1992 Chevrolet S-10 Tahoe review from North America
"A better bargain than a full size truck"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Engine Over heated and blew
Heater core has a small leak.
Exhaust manifold broke.
Catalytic converter plugged.
Heater only has one speed, high.
General comments?
This truck came fairly equipped with fog lights, air conditioning, power steering, cruise control, and a factory CD player. All options still work perfect. I got the truck because some people were traveling through my state, New Mexico and were just running straight water in the cooling system. New Mexico is basically a desert and gets cold in the winter time. Their radiator froze and the engine over heated. They to get back to Florida so I gave them $500 for the truck. Surprisingly there is no rust considering the truck came from Palm Beach, Florida. When I got it to start again the engine was knocking. So an Engine rebuild and I have a Truck Worth $5000 in my area. Trucks are worth a lot here. I built the engine to put out a little more power. It will cruise at a 110 miles per hour easily. Or that's what I got a traffic citation for. Plus it gets 35-40 miles per gallon in town or freeway. Gas is easy to afford. The pay load is rated at 1340 pounds which is great for a truck this size. This was definitely a smart buy.
