Jon Snow100 must be nice 🤣🤣

I agree unless your in South Texas near the ocean.

Lol shit bubba what rust? Lol 96 Z71 350 and she’s a mean bitch, more than my baby momma lol 😂😭🔥

he's probably i n the north part of missouri my 1990 SLX had no rust and im from missouri

Rather have a rusted truck than live in Tex-Ass

True that

Because the Fords are all in junkyards

Ford was always stronger on fleet sales. Trucks that are used to destruction in four or five years. I would bet that for private users sales were similar. Not defending or attacking either Ford or Chevy

I wish I can push the like button x10

You mean every brand new ford

They are bad about roof rust normally

That’s impressive. Gas or diesel?

1996 z71, 285,000 here.

@John Waters,You're more of an ISUZU mini truck kinda guy.

320,000 here and original engine

Mine just hit 307,000. I have the ‘99 Z71. She runs smooth

Oh my goodness, you guys DID watch my video! Thanks for the comment!!!

yeah but thats 3 years newer then my 95 and guess what the damn problem is the fucking engine mounts rust way to easy for something on the raod my engine mouts are fucked in my 95 and me replacing them is gonna be an issue as i make 40 a month

My 95 GMC 1500 i bought for $900 i love the body style. Issue transmission 4l60e i tell people do not buy use transmission you will be sorry. Not with the 95 TBI then if you one of these trucks you will have to deal with PWM. Cause 95 is year by its self cause transmission lockup issues.

@@DanielJaegerFilms good video, great truck. You are a Ford guy you say?? KZfaq Deboss garage why not Ford.. KZfaq Car Wizard worse engine ever.. I have a 2014 Silverado, I off road the crap out of it and hot rod it all of the time!! I have 91,000 trouble free miles and get 23.6 MPG! Hauling two quad's I average 19 MPG. So far so good... I know people with Ford's that never off road them and have had more problems then I have had with my old 252,000 mile Zr2!!

PhillLsx Ga. I have a 2000 Silverado with 205,000 miles on it and it doesn’t even feel worn out at all. All of the steering components on it are stock but it’s still tight as hell and there is no play in the steering wheel. I would have thought that it would have become a problem over the years but so far nothing bad has happened but it makes me concerned almost like it’s too good to be true. lol

They are still pretty good. The 5.3 is a great engine

Matthew Tyler yes my dad has a new one and I'll be honest, it is a great truck. I still like the old ones better but the new ones are good too.

Thank the EPA and the government's constant push for efficiency. Styles and generations of cars and trucks are considered obsolete way before their time. This is nothing new, though. That's why so many different manufacturers make cars that look relatively similar. How many cars and SUVs on the road right now look like brothers or sisters yet come from entirely different vehicle manufacturers and have designers in different parts of the world?

THE SQUAD 2. Me too bud

My 2008 Silverado has 300k original motor and transmission.

Ahh have you seen 90s-00s Chevy interiors feels and looks like old Lego plastic I like the way they look but the quality sucks my brother had a 2003 Chevy suburban the seats feel great the door panels are a little squeaky when you lean on it but the dash is so cheaply put together cheap hollow plastic at the top its horrible

Craezo king Beats and tell me how that affects the reliability

@@benjamingarcia2282 it's reliable but it's a bit overkill to say they cared

...and didnt use carpeted wheel well liners

@@superunknown8645 lol

I have a 1994 Chevy Silverado 2500 V8 5.7 engine. Only 168,000 miles on it. Hoping to last a lot longer.

Yea you have the TBI engine they are the best. Want to sell it?

I paid $1,800 for my '94 C1500 with a 5.7L V8, 213,000 miles when I got it. Had to replace the battery and I'll be getting new brake pads soon but that's about it. It's doing pretty well so far but I've not been able to drive it a whole lot on account that it has no plates yet, and the whole Corona thing is delaying that for me XD

I paid $600 for mine lol been a project for 2 years mine is a 1991

Bought a running driving 98 k1500 Cheyenne, 5.7 extended cab. 800$ cut the drums out so only front brakes 230k miles and that thing won’t quit. Badass truck outruns a 2002 5.4. Mine has the 4 on the floor

