The redesign of the Sonoma was big for the compact truck market, as the S10 was redesigned as well. But the first year for these models had a lot of reliability issues that made the trucks difficult to live with. Electrical problems galore throughout the cabin and the interior which made the truck a nasty project to fix. This also meant that mechanics would charge a premium to work on the thing. The Sonoma did have some positive attributes but the negatives far outweigh the positives for the first year of the new design.
