1989 Chevrolet S-10 Tahoe review from North America
"An excellant and reliable truck!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
When purchased it needed a lot:
A rear seal.
Rear shocks.
Rear brakes
A rear window shock.
Some minor body work
New tires.
At about 163,000 it needed a new battery.
At about 164,000, it needed a ring job.
Also at about 164,000 it needed front brakes.
Also at about 164,000 it needed front shocks.
Unfortunately at 164,456 I blew a bearing in the crankshaft.
General comments?
Over all this have been a wonderful truck to own!!
The seats are very confortable and the ride is excellent. I couldn't ask for anything more.
Unfortunatly, I decided to junk it because I didn't have the money to replace the engine.
If I had the money to fix this truck I would in a heart beat.
I loved this truck for the 1,500 miles I had it.
I loved it so much I have purchased a 1991 S-10 Pickup.
I think GM did an outstanding job designing this truck.
