Great Truck

2000 GMC Sierra 1500 SLE 3dr Extended Cab 4WD SB (4.8L 8cyl naturally aspired 4A)

I have owned this truck for 9 years. Highway, city, offroad. Hot sun, freezing winters with heavy, deep snow and ice, and torrential rain. My version is a 4DR Extended Cab SLE Z71, 5.3L with custom cap and racks. This is a fabulous truck. Handles great and delivers fantastic performance under absolutely any condition and/or load. But it had growing pains: bad ABS brakes,and some electrical issues with power windows and doors, and extended cab hinges that didn't fit properly in cold weather. All fixed over time and the brakes are now very good(watch out for the door hinges, though.)Now in 2009 I am trading it for a Suburban Z71 for a roomier cab (family has grown). I will miss this truck.

Purchased brand new; 130,000 miles. Has performed exceptionally. I live in the desert and am used to problems with plastic pieces breaking; not so much with this truck. still looks like new after 10 years. Maintenance issues: Plastic retainer on tail gate latch (and cover that broke trying to access it) at 120,000 miles, Water pump (at 105,000 miles), fuels pump went bad around 40,000 miles ('cause of bad gas) and dealer replaced (under warranty) with S-10 style pump. Caused many problems. Once I went to an independent repair shop, it got fixed right. Took 45 min to lower spare tire 'cause of warped plastic sleeve that jack handle goes into. Ave mpg 15-17 (including 70+++ mph to Vegas).

Excellent ride, good power. Replaced alternator at 42,000. Bad alternator caused leakage from battery, causing the replacement of battery and positive battery cable had deteriorated. Dealership charged me an arm and leg to replace ($1000). Also had problems with accelerator sticking at 40,000. Replaced emergency brake at 29,000.

The truck rides and handles well. Fuel economy is acceptable. I tow a 18 foot boat without any problems. But I use it primarily for transportation. I have about 41000 miles and lately I have noticed numberous body rattles. The exterior paint is not very hard, it scratches very easy.

I was always an F150 fan when it came to small pickups. I couldn't resist the ride the GMC gave, I tested the Dodge, Ford and Toyota, GMC won hands down. I now have the truck for nearly 2 years, with 28k on it. The only issue I had was with GMC service. I had a hard flip toneau cover installed, they soaked me, and put it on incorrectly. Also, a clunking sound from the drive train, that was a known issue released, and they've replaced the alloy yolk with the new Steel yolk, all's fine. This is a great truck, the only other thing I need to do is replace the Firestone tires and I'm golden. I recommend this truck to anyone!
