Critical Review
I purchased a '94 4WD S15 Jimmy for $2,100 in late '08 and I've had nothing but problems with it. I couldn't go more than three months without at least three issues springing up at a time; Fuel pump, ball joints (twice) heater core, fan clutch, locking cylinder, tensioner pulley, caliper, the actuator on the 4WD drive, the motor to the optional push-button 4WD ($700 just for the motor), radiator issues, muffler and pipes, just to name a few. Not counting the repairs I did myself, I put around $4,000 in the vehicle for repairs. I finally gave up on the lemon when the transmission gave out. Granted, I did use the vehicle for pizza delivery so a lot of city miles were put on it every night, but even so, the repairs have no right being that much on a 14-16 year old vehicle especially in a 2-year span.

overall a great truck that's very dependable.
The truck is a overall good truck, it runs VERY GOOD, only 3 minor things that need to be taken care of but those 3 things aren't major, they'll very small. but like I said overall its worth it. I'm would like $1600 for it but I'm willing to take your best offer.

SIMPLY A JOY TO OWN AND OPERATE
Fun to drive
bad gas mileage
Its a very reliable car for the winter ive never been stuck before but the gas mileage at least for mine is non to be desired. 10 miles per gallon is not what im looking for. Although i love this car and will most likly have it for a while that is just one thing that i wish i could change.
lots of power good in the snow good MPGs nice dash
starters fail often (easy to replace)
ive had this truck for about 9 years now and it has never let me down or stuck on the side of the road! All ways ran when i needed it too! no problems at all besides the digital dashboard just now failing.
fun to drive
Insur. comp. will rip you off for the true value
I am proud of my 1994 GMC Jimmy 4D. Like others have indicated, it is a go anywhere/anytime vehicle. It is reliable. I have customized wheels off of the older 1983 GMC S-15, and they look awesome. Remember the 1983 S-15? This was one of the first vehicles I fell in love with and it still stands showboat alongside its rivals. My 83 S-15 is a bit rusty now but talk about dependability, I've brought that thing home without a clutch. The 1994 GMC Jimmy was sort of an accident to fall into but now that I own one, I love to drive it and show it off. The 1994 GMC Jimmy was the final year of the flat nose front, with the 1995 Jimmy changed to the ugly sloped front (i.e. my opinion). These vehicles are rare so if you can find one in good condition, I suggest you buy it and try it out. Some say that you have to be a mechanic to own one but that's not true. All vehicles need to be maintained and the 1994 GMC Jimmy was no different. If it idles rough, change the EGR valve and away you go.
