Thread: My 2000 GMC Sierra

  1. #1

    My 2000 GMC Sierra

    This has been my first pickup and workhorse. What a dependable truck. This week I'm replacing 2 fuel lines as the factory lines are rusted and one is leaking (the return line). There are kits available to help ease the pain. We'll see about that.

    How long have you had it? Did you buy it in 2000?

    I had a 2001 GMC Sierra for probably about ten years.

    I was a good truck.

    They commonly go 500k miles if you stay on the oil changes. Rock solid truck with few weaknesses.

    I picked up a baby GMC this summer for driving to work. I love it. It is a 98 Jimmy with 118k on it. Will be perfect for a guy who's road doesn't get plowed for days on end in the winter. The Lincoln town car was no good for the winter. It was put to rest this spring. RIP!

    Old trucks are the best trucks!

    I used to love the town cars, with a twist...

    The towne coupe was my favorite car until it got pancaked at a red light. 460 4 bbl. - big and fast.

    Juuuust about finished. What a pain in every part of my anatomy. I decided the hard lines were not going to work due to what I’ve heard about the difficulty sooooo I enigineered my own system using special fittings and soft lines. I was pleasantly surprised to see it actually work. Not my style of fix but probably saved the truck. Many have junked their trucks for this prob.

    Love those old boats! It was 30yrs ago someone gave me a 1974 Mark IV that was a bit rusty but fully intact. With that 460, overstuffed leather seats I called it my supercharged lazyboy.
