Since the day I drove it off the lot I've enjoyed the ride, Sleek running always a head turner. Will never sell this truck. I utilized this truck as if it was a big hauling truck. Hauled trailers and boats with it and it keeps on running. Only problem I had with it was an Oil cooler line break 2 years ago. Other than that great set of wheels.
2000 Chevy s10 LS 4.3L RWD
Never left me on the side of the road, can't be grateful enough. However, this bastard has eaten up every bit of free money I've had for the past 6 months. Bought at 345k KMS, now at 380k KMS, so she's past her life span. In the past 35k KMS it's had 2 new sets of ac Delco spark plugs and wiring, new shocks, new rear leaf springs, lion's share of the front end replaced, rotors, wheel bearings, and pads, as well as prescribed maintenance, trans fluid and filter, regular full synth oil changes. Other things I can't recall. This truck will get you there, If you baby her. Overall the workmanship of it is Chevy. Not great. Prepare to spend money and constantly pay attention to how she's running and handling, because something will fail. 4l60e tranny is notoriously unreliable. Luckily mine is ok. Lord knows how long she'll last. Drive this truck only if your insurance covers theft, and prepare an alibi for when you finally dump the bastard in one of those liberal socialist hellholes like Portland as a barely mobile homeless shelter.

Looks cool, but that's about it.
This is a cool looking truck because of the big tires and how high it sits. However, I have had this car for about a year and have spent over $5,000 in repairs. The whole front end needed to be replaced, body fell apart rapidly, and truck makes all kinds of funny noises. Truck look very nice when it was purchased, now I am almost embarressed to drive it.
Above Average Repair Costs at 78,000 mi
I have spent over $4400 in repairs in '05/'06 - 78,000- 91,000 miles - upper & lower ball joints, wheel bearings, oxygen sensor, oil cooler lines, shocks, brakes, belts, and tune- up. There is a moisture problem with the rotor cap screen which affects performance. The plastic club door latch broke off at 60,000 ($145 repair) and the passenger seat recliner arm busted ($245 repair).The current Consumer Report lists the S10 on the Worst Car List. I spend over $300 per month on gas for work. I am going broke owning this vehicle but the mechanics keep telling me "it's a good truck." I have not yet hit 100,000 miles and am worried about what's ahead. Anyone out there have similar stories?
