Pros: Great handling, dependable, 4X4
Cons: Hump in front passenger foot space
The Bottom Line: The GMC Jimmy is a true OFF-ROAD vehicle - yet stylish, sporty and easy to handle.
After my husband and I moved to our new home in the rural mountains of North Idaho we quickly realized we'd need four wheel drive to get up our steep driveway in the winter.
My husband chose a GMC longbed truck, and I decided on the 2000 GMC...

Pros: A little quick, a little comfy, and a little money
Cons: read my epinion, there's too many to list, but it's still my baby
The Bottom Line: A decent looking car, but mine was just a lemon I guess...
The GMC Jimmy has been around for quite some time now. For the year 2000, in which being it's 30th year in production, you would think that they would make the car/truck, in my opinion, a little better. I bought my 2000 SLS (2Door) Jimmy in late 1999 ...

Pros: Jimmy 2000, What a Jewel in the Class Of SUV's
Cons: Not taking a Test Drive
The Bottom Line: I love my Jimmy and custom with all the extra and Black Onyx/graphite Deluxe Cloth. I wanted all Black.
At GMC, they know that one of the most important thing they can put in a truck is understanding of how it will make it in the real world. They have built thousands of trucks for nearly 100 years. GMC Jimmy 2000 is no exception.

This is a review on the 2000 GMC Jimmy, which is going to be the last production year. Now the GMC ENVOY will take over unless you want to move over to a Chevy Trailblazer, both sister vehicles. When I was visiting my best friend and cousin in Florida...

Several months ago my wife and I picked up our new 2000 Jimmy, the third we've owned. This fact alone should give you a idea of my feelings on this vehicle. We first leased a Jimmy in 1996, trading again in 1998 and again this year. The previous two...

Just imagine your wife, sister or loved one driving this vehicle down your suburbs. Just think about all the double takes by the neighbors who pass her. Actually, they have more than one reasons to look at your wife, sister or loved one. They are...

Even though the Jimmy was the first SUV that I ever drove, I feel that my opinions might be helpful to someone perhaps thinking about going from a sedan to a Jimmy. I got the 2000 Jimmy as an insurance replacement recently when my Honda Accord went in...

Cons: Rear leg room cramped for large adults, gas mileage could be better overall
I leased a 2000 4 door Jimmy a couple of months ago. I wanted a slighter larger SUV than the compact versions available and yet I did not want a gas guzzler. The 4 door Jimmy has plenty of cargo room, especially with the rear seats folded forward and...

Pros: rugged looks, GM reputation, awesome 4X4

The Bottom Line: IF you want a great older SUV, this is the one.
I absolutely despise the car. We bought in on January 13, 2002 used. It has been a very good car. This is what a compact/midsize SUV should be. It has rugged looks, powerful engine, and an awesome 4X4 system. Allright, this isn't the best SUV out ...

Pros: The Jimmy will get you there, be it rain, mud, snow or rocky terrain.
Cons: Right rear brake drum freezing up twice in one year.
The Bottom Line: I've enjoyed my Jimmy but I'll never buy another one because of the brake problem. I recommend you look for something else.
When it comes to a truck to get you through any weather condition, I have to recommend the Jimmy. I drive 57 miles one way to work every day. The Jimmy has delivered me safe and sound. The year I bought the truck, we had 8 inches of snow dumped on us. ...

With this truck you can go anywhere, off-road or road. The Engine is an V6 Vortec 4300 4.3L and automatic transmission. On the Diamond Edition you have a...

This is a great SUV. I have the leather interior and it is very easy to clean and keep looking nice. It's a nice size for those of us who like riding higher than a car, yet aren't looking for a "bus". Maneuvers well. Knock on wood, it hasn't been to...

Pros: Looks SWEET. Slick. Aerodynamic. Powerful. Fast. Roomy. Drives like car but acts like an SUV
Cons: OK..Back seats. Other than that...none
The Bottom Line: Sorry to hear its discontinued after 2002 but nevertheless it was worth every penny; awesome ride and sweet looking.
This was my first SUV but not the first to drive. Got it 4 months ago and after test driving almost all SUV’s, this one just had all the right combinations. Its sister the Blazer unfortunately does not share the good looks; ugly molding and too much...

A TRUE BEEFY SUV

Author's Product Rating:
Recommended: Yes
Pros: Awseome power, stability, safety!!! great for accident survival - like driving an armoured tank
Cons: Poor gas mileage, brakes go quicker than other vehicles due to GURTH of the vehicle.
I have dreamed of owning this SUV for the longest time, and when i got one, i dreamed of driving it. This is a fantastic SUV, the type of SUV that you create memories in. Mine is the Z71 Off Road - 2dr version. the only thing i 'CON' that i have for this vehicle is that it is an absolute PIG on gas. im averaging 370 - 440km/tank. and filling up with $55 a time, really takes a sledge hammer to my wallet. Other than that, you'll feel safe... you'll feel in control... and you'll wanna drive it forever.
