Your thoughts about GM reliability

My truck is good so far after 3000km.... It's a Sierra AT4X. It's black and it looks really good. When I bought, I hesitated beetween the Silverado ZR2 and Sierra AT4X, in my opinion, the ZR2 looks better than the AT4X, but I wanted the luxury features of the AT4X, so I bought it instead + I don't think the AT4X look that bad to be honest with the AEV bumper on the front. Back is still missing a special bumper dedicated to the AT4X and ZR2 and I'll probably buy the same bumber as my dad. I'm also looking into buying the AWE catback exhaust, but it is kinda expensive. I'll also put 34 inches tires on it, I would love 35s but I don't think it is possible woth the AT4X. My dad as spaced the bumper to fit his 35s, and they are still touching the bumper. I imagine it is maybe possible on the AT4X.

Anyways, apart of talking of my life with my truck, yes I agree, Chevy muscle cars are pretty good, I've got the chance the other day to try a 2023 Camaro ZL1, and oh God it is pushin, that 6.2 liter supercharged LT2 V8 is not a joke. This thing want to kill you, it's absolutely INSANE! It had the 6 speed manual transmission. And that exhaust note is just so sweet, with that supercharger whine it make it sound like an absolute monster! I know someone who have a 2011 Camaro SS and never has gotten mechanical issues with it.

And about SUVs, I cannot really say in my experience, but I've heard some people complaining about these. My grandmother have a 2017 Chevy Trax and it is really good so far. It has 80k kilometers.

 

Can only partly agree with this one.
GM's Opel don't suck, nor are they unreliable. My Zafira from 2003 has been free of any troubles for the year that I've driven it and I can't recall it ever being in the shop for any extraordinary breakdowns.
Can't say anything about the gaskets though since my car has only done about 95k kilometers so far.
As for the plastics... well let's just say an Opel ain't no Merc or BMW. Makes the car easier to clean though.
Kinda off topic, but that's one sweet looking Vectra! Whoever owns it should however do something regarding that rear left door

 

I already have the replacement doors This is mine! My very own 97 Opel Vectra i500 !!

 

Ohhh, an i500, that's sick!
Good to hear that you're willing to take action against the rust, that's a never ending fight on basically any Opel from the 90s

 

sadly all 4 doors and the underbody and the rear left arch are rusty. but i will do everything i can to make it right!

 

That's the spirit, go for it!

 

So you're saying the Volt is Bad too because the Ampera is basically a rebaged Volt

 

The Volt isn't great, but the Ampera is worse. Especially styling-wise.

 

It's like saying A Dacia 1300 is worse than A Renault 12, or that A ISO Isetta is worse than A BMW Isetta

 

I don't like either of the cars, but the Ampera's styling is worse.

 

I totally agree

 

I just remembered GM's old "Diesel" . You Can't beat these at an unreliable engine competition

 

Bruh, old GM diesels are though as hell.

 

Do you even know about them ?

 

Yes, believe me or not, I'm a mechanic.

 

He’s talking about the early ‘80s diesel engines.

 

Ok, he is maybe talking about the 5.7 which kinda sucked to be honest.

 

He’s talking about those Oldsmobile diesels that blew head gaskets all the time.

 

Yeah, these are the 5.7 I'm talking about.

 

Yeah, I realized that. I call ‘em 350s.
