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 =)

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..
