My mother had a white single cab Sonoma she bought new, I remember that it had purple and blue pinstripes going from the cab to the tail and thought it looked like one of those old Dewars milkshake cups. It was a manual and both me and my younger brother remember her teaching us how it worked even though we were in the 3rd-4th grade. I remember getting in from elementary and smelling the cloth seats and how clean she kept everything. The country songs that would play from Garth Brooks to Toby Keith would almost always be playing. Eventually we moved out of state from Hawaii to California and couldn’t take everything including the truck. I would love to see it again or at the least get one as similar as it can possibly be. Even down to the pinstripes.
It's amazing how sentimental a vehicle can become due to all of the memories they can hold through years of use with family. This was a great truck! Hope you can find one like your mom's someday!

You'll love it. I just got me a 2000 Sonoma 2.2 liter, 5-speed manual. There's a light that comes on in the dashboard display that tells you when to shift to help save gas.
Great simple truck! I would just drop in a bed liner, Done. The bench seat is great for squeezing a passenger in the middle if need be. Steel wheels can be dinged up, cheap to replace if needed. No AC or power windows to fix. I miss small basic pick ups.
I've had 8 S10 and Sonoma pickups...I had a 98 new almost the same as yours....it was 4 with the 5 speed....yours was called a dealer optioned model....only a dealer could make the options available to you it was GMs way for their dealer to make a few bucks on a baseline model....I have one now with almost 400 thousand on it and I've replaced the brakes tires hoses belts and radiator.
That’s about close as I’ll ever get at finding a gmc Sonoma that has 61k miles iam going to be buying one soon it’s extended cab from a family member that taken good care of it
brorowcarwiz Funny thing is, My dad actually just bought a 2004 Safari van. He is keeping the 95, He just bought that as an extra van! I’ll be posting a video of it soon.
I HAVE THE EXACT SAME SET UP MAYBE YOU CAN HELP ME OUT WITH ME.....EVERY TIME I ACCELERATE IT SOUNDS LIKE I HAVE A HOLE SOMEWHERE IN THE EXHAUST OR LIKE ITS MISSING A SEAL SOMEWHERE BUT EVERYTHING IS OKAY. IVE TOOKIN IT WITH MECHANICS AND TO MUFFLER SHOPS BOTH SAY EVERYTHING IS GOOD. BUT THE LOUD ANNOYING SOUND IS THERE PLEASE HELP
I love basic trucks. No failing power window switches. AC to recharge. Manual transmission is simpler, cheaper to maintain, more engaging. Cheap to buy. Cheap to maintain.

I have a 99 4.3 engine with 73,000 no rust, bed liner, topper that's nice. Was elderly owned. Like the white one too!!
I’d really like to find a clean little truck like this! Nice find!
BlakesCars2 I’m glad I found it! I had been looking for something like this to use as a daily driver for a while.
Cool, I just got one with 82,567! and it's 1997 Sonoma SLS! Enjoy it!
Strange how that truck was optioned. No A/C, bench no armrest, no cruise, no tach but yet its got the V6 and automatic.
my 99 s10 got A/C optioned, 60/40 split cloth with armrest, but no cruise and no tach with the 4.3 auto
Love the intro song, even though it's not a Chevy! Still fitting! :)
I thought so too :)
Kinda the same thing
It actually is a Chevy, gmc and Chevrolet is the same company
@@loganarnold00 It's a GM, GM owns both brands, the trucks are essentially the same, but Chevy is NOT the company who manufactured the trucks, GM is.

Nice!

I was close at least with the platform haha! Looks really clean! I love the SL trim.
Great guess! Very close! I am quite fond of it as well. Makes for a really clean look.
Awesome little truck clean too
Thanks! It really is clean!

Hey man nice truck
Thanks J.R.!
Darn! I was so close with the S-10 guess. Although, they are the same basic truck.
They are pretty much the same!
EliYourCarGuy love the Sonoma and how clean it ia
They are mechanically identical only difference is the front end

That truck is beautiful to me.
Hey, nice truck for 1999.
Thank you!
That’s about close as I’ll ever get at finding a gmc Sonoma that has 61k miles iam going to be buying one soon it’s extended cab from a family member that taken good care of it
That’s one of the cleanest truck very nice
Nice find.
TJC450 Thanks man!
TJC450 ahh that stinks. The 2.2l is a decent motor! My grandmother has a Cavalier with that engine and it has over 100,000 miles and still runs good.
Nice truck!
Very cool!
Thanks Dave!
Are there any differences between the GMC Sonoma and the Chevy S-10 in quality ?
No the GMC is only different in sport suspension options and ground effects
Are you selling this truck? I've seen it for sale on Craigslist and it's the same exact photos where you're shooting this video.
Ummmmm obviously he bought what you saw for sale
nice. looking for one like this...condition, low miles
Nice :)
I have a 1995 Chevy Silverado c1500 and a 1996 gmc Sonoma sl
Nice! They are great trucks!
Thanks

Will the electronic flute-tone from a 1988-97 GMC Sonoma fit into this GMC Sonoma in place of the chime?
