1988 Chevrolet S-10 Extended Cab review from North America
"A damn good truck"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Water pump, radiator, fuel pump, drive shaft, distributor, brake pads (I bought the first pair at PEP Boys with a life time warranty), muffler, tail pipe, rear wheel bearings and seals, screws up rear brakes, front end parts to maintain allignment. I tow a 5000lb fifth wheel RV, so I don't think this is excessive maintenance. I do my own repairs except for alignment, tires and A/C.
General comments?
It's been a damn fine truck, I use it for work and for vacations. I tow a fifth wheel to the mountains of Colorado from Texas with it.
