1989 Chevrolet S-10 Basic Model review from North America
"Takes a licking, but keeps on kicking."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Original exhaust fell off two months after I purchased it.
Both rear tail lights were replaced.
The Thermostat was replaced.
The headlight switch was replaced.
The left blinker stays on, but does not blink until you turn it on.
Replaced the battery.
Clutch went out 115,000 miles.
General comments?
Good gas mileage if you don't run it hard.
This truck has had its problems, but I would buy another in a heartbeat.
Very comfortable small truck, handles a 6 foot 3 330 pound man good!
I put Pioneer 52 watt by 4 CD/MP3/CDR/CRW deck in it.
