2003 S-10 Base

I was given this truck. It belonged to a elderly gentleman that I was a caregiver for. It has 26,000 miles on it. It's the base model. The only extras on it are a/c and cd player. No cruise no tilt no pw pl. The dash is sun damaged badly because it sat a lot. Otherwise it's basically a new truck. I have all repair work records. It rides like a truck. It doesn't quite jar your teeth out but close. It has the 4.3 V6 that has enough power for it's size. It has manual windows which I like. Less crap to break 😆. It's not that great on gas. I get a solid 20 mpg. It's better than it's rating of 14mpg so I guess that's ok. To be a free truck I'm happy to have it. It will serve me well if the dash don't fall off 🤣

Great Little Truck

This vehicle is excellent for every day use. With a Topper on the bed,it serves almost every need I have. I have a small gardening service and the ease of transporting Plants and bags of fertilizer and other supplies is made simple with the low entrance to the truck bed. is a great vehicle for every other shopping trip also. The excellent economy makes it ideal for city and thru-way drives. Economy, comfort cargo space makes it almost the perfect vehicle.

S-10

Thought I was buying a decent quality, economical, dependable little truck. WRONG! 17mpg, gutless performance, windows don't seat properly when I try to close them (screeching wind noise), hyper-sensitive ABS brakes, seatbelts that lock in place and don't permit any movement, backache-generating seat, cheap/chintzy plastic all throughout the cab, tires that crumble, PLASTIC(!) intake manifold, clutch mastercylinder, fuel tank and shock absorbers. Vehicle appears to have been manufactured from recycled beer cans and plastic coat- hangers. Keep hoping it either burns to the ground or somebody steals this piece of rolling trash. Never again, GM!

S10 ZQ8

The S10 is, in my opinion, a great value in today's automotive market. Yes the design is old and the engine is not the most refined. GM will fix that in a few months with the release of the all new Colorado and Canyon. However, the S10 gets the job done quite well. With the ZQ8 package and a strong V6, I can tackle the curvy backroads as well as weekend chores. I do pay a price for the tight suspension. The ride is harsh. Right now is a great time to take advantage of the rebates and finance rates. My truck is loaded. I paid thousands under sticker and I have no intrest to pay. If that's not a great deal I don't know what is.
