well i bought my firts truck tonight it is a 89 s10 with a 4.3 liter v6 the body is a lil rough but the motor and transmission is in perfect con. i paid $700 I:I
 
What is it with all you guys buying those old S10s? I find it funny, that was the truck all my friends that didn't work on the farm bought, unless they had a Chevelle or Monte Carlo..the real rich guys drove the IROC-Z Camaros. We used to have so much fun in those S10s, and the perfect size to haul a 2-Stroke. I:I

Country songs don't get specific, they just talk about "a truck"....some guys get cocky and mention that blue oval POS, but hey, we can't all be cool. B)

Mouthing off about Fords eh? Just remember who DIDN'T take YOUR TAX DOLLARS to bail them out of THEIR Finacial Fu*k-up!!! That's right, FORD! The ONLY American car/truck manufacturer that Didn't Screw the pooch and CHARGE US!!! So keep driving you Dodge and Chevys, you already Paid for em...TWICE! LolI:I

Btw, I've owned em all and they are ALL WAY OVERPRICED, they ALL break down, and they ALL get stuck in the Mud! ALL OF EM!!!

^^^^^ We are all gonna pay no matter what brand you drive.Just cause Ford didn't take any bail out money doesn't mean Ford owners only pay once.You buy a Ford you pay for the bailout.You buy a Chevy you pay for the bailout.You buy any brand car you pay twice.None of them save you money just cause one didn't take any money.No matter what we all pay twice.Blame your government on that one.Not that it will get you anywhere.First off I got to agree that fords suck.I have owned plenty of vehicles from Ford and still own one.I am selling my current f-150 supercab to get another chevy.Did I mention I just got rid of my wifes ford with only 135,000 on it cause it blows transmissions every 36,000 miles.Fords are not built like they used to be.Anything Ford being built after 97 IMO is a piece of junk.Again in my opinion.
 
My buddy has a 93 S10 with the 4.3. I'm always askin him when he's gonna stop dropping money into and just get a man's truck, with a V8. Lol he just let's it roll off his back and stands by his S10 soi gotta respect him for that. Grats on the new ride!
 
I have a 91 that I use as a work beater. gets 18.5-20 mpg depending on the driving that I do.

doing a 350 swap in one of these is really really easy with the parts available. all that you need to get are the headers, motor mounts, a v8 distributor, and then a 350 prom. some exhaust modifications may be needed too. the gas mileage after the swap is usually really good. you just don't have to work that 350 to move it down the road.
 
well i just f***** up really bad i shaterd the driver side winshield but found one on cl for20 I:I so hopefully some time this week we can go and get it