Dad bought a blue and white 73 c20 loved that truck

Replacing the outside door handle scared the hell out of me because I did it wrong and could not get the door open from the outside or the inside!!! Be very careful if you haven't done this repair before...

kcotte59 time for a divorce. I spent 12 years with a chick who was always right. Beer and weed are far more expensive than a divorce

Yep I got a 95 C 2500 standard GMC driver side inner door handle is a 14 mm long socket lol

kcotte59 because if you haven't beaten her by now, then, there must be something settling you down man. Aaaand, judging by the comment, maybe you should give it serious thought. Life is too short to be in a situation like that. I'm personally glad I didn't stick with that bitch. I tell ya, the one I had would bitch about the color of money. Now I have a simply awesome woman, who wouldn't give a shit if I drug the rustiest truck home to fix. So long as I enjoy wrenching on it, that's all that matters to her. Shit, she'll hear me getting wound up, n bring me my bag n bowl

kcotte59 props to you for not taking it as bragging. I don't usually do that, but, I had to use my sweetheart as an example. I just feel there's more to life than money etc. Yeah, there's gotta be something somewhere, bc, a normal woman would appreciate a man that ain't afraid of a load of laundry or dishes. Alot of people call me cold bc I refuse to deal with a cocky, conceited woman. My advice, take it as you will, bc I am not there in person, but, you gotta scrape up the self respect you have left, make a few calls, n enjoy life while you can.

My dad owns 2 with almost 300k miles each. The automatic transmissions lasted about 240k - 250k miles but that amazing considering how cheap they are to replace.

I agree but the late 70s to mid 80s square body was to me the sharpest looking

@@dericcormier38 i have a 79 silverado they are sharp lol

I like the 06's

07-13 is my favorite generation

Viperman200221 yup still my favorite block

One of my work passenger vans with a 350 blew an oil cooler line on the highway. Even with losing 3-4 quarts of oil because the driver drove it to the nearest gas station and did not stop when the oil pressure light came on the engine survived.

Viperman200221 same thing with the GM 3800 V6 I have that engine in my Buick then those engines will go forever too

Viperman200221 yeah I drove my 99 yukon with both heads cracked for a few years lol

350’s are damn good engines, but I would put my money on a 5.3 lasting longer than a 350.

LibertyFighter thats the way it is with all the pick up trucks in my area

I did not have good motors during those years. I replaced blower motors and windshield wiper motors in so many it's not even funny. However the engines are rock solid.

Chaka Gillis your right my blower motor doesn't work on my truck and my wiper motor acts up it will stop my wiper blades in the middle of my windshield or they won't shut off

Yepppp

+Dillon Koch lol i kept a rubber mallet in my 93 silverado. when the blower motor or windshield wiper motor would stop, i would tap on them and worked good as new lol

Thats what I'm talking about

i paid 1,700$ to get trans rebuilt on my 92 astro work van... friends thought i was crazy..super reliable andi can easily get another 50k out of it.frame and body still good. ..new van payments would be 400-500$ a month.

kcotte59 my 99 has a 5.3 with 223 thousand mile, everything og

kcotte59 HAHAHA the 5.4 Triton? More reliable? Put the crack pipe down bud! The Triton is one of the worst engines Ford has put out in the last 30+ years.

the 2 valve tritons were decent ..i had a couple.. the 3v is a disaster.

I have a '91 with the 5.7L and almost 300k on it. The only gripe I have is the low towing capacity. I live in Colorado and it has a 5000 pound towing capacity. you pull 5000 through the mountains you're gonna get in a lot of people's way. It just has no get up and go with that kinda weight in the thinner air. Other than that it's a great reliable truck.

96 chevy k1500 extra cab cab with 159,000 getting a little rust around windshield and radio antenna on front bumper. Replaced the manifold gasket, alternator, 3 fuel pumps, brake job twice, rebuild front end, two windshields, 4 sets of tires, two batteries, 2 brake lines that rusted out, two tailgate handles, 3 door handles inside,one door handle outside, one radiator, am going to put new shocks all around now. Owned this truck for for twenty yrs and love it like the body style and the motor has a 3" lift from when bought new in 96.

Tyler Webb I have a 1992 C1500 4.3 and five speed with almost 390K miles.

