2000 GMC Jimmy Reviews, Pricing & Specs

Strong acceleration, great low end torque. Some body roll. Exhaust note is low and mellow at idle, but growls at full throttle. Build quality good. Some squeaks and rattles, especially in the door panels. Bose sound system really thumps. Basic repairs and maintenance needed. No surprises. Repairs are extremely affordable due to the huge popularity of the Blazer/Jimmy/Bravada/S-10/Sonomas that share the platform. Exterior styling unique from Blazers. Unlike most cars, looks great in two-tone. Interior looks best in grey/brown. Dark grey is too dark. Floor shifter is nice (certain years, others had column shifter) Seats are comfortable. Plenty of leg room in the back. Pickup sized cargo area with seats folded down. Gas mileage is pretty poor, (12mpg city/19 highway) but for the power at the disposal of your right foot, I'll take it =D Blast to drive; handles mountain roads like a champ. Only kill joy is the body roll in sharp corners, but the high output 4.3 makes up for any braking you have to do. High end acceleration is adequate, but low end is where the Jimmy hauls. Feels safe. Sunroof is the best option on the car. 4x4 system is a champ, ground clearance reasonable. Suspension is both comfortable on road and competent off road, but feels too soft at times (luxury ride suspension is standard on the SLE) Headlights could be brighter, but an HID system or Silvania Silverstars is an easy fix. As a student, I sometimes wish I had bought a sporty car instead, but when the weather turns bad, you're headed to the mountains, or you need the extra space, you're reminded why this is such a great truck. And when you are in the mood to drive, you aren't penalized for buying an SUV. Long live the Jimmy =)

This is the second jimmy that I have owned. Good power and reliable. Goes just about anywhere you want to.

My GMC is a great vehicle. I get about 22 MPG and it rides great. Handles nice and is very comfortable. Door panels rattle a bit but that is about it.

4WD system very good; excellent winter driver; feeling of security; medium price tires work well; wish it got better mpg; easy to work on;wish they didnt rust ; a true offroader; blind spot medium-large. Escape and rav4 are other option...but not for offroad!

# Performance is excellent, good acceleration and braking, and handling not too bad. # Build quality, the quality of the structure of the vehicle very cool - does not need a lasting reform, and there are disturbing sounds. # Appearance - both interior and exterior design - look relatively good for the year of the vehicle internally and externally to an end either. # Cost of ownership, gas mileage, and maintenance - the cost of an average vehicle ownership, and gas mileage is also not quite the one that, and maintenance is good, I was the problem lies in the prices of spare parts. # Fun factor, this is the car fun to drive - the car is comfortable for the driver and passenger and for the rear seats are not comfortable for the car I was generally acceptable.

It is my first car. It needed some work but it handles good and I basically have no problems with it.

The Jimmy is a great SUV it has a lot of space and is great to drive in the winter and summer. I wish they still made SUV's this way. One of the best things is that it didn't cost me a lot of money to drive it.

its a dependable driver in any weather! great on snow ,but i wont be worrying about that now that i live in florida. i have it for over a year now & has never let me down.i also have had 3 other Jimmys in the past 89 91 & 03.

After replacing all the steering components in the front end, and then replacing all the ball joints and shocks I figured I was home free. Until the transmission decided to go out on me and I didnt have reverse on the day I needed it most... its hard getting people to volunteer to push a 2 plus ton truck up a hill... Otherwise it's pretty fun, 4x4 works great now that the rear end has been changed..
