The truck now has over 300,000 miles does not smoke. Drives not much different than new. Very few repairs. I've owned about every kind of truck you can think of. This is absolutly the all around best. I drive 40,000 miles per year. I expect to get over 1/2 milion miles on this one. Good fuel economy. Sharp and dependable. My only complaint is catalytic converter makes a lot of noise. Headlights do not project very well. However, 1 water pump, 1 alternator, 2 batteries, 8 sets of tires, 100 oil changes 3 transmission fluid changes 3 rear end oil changes and many tanks of gas is all that has been put into this truck.
This truck stays true to its owner

I bought this truck in 2018 after it had sat for 8 years. I charged the battery and it started right up. I’ve been driving it daily ever since. I run my contracting company out of it now. About 400-500 pounds of tools live in the bed at all times and it still gets 19 mpg day-in/day-out. Now has 190,000 miles on it and I have no intention of getting rid of it. I have had to replace the parts that had worn out from sitting and redo things like fluids, but it has still been an inexpensive truck to maintain. For a 1/2 ton truck this old it is just an absolute work horse. Yesterday I pulled three 1,100 pound bedloads of demo waste up an incredibly steep driveway and the truck was happy as could be. Brakes nice, steers nice, and pulls nice. I have the absolute bare bones, bench seat, manual, reg cab, crank windows, 2WD, no A/C, and I couldn’t ask for more from the thing. It loves to do it’s job. For anyone interested in the backstory: My dad bought the truck in 99 with about 15,000 on it. I grew up riding in the middle of the bench seat. Rode cross country in it. Learned to drive stick in it. Drove it in high school. In 2018 it was going to be brought to the junk yard because it had just been sitting for a few years. I decided to buy it and use it as a chance to learn how to do bodywork. I fixed up the body on weekends and drove it during the week. Now my dog, my girlfriend, and I love taking it to get our Christmas trees and go to the beach. I get offers on it in parking lots. This truck is sort of the end of the old boxy trucks, and you can feel the soul it has in it.

The 1998 Chevy Regular Cab Shortbed Pickup Truck is 'bulletproof'. All aspects of this truck far outdistanced what I had expected. The mileage is great, the appearance is very eye catching and the interior is well thought out.

Bought this truck brand new. Drives nice. I've had it 4 years now and it still drives like it's brand new. No squeaks or rattles at all. Still real tight. Upgraded the stereo. Great and easy to clean; I have dogs. I also put much larger tires on it so it looks tough.