I have the same truck. 94 Chevy k1500 with a 5.7.

Yeah you got the tbi motor, it will last longer than the truck. I personally don’t like the vortec 5.7

Logan Mayo The Vortecs had weak oil pumps that would fail also prone to sludge. I’ve seen many TBI 350’s with over 400K miles. They were the best engines.

Chevys strong that’s why

no the 73-86 Chevy's were junk they were carbureted instead of EFI . They had bullshit small sadle tanks one on each side real pain in the ass. Not to mention the 4x4s had solid front axels god do I hate solid front axle trucks. IFS is so much better in every way and I don't have to get out to lock out my bullshit hubs I just push a button sip on my coffee and carry on my way and dont have to worry about spilling my coffee with IFS vs hillbilly junk solid bullshit front axle trucks.

Tyler Tyler I prefer any Chevy truck up to 1989, you can have the newer cowboy Cadillacs.

Yea. I love the 70s Chevy trucks, blazers and suburbans.

I had a 77 Chevy custom deluxe it was a great truck it had 500000 miles on it and still worked

+Special Ed The 88+ Chevy so call cowboy Cadillacs are so much more reliable then 87 and older Chevy's. Not only the 88+ Chevy's way way way more reliable they ride way nicer they come factory with fuel injection and so much more. I have had my day with them 73-87 Chevy's what a bunch of junk. Fucking carburators we're always needing attention. Most had crappy TH350 and TH400 3spd non overdrive crap transmissions. The fuel tank switch was always a problem they came factory gutless as all hell. The solid front axe 4x4s required you to get out to lock out them stupid hubs not to mention them old solid axle Chevy's ride like crap and handle like crap. The list goes on I work a full-time job I don't feel like spending all my spare time working on a piece of shit truck. I just sold my 94 Silverado with over 400 000 most of the truck was all original including the 5.7TBI and 4l60e everything worked as GM intended including the air conditioning I'v upgraded to a 98 Z71 Silverado. Don't miss my 85 Silverado at all fuck that old carbureted piece of shit. That 85 I had was always a prick in the -40c mornings that 94 I had I'd just push a button and in my nice warm house.

If it's in decent shape and doesn't have crazy high miles it very well could be.

Fb market place would have it for sale with rust here in texas for 5 to 7k lol.

@@austinreeves9112 my dad and i got a 125000 mile rust free 98 for 300 dollars here in texas. just have to look for the right deal.

People are still asking $8k and $10k in the south.

It’s super awesome

zepfan96 you were born in 1996?

There are plenty of things to talk down about this truck any real Chevy guy will tell you everything that’s wrong with them If you care to know I’ll tell you

Doors are too heavy for the hinges .

zepfan96 exacty

Leaky intake manifold gaskets, heater hose nipple that breaks, ball joints that drop, spider fuel injection hoses that clog and it goes on and on.

Naa not in Florida they aren't. I see more of these trucks still tooling around on the road then I do the old round body F-150's or big rig Ram's. I bought my old worn out work truck 8 years ago for $1500 expecting to drive it a couple years then scrap it out... Ended up fully restoring it the truck was so AWESOME mechanically!

There not Silverados there c/k until 2000 then Silverado became the name of the truck

Brindle Chihuahua Had a mid 90’s Z71 and the badge that they GM placed by the rear of the cab says “Silverado”. Same with my brothers 1997 Chevy 3500.

Brindle Chihuahua c/k is how they classified the truck, c for single cab and k for extra cab. Silverado has been the model name for quite a long time.

C stands for 2 wheel drive, K stands for 4 wheel drive

My dad has the same year z71, no rust except for a small spot on the rockers on the driver side door. Been an ohio truck since it sold off the lot in 98. We got it in 2004.

Outt Ink what is fluid film?

Mr.Clem it's a rust preventative fluid

Yeah, its almost like wd40 but THICK. It sticks on your frame, or pretty much anything you spray it on.

My 96 is comoletely rust free. But then again, I'm from Louisiana haha no salt here

Here in Mississippi they all over the place without rust.

No reason to buy a new vehicle if you just maintain the damn thing. People don't maintain anything and it just rots away to the point its completely worthless and the only ones that want it are junkyards

Stick a tesla battery in the bed and some tesla drive modules and call it good!

