My sister and brother-in-law just bought a 2004 Envoy with the 4.2-liter I6. I think it has about 40k miles.
I haven't said anything critical, though it seems to me they bought one huge gas-guzzling PIA. Is there anything they can do, or should do, or anything I can advise them to do, that will make their Envoy-owning experience as good as it can be? Best oil, best OCI, best transmission maintenance, best brake and suspension parts, best cooling system checks, etc. And of course how to get the best fuel economy, considering 15 mpg is typical.
My guess is they plan to keep this truck for ten years or longer, assuming they can afford paying for fuel. Your ideas?
