck this vehicle has exceeded my expectations. I have had to relocate 3 times in 5 yrs and this truck has done it share of the work. We have had to have the 4X4 switch replaced twice but no other work beyond normal maintainance truly a great truck

nothing but troube

I leased a 2003 Sonoma new for 4 years in 2003 and had the dryshaft replaced in the 2 year( which was covered by my extended warenty)...I still only have 90,000 km on it and already had the starter replaced, brakes done 2 times, roters, ball joints, door hinges, back window latch 2 times, rearview mirror still keeps falling of...other things as well. I am a woman and don't drive it hard at all. I find it hard on gas...I am not pleased. I bought it out after the lease. I will never what I still owe on it if I sell so I am stuck with it.
