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.

Peek automotive design
part availability
i bought mine in 2019 at 191k and im now at almost 204k. i’ve gotten a lot of work done on it but that’s because it wasn’t that well maintained but even before i started fixing it i drove it as is and never left me stranded. spider injectors in the cpi is not the best and if you have this motor use e free gas because the ethanol in gas is bad for those injectors and they also don’t make them anymore so you will have to send them out for service. i also have been chasing and egr code even with replacing it so having the obd 1 makes it harder to diagnose. i will say though the body style of that truck makes up for everything else.

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.
