This Year's Model Updates:

For 2003, Envoy buyers are able to order certain options individually, rather than as part of an equipment package, adding potential savings and increased flexibility. The sport-ute's already powerful Vortec 4.2-liter inline six also gets a slight bump in horsepower, up from 270 to 275, and Envoys now boast a new four-position headlamp switch that permits drivers to turn off the vehicle's daytime running lamps and automatic headlamps when necessary. Additionally, the Envoy gets a larger fuel tank that holds 22 gallons. Previously standard side airbags are now optional, while autodimming side mirrors and the rear seat overhead compartment have been deleted.

Pros:
  • Plenty of cool options, strong six-cylinder power, attractive interior design.
Cons:
  • Numb steering, plasticky interior pieces, feels tippy in the twisties.

    I really like my 2003 GMC Envoy. It has a good ride especially with the 17" Michelin tires. I can get sometimes between 22-23 MPG highway driving. Combined city and highway is about 16 MPG. No problems so far with this SUV.

    I bought this truck new in 2004. It is roomy and comfortable in the front, as well as the rear. Heating and cooling are excellent, with a back vent in the console. 4WD makes it great in the snow. It has a lot of amenities for a truck!

  • My first GM - 2003 GMC Envoy
    By -

    Ive had the car for less than a year and Ive had to reset the computer once and replace the cooling fan (cost $560) Hopefully I wont see anymore problems for a while. Doubt if I ever buy another GM! The Ford I traded was old but it ran great and never had any work done to it!

  • Be Careful! - 2003 GMC Envoy
    By -

    The seats on this car, while attractive, are very stiff and not comfortable on long trips. The biggest problem, however, has been the noise - sounds like there is a valve "tapping". Local dealers have claimed that they dont hear the noise and that nothing is wrong. I will be stuck at time to trade/unload! Stereo has been replaced a couple of times. There were 2 recalls from the factory. Seatbelts also stick!

  • Great SUV! - 2003 GMC Envoy

    Great ride and options!

  • Too many problems - 2003 GMC Envoy
    By -

    I was a loyal GM owner, but not sure any more. The truck has been into the dealer 8 times in 2 months for a mysterious electrical problem effecting lights and gauges. Ive had 3 computers and 4 electrical switches placed into the truck. Also, the entire truck has been re-ground 3 times and the rear window leak has been fixed twice. Problems still persist. Goods news is GM is buying the car back. I really like the style of the truck so Im thinking about giving GM another shot, but Im not sure.

    dont like the fact that all model dont come standard with rear defogger or power mirrors

  • poor gas mileage - 2003 GMC Envoy
    By -

    terrible when air is on for long trips.

  • NICE RIDE - 2003 GMC Envoy
    By -

    This was a very good purchase for me. Its not to big and not too small. I have been on many long distance trips and the ride has been great. It gets about 350 on the highway, which is pretty good in a SUV. I dont see to many Envoys on the road, and I like that. But its only a matter of time.
