03 Sonoma SLS 4cyl extended cab- Wonderful Truck by Tucson on 12/14/2011. Trim: 2003 GMC Sonoma SLS Ext. Cab 2WD, Owned 1 year.
1
Pros: The Sonoma extended cab in black is a beautiful little truck. Black is the perfect color as everything from the body to the bedliner to the tires matches and the red GMC logo stands out. The mpg seem to be pretty good (expected a little more from the smaller 4cyl engine). The ride is smooth and the brakes are outstanding. Interior space is great and the bed is perfect size for everything that I've ever needed to haul. It gets me safely from point A to point B. I hope to get 100k more miles out of it (97k currently).
Cons: Not much except: poor acceleration, 3rd door handle broke quickly (replaced for $15 w/ metal handle from ebay), and air conditioning compressor went out ($600 fix). I also wish the extended cab version had a 4th door. The 3rd door works find for me but if someone else wants to put their stuff in the back they have to put the passenger seat down to do so. Its a lot nicer to just open the small rear door but not a big deal.
Overall review: This is a great little truck that I would definitely buy again if I had to do it over. I love almost everything about it with the main deterrent being the slow acceleration (4cyl). The looks are great and I have never had an major problems.

Future Ford buyer by philthiest1 on 01/15/2008. Trim: 2003 GMC Sonoma SL Ext. Cab 2WD, Owned 5 years.
Useful?
Pros: The car has plenty of power. Its a classic model for what you pay. You can do a lot of after market things to get even more power out of it. the manual tranny makes it fun to drive.
Cons: Cheap component make the whole car seem cheap. Third door will break, middle console never closed properly, and the apron on the stick shift pops up and prevents you from shifting.
Overall review: Great work performing truck.
