There’s a mysterious and infuriating malfunction with various 2014 – 2016 Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra half-ton pickup trucks, and whether it’s really taking GM this long to figure out the problem, or they’ve simply dropped the ball, owners are left waiting with little-to-no help.
Remember the GMC Syclone? The early 90’s, all-time all-wheel drive hot rod truck with a 280 horsepower turbocharged V6 Mitsubishi motor? Yeah, that one.
In August the famous Carlisle Truck Nationals pays tribute to sport trucks like the 1991 GMC Syclone for its quarter-century anniversary, so start looking.
