Faults:

My left rear axle seal started to leak the day I bought the truck.

Seats have started to wear.

Tachometer has stopped working.

Air conditioning has stopped working.

Winsdhield wipers have stopped working.

The 4WD switch keeps blowing the fuse.

Leaking oil from oil pan.

Rear cab light has burnt out.

General Comments:

Generally a very good truck and usually reliable.

4WD works very well when it doesn't blow the fuse.

Very economic and useful for a student.

Handles similar to a shopping cart, and the brakes make you think you have a heavy trailer behind you.

Dashboard controls could be placed in a better position.

Faults:

Wiper control module went out at 80,000 miles, $110.00.

Service engine soon light comes on and off; has done this since 74,000 miles, yet dealer says no codes show for it, $120.00 for codes to not be read.

Wheel sensor controlling the Anti Lock Braking System and dash light for actual anti lock brakes to function went out at 90,000 miles, $250.00.

The 4 wheel drive dash switch had to be replaced at 101,000 miles as button inside broke, $30.00.

Encoder motor on transmission which allows you to switch or engage to 4 wheel drive went out at 114,000 miles, $583.82.

Metal passenger door window crank handle broke in half, $35.00.

General electrical shorts or circuitry faults throughout vehicle.

General Comments:

This truck served me well over the past 4 years until all the electrical problems aroused.

If you have the money and patience as service requires days go for it.

Interior is made cheaply as all plastic and it rattles and squeaks, very noisy after 80,000 miles.

Faults:

The starter, head gasket is leaking, and brakes, and little things.

General Comments:

This truck is good for me, only 17 and the cheapest on insurance, gas is very good to 40 bucks and I get 800km out of it.

Faults:

No problems really, I bought it with a blown engine and put another used engine in it with about 100,000 miles. After I worked a few bugs out from the engine swap, it runs great.

General Comments:

This truck has decent power, although it is geared fairly low for towing so it doesn't have a lot of speed.

It has held up very well for a small truck, I am very hard on it pulling heavy snowmobile trailers, loads of cement, and even towing cars on the highway with a dolly. This truck takes the abuse and loves it.

I love the interior and the overall look of the truck, it is very sharp.

Faults:

Had to do only minor repairs after purchase, as expected for any used car purchase. Bulbs for the fog lights were hard to find at a reasonable price, but found all I needed online.

Needed new seat adjustment handles. Paid ~$7.00 each.

General Comments:

Truck runs excellent. Gets 22 mph.

The truck does drive heavy. Slow take offs and hard to stop.

Faults:

Lets see:

Water pump right after I got it, tires, muffler and tail pipe, hoses and belts, starter.

Oh yeah, the lever to adjust the seat back broke off and I went to a Chevy dealer (Hey, Sonoma, S-10, same thing), they said a new seat module would cost $450 so I said screw it and bought a $10 vice grip instead to adjust the seat.

General Comments:

Overall it is pretty reliable, but the interior is crap, the drivers side seat has a hole in it and as I mentioned, the seat module is shot.

On the passenger side door this plastic piece keeps falling off and the window crank keeps coming out.

The paint is still good but a little faded.

The engine is very sluggish, especially when you put the AC on.

As for being dependable, I give it a thumbs up.
