Used 1999 GMC Sierra Classic 1500 Consumer Reviews
New century truck
The features on my GMC SLE extended cab (3 door) are fantastic! This is the BEST "General" I've ever owned; and I've had a few. This truck has modern V8 power; modern comfort (lots of options); modern sound system w / CD; modern ride (suspension and disc brakes @ all four corners) If you can find one (99' +)with "mimimal" milage........get it! For a 1/2 ton pick-up truck it's got more "creature" options than a 99' Cadillac........I continue to forget that I have to manually turn on/off the head lights in my other vehical! WOW!
Bullet Proof
I got my 99 GMC Sierra SLE 3door with a 5.3 when my mother passed in 2002 and it had 10,000 miles since then I have put 380,000 miles on it. I have never done anything to the engine and it still idles with 55 pounds of oil pressure it only shows signs of oil use right at time to change the oil. This is the most reliable vehicle I have ever owned and plan to keep it forever. I live in Arizona and the sun has took its toll on the paint but other than that the truck is in great shape inside and out. If I ever get the chance to purchase another one this year model I will buy it just to have yet another bullet proof truck. In 99 GMC was making a vehicle that was worth the money. I just 2 months ago changed the power steering pump for the first time. The only complaint that I have with it is about every 4-5 years I have to put an intake gasket on it. I would say that if anyone gets the chance to buy one of these do not pass it up regardless of miles. I have had the transmission rebuilt 1 time at about 250,000 miles.
