What’s new
The Chevrolet S-10, like its GMC cousin, the Sonoma, is only available as a crew cab 4x4 for the 2004 model year.
Edmunds says
Held over until its replacement, the Colorado, hits full production, the S-10 only makes sense as a no-frills work truck.

I love this truck

2004 Chevrolet S-10 4dr Crew Cab LS 4WD SB (4.3L 6cyl 4A)
This is my first truck and I am just
delighted with it. I love its 4 wheel
drive capability yet it is still a
sweet looking truck. I love my truck,
I think chevy may have gotten a
lifetime customer out of me

2004 Chevrolet S-10 4dr Crew Cab LS 4WD SB (4.3L 6cyl 4A)
I just bought this 2004 s10 Crew Cab
and i love it i test drove the new
Colorado and they are nice but i don't
think they compare to the s10. The s10
is much more comfortable and has a lot
more torque. I don't know why Chevy is
getting rid of it. All i buy is Chevy
vehicles i think they are the best and
nothing else even can come close.

2004 Chevrolet S-10 4dr Crew Cab LS 4WD SB (4.3L 6cyl 4A)
I agree with the other posting, love the truck, but it is a money pit.
Had to put in another rear end at 70,000 miles, and know another guy also did.
the road noise is terrible, wheel bearing bad, new radiator, gas tank broke between the nozzle and tank, fuel pump gone, just to name a few.
I have had the truck from 13,000 miles.
have had other s10's in past and no problems at the rate … of this one.

Glad I bort it

2004 Chevrolet S-10 4dr Crew Cab LS 4WD SB (4.3L 6cyl 4A)
I have owned my S-10 Crew cab for 3
month now, and have taken it from the
outer beaches of Long Island up to
Plattsburgh where I now live. It is a
happy median between a fast car and an
off road vehicle. Meaning while the
suspesion is great, it lacks ground
clearance. But being lower to the
ground makes it hand real well when
cruising at 80-90mph on the highway.
Chevy … is coming out with the Colorado
next year which seems to be a nice
truck, look at the specs. S-10 has more
torque has the proven 4.3 v6 which was
used in Syclone in the early 90s. Where
is the improvement? .
