Takes a licking and keeps on ticking

It has a few quirks but this little truck has never left me stranded. It's got between 250 - 300k miles on it.(odometer quit at 177k ). It's been in a few minor front end bangs but drives and runs fantastic. Love it!!! Looking for another one. This little truck has been the BEST vehicle I have ever owned. Bought a brand spanking new S-10 in 1993 and it couldn't even make it to 100k before it started falling apart. Ranger drivers for life.

Basic pickup, small and cramped inside but, i've more than got my money out of this truck. I've put over 230,000 miles on this truck and it still runs good and uses very little oil.

I really like this truck. It has been very reliable so far. It has 107,000 miles on it and still has most of the factory installed parts. I wish it had a little more power though.

Fantastic Truck

I love this truck! I bought it in Jan of 2002 with 98,000 miles on it. I put 25,000 miles on it in the following year and have been nothing but pleased. I did have to have the clutch worked on which set me back about $500, but that has been the only maintenance in over 28,000 miles. This truck is fun to drive, does great in 4WD, has enough room in the extended cab to either store a lot of gear, or take two people on a short trip. Would definitely buy it again if given the chance. Also seems to have more cab room than the Tacoma.

Best 1/4 ton ever

This truck keeps going and going. Mine has 170 000 kms on it now, and other than oil changes, the only repair I ever made was brake pad changes. The truck is small a good on gas - but it is still powerful enough to pull a boat or ski doo. What more could you ask for?
