Used 1999 GMC Sierra 1500 Consumer Reviews
BIg Red
Got this veicle as a left over in 2000, didn't want red, but it has grown on me, the trucks styling is modern, but not over board like a Dodge, and does not look like the sheet metal was hung on the truck like Fords, it is what it is supposed to be a pick-up truck, not a tractor trailer or a car. Reliable with close to 50,000 miles, nothing more required but routine maintenance, and new tires. it looks good sitting in the driveway. I would recommend a GMC to anyone,it rides well, and looks good and works hard.
Great truck for the money
I have owned this truck for five years and put over 70000 miles on it. It has loads of power and I have towed a trailer with a car for 1000 miles at least four times with the small V8. The underside of the truck could be stronger as the tow hitch tore loose from the rails! The throttle was sticking and had to be cleaned by the dealer which was expensive. The digital dash has gone out and a mechanic said it might just be a ground wire is loose. The third (rear door) rattles badly which is a design flaw. The daylight running lights have both gone out (7.50 each to replace!)There were two recalls.

i'd buy another
great vehicle, this is the second one i've owned. only promblem is it ride's like a luxuray car and you'll hesitate to take it off road for that reason.
Satisfied for the most part
I bought my Sierra used with about 45000 miles on it. It now has 92000. The problems with the power windows are for real. I replaced the driver side motor and I believe that either side could break again at any moment. The transmission went out at about 80000 miles (one of the drums broke). The dash rattles from time to time. Aside from these problems, the truck really has been reliable and enjoyable. The 5.3 has lots of power, but I do notice a difference in the summer with the AC on. I have enjoyed my GMC, but I will look into a ford when buying my next truck (a crew cab), but there is a good chance I will end up back in a GMC or a Chevy.
GMC Sierra - Suberb Value
I am amazed by this truck. I used to be an F150 owner, but have switched product loyalty to the GMC. This is strong, reliable, good-looking, great riding truck.
