  Second Time Around - 1995 GMC Safari
  By Southern Moon Again - July 24 - 2:00 am

  If youll look, I wrote a review 07/12/02 on this same vehicle. Now passing into the 260K mileage range, I just wanted to again say that GMC makes one reliable ride. In fact, since then weve added to (not replaced) our GMC family with a Suburban that after the first 25K seems to be as solid as the Safari that I still drive every single day. 260K: no oil usage, no loss of power, good looking. I cant say enough good things about the GMC Safari.

  Good Van - 2000 GMC Safari
  By L Mummau - June 17 - 2:00 am

  Bought New as leftover, had minor electrical problems, rides nice and has lots of torque. Towing is a breeze. Air conditioner not as cold as I like. A sled on Ice, Snow or heavy rain. Hauls a lot easily. Happy with vehicle so far. Like all GMs Ive owned are put together a little sloppy. Engine & Tranny Strong.

  1995 Safari SLT - 1995 GMC Safari
  By kayaker - February 23 - 2:00 am

  This van is my second, I owned a Astro before, its a great driver on long trips and has plenty of towing power for my older Apache trailer. All wheel drive is a real life saver as I do get off the pavement once in awhile and is great on winter roads.

  Grandpas Van - 1999 GMC Safari
  By Pauppo - February 19 - 2:00 am

  A very reliable and useful vehicle. Lots of power and interior room with affordable fuel economy. Both hardware and paint seem to be holding up well.

  GMC SAFARI - 1995 GMC Safari
  By CGOSSETT - February 5 - 2:00 am

  Bought new in January 1996. Have had no major problems. Front brakes have been replaced twice. Plastic door handle on passenger side broke inside the door...major hassle to get to and fix but not a major expense if you have a friend that is a mechanic and has the right tools. Power door lock doesnt always connect with the sliding passenger side door (2 clicks usually will do it when it "misfires"). Just had the fuel pump replaced at 123,000 miles. Van gave plenty of warning...started running rough at about 118,000 miles. Tuned up at 105,000 miles. With 3 kids in sports, this van is great.

  Love/ Hate - 1997 GMC Safari
  By Ed Slaney - October 14 - 2:00 am

  We have a love /hate relationship with this vehicle. It is great to drive,easy for shopping etc. Comfortable on long trips. We have replaced 3 window motors,1 seat motor,an alternator,a very expensive fuel pump,a wiper circuit board and other various items some under warrenty some not. Before the fuel pump went I complained to GMC and they offered me an 8 hundre $ cert. towards a new GMC product good for 1 yr. The pump went shortley after and the fix wiped out the cert. Yesterday the blower moter switch would only work on high.

  Great Minivan - 1995 GMC Safari
  By Southern Moon - July 12 - 2:00 am

  My wife and I bought a 95 Safari used in May of 97 with 80,000 miles on it. Knowing how much we drive and knowing that we dont hurt our vehicles with highway miles, we decided to buy it. I cant possibly explain here what a wonderful minivan its been. No electrical trouble (like some say), no drivetrain trouble, no engine trouble, solid as a rock. Weve done regular routine maintenance type things but if ever you wanted to read about a satisfied GM product customer, Im him. Gas mileage 20+, set of tires every 65-75K, brakes twice lifetime, oil/air filter every 4K- thats about all you do.
