  • 221k still climbing - 1997 GMC Sonoma
    By -

    Too me it looks OK but not really sporty, I got the turd brown. I just past 221k And I wouldnt hesitate to put gas and go anywhere,just that reliable. Even with the high miles I still 30mpg..I know this cause my gas gauge has never worked so I just look at the gallons I put in. its just a 2.2 no power but still it has enough to get a ticket..when I want the power I just get on my R-1. anyways a great truck.

  • Good truck - 1997 GMC Sonoma

    Ive owned this truck since new and it has been the best vehicle I have ever owned. I have 170,000 miles on it and it has never let me down once. GM built a good one in this little truck. Thank you GM.
