  • The best there ever WAS - 1994 GMC Safari
    By -

    Bought this car because I needed the room and the power. It was a wreck when I bought it , previous owner didnt take care of it at all. After some work it has performed flawlessly. It has amazing ability for heavy cargo and mileage is not affected by how much it is pulling (although fuel economy is not good to begin with). It has 186000 miles on it (300,000 KM!!!) and I have no plans of selling it anytime soon.

  • Oldie but goodie - 1994 GMC Safari
    By -

    We have owned our Safari since 1995, bought as a lease car with 15,800 miles. Since then we have towed a 16- foot travel trailer all over Florida and into the north Georgia mountains numerous times with no problems. Comfort and durability are A-1. Gas mileage is crummy but as would be expected for a vehicle of this size (mileage when towing averages 11-12 MPG). The only real hang-up we have had is carbon build-up in the exhaust ports which finds its way into the ERG valve and gets lodged there, causing the engine either to surge or die out. We have just had the exhaust ports de- carbonized and this seems to have done the trick.

  • Among the best vehicles Ive ever owned - 1994 GMC Safari
    By -

    It has over 215,000 miles on it and still runs like a top. Ive had the normal maintenance things to do of course but it has been serviced regularily and it keeps on going. It actually handles better than my 05 (tighter turning radius) and the power is still good. Rear end has had a noise in it since day one but apparently this is simply a characteristic of it since Ive heard that several times about the 94-96 safari XTs. Never a problem with it though. I owned my 1st new car in 69 so Ive had a lot of them but never one better than this one. Guess thats why GM discontinued it, too damn good.
