1991 Chevrolet S-10 review from North America
"This truck is most likely the best vehicle I will ever own"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Replaced a pilot bearing, because in the first 2 years I had it, I spun the tires at every red light.
I put new brushes in the starter about 100,000 miles ago. Still has the original starter.
Painted it in 2004.
Seats are worn, but to be expected at 230,000 miles.
Has a cracked windshield.
Has a problem with the hydraulic clutch. Haven't had time to work on it yet.
General comments?
Gave $6000 for the truck 17 years ago. Still runs strong.
It's not fast, but it pulls well. Over the years, I have used it to haul rocks, dirt, gravel, my ATV, and even drag 15" dia. x 12 foot logs out of the woods back home.
The main downfall is that the cab is small. It's a little cramped on long trips, and this truck has seen its fair share of those.
