many photographs of the pickup due to third-party website
limitations. To be sure you access all the more than 175

Real good. GM has created a state-of-the-art compact pickup,
attractively styled and attractively priced. -NewCarTestDrive.com,
November 1999 The test drive was a surprise: Call it high school
behavior, but it was an honest mistake. It could have happened to
anyone. A bit too much pressure on the gas pedal and my vehicle's
rear tires overpowered the pavement with a resounding squeal of
burned rubber. Heads turned to identify the source of the display
of bad street manners. A Chevrolet Corvette? Ford Mustang GT? Dodge
Viper? The answer is none of the above. But would you believe a
pickup truck? Yes, and a compact pickup truck at that. In
particular, a GMC Sonoma pickup.... Offered here is a 1995 GMC
Sonoma pickup in the always-appealing Ford Grabber blue over black.
The truck has been fully upgraded, re-powered, slammed and
air-suspension equipped, and customized with highest-quality
components. (The full list of added features and components is
printed above.) Show or go, this Sonoma is a standout. The Grabber
blue exterior paint was professionally applied to a very high
standard. All appropriate body surfaces-including door jambs, cargo
box, and under-hood panels-have been properly painted. The result
is a smooth, evenly glossy finish in a color that is likely unique
in the Sonoma world. (To best assess the quality of the paint and
trim finishes, be sure to view the close-up photographs of the car
in the accompanying gallery.) In addition to the obviously lowered
(and air-raisable ride height, other custom exterior touches
include the simplified front grille, black-painted cargo area, a
shaved tailgate, removal of all factory badging from the body, and
the removal of a portion of the cargo bed and rear fender tops to
expose the rear air-lift suspension components and geometry. The
truck's body is entirely free of dings, dents, or other damage. All
cabin glass and stock lighting lenses are clear and free of cracks.
Boss@ platinum-finish 20-inch 5-spoke wheels are mounted with
very-low-profile Delinte® performance tires. Inside, the truck is
an appealing combination of both stock and upgraded components.
Fabric seat upholstery in two-tone gray is stock and has been
well-maintained. Black carpeting covers the cabin floors. Door trim
is stock with stereo speakers. The stock dashboard includes the
original instrument cluster with a Terminator X digital
engine-monitoring interface added in the center of the speedometer.
Also added are controls for the air suspension, an
under-dash-mounted oil-pressure gauge, and an upgraded audio head
unit with Bluetooth® capability in the factory-radio location.
Heating and ventilation controls are stock. (Air conditioning has
been deleted.) An extra-long shifter for the TH350 automatic
transmission is mounted on the floor. Under the hood, it's all
business. The LM7, 5.3-liter V8 makes a very impressive performance
statement. (Again, please see the accompanying list of engine
upgrades.) Front fender liners have been deleted. Viewed from
