Summary

What Edmunds.com says

A solid workhorse pickup, but the old design pales next to its more modern competition.

Pros

Strong V8-engine lineup, familiar sheetmetal, no-nonsense interior design.

Cons

Decade-old technology in a marketplace with more modern selections available.

What's New for 2000

One new paint color. Last year for "C/K" nomenclature.

Review

I purchased this truck back in 2002. It is a 454/5 Spd regular cab 2WD which are extremely difficult to find. I have more fun hauling my cars around due to the fact that I get just as many compliments about the truck as well as the cars. Very durable and very fortunate to have one. Not the best for long travel with the family. No room to stretch. I enjoy it mainly for me and one other rider. Gas mileage proportional to load it handles.

Favorite Features

7.4 engine/5 speed. Comfortable seats. LS package. White letter tires. Color.

Suggested Improvements

None. I like it just the way it is.

Review

We have the one tonner. Hauled 4 horses cross country before we bought it used. We haul a 32 ft 5th wheel and snowmobiles. It's a true "workhorse" Window motor to passenger side don't work from driver's side, but works from passenger side. Other problem...fuel hog! Better pay attention to the fuel gauge, blink and it's gone.

Review

This truck is a great vehicle. I have made a few mods to the suspension and motor(7.4L) and it has responded well. I pull a 6000lb boat and carry a 3500lb slide-in camper. We also haul a gooseneck with 8 Black Angus cows. The truck handles the load quite well and it is a very comfortable vehicle to drive on long trips. I get 10/12+mpg empty and a solid 10 loaded, which is much better than the 6/8 I got with my previous truck. I think the brakes feel weak too, but they have never failed to stop me. Overall I think this truck is a great value. I love driving around town and to work as much as I've enjoyed driving it all over the country.

Favorite Features

Inside: Ride comfort, creature comforts, keyless entry, good gauges. Outside: Great looking truck. Under the hood: Performance, reliability.

Suggested Improvements

A tranny temp gauge would have been nice.
