I do all of my own mechanic work so I know what was really wrong. And everything was done right.
But that's what you get when you buy General Motors.
If you treat the truck right, it WILL treat you right. My 1991 S-10, 245,000 miles, never had ANY major breakdowns of any major part. I love my truck and hope to be buried in it someday. If you don't like it, get rid of it.
I bought my 91 S-10 with 79,000 miles on it, it now has 0ver 186,000 and I have had no major problems. Basically the only problem was a cracked exhaust manifold. I have pulled trailers, and crossed mountains. It's been great. Give me a Chevy any day! Alan Stonecipher Corpus Christi, Texas.
Lol I traded a snowblower for my 91 s-10, changed wheel cylinders, brake lines, has 183000 miles on it, has 2.8 v-6, will burn the tires off the truck, rides like a caddy, I love this truck.
Have you ever seen a ford ranger of the same era 88-92 go 200,000 with out an engine failure or with out a failure of that junk aod trans every 200 feet? chevys rule fords are best sellers just like busch beer they are cheaper.
Apart from the fact that it rides like crap, I love my 91 s-10 blazer more than anything. I bought it at 139000 miles at 16, now have 210000 miles and am 19, and it still runs like a champ, with good maintenance you can't beat them, and to all those trashing newer (95+) blazers, just buy one with over 100000 miles, cause at that mileage its probably not a lemon or has had the bugs worked out.
Let me know when you come across a Ford that doesn't need a transmission or a power steering pump 2 years after it rolls off of the showroom floor; all those years Ford has been making cars and trucks, and not 1 of their so-called engineers can come up with a part that actually works, and more importantly lasts like bowties equipment, yes I love my Chevys.
