Good history of running efficiently without breakdown or problems. Look and inside leather has received many compliments with the extended cab allows great 5 seating capability.
Love this Truck

I have had many cars and trucks foreign and domestic. By far this is the best and most reliable vehicle I have ever owned. We live on acreage and the 4x4 is like a billy goat. The only thing mechanical that has needed to be replaced are the power window motors and the gas pick-up in the gas tank. I have not even needed a brake job probably because I do little towing and it is driven more like a passenger car. I take very good care of my truck,oil and transmission fluid changes, wash and wax and I am careful when I use the 4x4. Gas mileage around town is 15-16 and on the interstate 18-19. It is more comfortable on trips than our cars. Feel very safe in all kinds of weather. Love it.
The best truck I have had

I bought this truck for the price I got on it. I have not been dissapointed. It only has the 305 automatic so when I put my travel trailer (750 pound tounge, 10000 actual)it is a bit sluggish and it kills the gas milage. I have added a freer flowing exhaust and air filter and routinly get 17 mpg city and 25 on the road. I baby it though. The looks are spot on for me and my son plans on buying the truck from me in a few years. If you get a good deal on one of these trucks GET IT!! you wont regret it

I have put over 300000 miles and never touched the inside of the motor. 5.3 i think. It gets 18 mpg. I have a 345 rear end, auto. Used both in construction work and pleasure. Has been an excellent pickup, and still looks good. Did replace transmission @ 235000.
GREAT TRUCK THROUGHOUT!

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!

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.
