1991 Chevrolet S-10 review from North America
"Old Betsy just can't be killed"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My water pump needed to be replaced at about 150000 miles.
The clutch was replaced at the same time.
The body on this truck definitely below par. It is rusted completely through in many spots, and the paint has all, but completely fallen off.
General comments?
I trust this truck like I would my mother. It has never once left me anywhere.
This truck has been a newspaper vehicle for about 10 years. I run a paper route that is at least 75 miles every night (365 days a year). I also drive it to my college classes (almost 30 miles away) at least 3 times a week.
I'll drive this truck until it simply won't go no more. Then I'll debate whether to rebuild or not.
