Mine is a 1990 Silverado, 350 with the 700R4 in the K1500 4x4. Bought it 3 years ago with only 96k miles on it. Only problems have been a bad starter and I need to replace the rear leaf springs as they are shot. However the previous owners towed a camper with it and thats it, so I would say thats the root of the spring issue. I also upgraded the radiator to a 3-core as I felt the single core was just too small and it was not up to the task of towing on 95 degree days. It is comfortable, drives well, pulls well and has been one of my favorites. I am actually going to purchase another 1990 in a C1500 2wd with a 350 and 5spd so I can save the first from junk miles back and forth to work.
Solid truck

Transmissions was replaced about 125,000 miles and the truck currently has about 220,000 miles. The first 170,000 miles were mostly highway, but the truck did serve some heavy duty from pulling large heavily loaded tandem trailers to recovering stuck farm tractors, etc. Except for the transmission replacement, the drivetrain is still in excellent condition. A recent compression check indicated all cylinders are well within limitations. Changing the oil every 3,000 miles and fixing the little things as needed, really makes a difference in the long run.
Where it counts, Chevy does right.

Where it counts, as in staying on the road, this truck is hard to beat. Over 17.5 years, all not garaged, this vehicle has maintained an impeccable driving record. That said, the plastic pieces of the truck are extremely poor, as well as the overall interior design. The fuse door fell off one day without any prompting. A tab was mysteriously found to have broken off. The glove box is awkward (tall but no depth). The seat belt made its way under the speaker cover and ripped it off (poor placement). The vinyl quality was cheap and cracked quickly in comparison to the replacement vinyl I got privately. Again, the engine will keep you on the road, but don't expect much from the interior.
The Best!

Plain and simple the truck was the best and I regret selling it the first place, If you look at the power numbers they don't stand out like today's numbers, but you would be surprised of what that truck can do! Chevy Power all the way!!!!!!
Well worth the money

Abolutely outstanding truck! We have replaced minimal items due to normal wear and tear i.e. battery, starter, and that's it. We honestly don't have any complaints, except it's too bad they don't make'em like they used to.
