Used 1999 GMC Sierra 1500 Consumer Reviews
Heck of a Truck
I have a 99' GMC SLT with the Z71 option. I am extremely satisfied with this truck. I previously owned an F150, the GM beats it in every category hands down. GM also has a far superior service department, this point I cannot stress enough. I highy reccomend purchasing one.
A great truck
This truck has been very reliable and it still looks great. It has pulled whatever we needed it to. We have pulled cars from CA to MO and back with no problems.

127,000 miles and still going strong!
99 Sierra SLT Ex. cab. Just hit 127k. Extremely reliable. No issues. Slight engine tapping for 30 seconds when cold. Does not burn oil. Have mainitained very well. Orig. trans mission that shows very little wear when the filter is replaced. Very quite, comfortable, fun to drive while still delivering decent mileage 15/19. This is my 2nd GMC truck. My 1991 was sold for 50% of what I paid for it with 160000 miles. It was also very reliable. My father drove my 99 Sierra a couple of times and sold his 1990 FORD truck and purchased a new 2000 GMC Sierra Z71. He loves it. (so does mom).
Despite problems - still love this truck
Overall I really enjoy this truck. However I am worried about when the warranty runs out. I have replaced both power windows motors, drivers side twice. First time was when the truck was only 2-3 months old. Steering box - replaced at about 50K. This truck does move. The tow/haul mode is great.
I'm impressed
My first full sized truck. 5.3L engine has been great. The truck has 80k miles and has had very few mechanical problems. I easily average 16 to 18 mpg around town and 20 to 21 mpg on hwy which is darn good for a full sized truck.