I had the 91 3500...... great truck !

wheelstandr they are gorgeous if they are well kept or restored. And the old ones will not devalue anymore as long as you take care of them.

BRETT m nice, I love my 02 Yukon xl and I’ve got 330,000 on it and it’s never once stranded

SGT SCHULTZ 17 I've got a 1994 chevy 1500. single cab. 139k miles. 4x4. runs like a dream. Last owner wasn't nice to it.

kcotte59 it was only around 3-4 gallons of diesel in a 20 gallon tank

SGT SCHULTZ 17 I own a 97 Silverado z71 with 300k & still runs strong

Max Vega without a doubt. Chevy did an amazing job from the years 88-98

I have a 2001 silverado with 13,816 miles on it very low

Steve's Auto OSTROGOTH same here got a 94 Blazer 299.5 k on the clock, 5.7 tbi and 14 bolt semi float out back from a 95 k1500 3/4 ton bolted right it on 6 inch lift and 35s most reliable truck ive ever owned.

im a ford and chevy guy these silverados are along the same line in terms of reliability as the 97-03 f150. 97 and 98 f150s did have an issue with timing cover gaskets and intake gaskets but it was solved in 99. id say tho the f150 does squeak out a win because of the 4r70w transmission is more reliable then 4l60. its retarded how cool these guys think they are with there brand new $50 000 f150s and silverados when a 4 door car would suit them much better laughs

Interesting. I have a 2016 Silverado. Drove it off the lot with 9 miles. Now has 25,000 miles. And the bed and bed rails are all scratched, dented, and well broken in (and yes, the liner is sprayed). I also have a tool box bolted right through the bed rails. And I've towed cars, lumber, lawn equipment, snow equipment, ladders, etc. I've loaded my bed with soil, mulch, tree limbs, and plants. And I'm not afraid to push a snow bank out of my way to pull into my driveway. I'm also not afraid to get it dirty or muddy, but still wash it once every month or so, and polish, wax and seal the paint twice a year. This was after I traded my 2003 with 262,000 miles in excellent condition. And I pushed that truck to the limit as well. Oh yeah. And I paid only $32K for mine after hours of negotiating. And my '03 was $26K brand new. So I think I did well. So don't worry, there's still dudes out there that use their trucks as trucks. And I'm one of them. However, there are tons of dudes that shouldn't have a truck because they don't use them as trucks. Know who they are? The ones with the hydraulic tonneau covers. Because any truck guys knows those things are a waste of time when trying to load the bed.

John Wyskochil I’m an every truck guy because just liking one brand and thinking anyone who disagrees with you is stupid is obnoxious.

the new chevys are for guys that want to get their pant antlers jerked off

SurviventheOnslaught Not sure what that means but ok. I'll be sure to run my 2016 close to 300,000 just like my '03. But hey to each their own.

J Garcia 2001:2006 where the golden years of Yukon

kcotte59 kcotte59 my 02 3/4ton has the 8.1 with 454000 original miles and still going strong..which is the same body style as an 06 just a different front clip.

the 8.1 was good my dad had one that had over 300k on it when he sold it pulled anything we hooked to it.

Can't say anything about the '06s but the guys that I sold my old '03 has over 300,000 miles with the original motor and trans. Even the original G80 3.73 rear still works. Really miss that truck. I love my '16 but that '03 didn't owe me a dime.

kcotte59 Mine is 2006 never any problems and I mud run burnouts beat the fuck out of it still run and drives like a top. I'm sorry your luck is bad with them

Chris Johnston how is that?

Why do you people say 88-98 when my 99 k1500 is a OBS too

98 Silverado 1500 with 289k. Have had 0 issues out of it, still on factory rear brakes. Bought it brand new and have owned it ever since

Chris Simmons All of the stock shocks on my 2000 are blown out, but now it rides like a couch because of it and I kind of like it. lol I plan to turn it into a long travel build sometime but for now it’s completely bone stock and it’s been great.

What happened to the original engine?

Nathan Springer it's worth every penny you've invested too. I've had my 92 stepside for 10 years. I wouldn't take 5 grand for mine, and I paid 3 grand for it 10 years ago.
