Haha, I forgot about this thread. The guy still drives this truck every day and has had ZERO problems with it.

Selling the '91 S-10 I bought to steal the rust-free bed from.

Cons:
It's ugly
It's high miles (almost 212K)
The windshield leaks (needs re-sealed)
It's ugly
Passenger shoulder strap won't retract
Horn doesn't work
It's ugly

Pros:
Heat works well
A/C blows cold (yes, it really does)
Runs decent (4.3)
Tranny shifts great (700R4)
Brakes work great
Cruise control works
No oil leaks, doesn't seem to burn it either
Drives down the road decent
Averages 22 mpg city/highway
All four tires match and have some life left
All gauges work

$500 firm. If you can look past the ugly, it's a great little pickup. Here's pics from when I bought it. I have since removed all the silly trim, straightened the mangled fender a little, and swapped beds.

I always kinda liked those wheels, but they were just the 14" version. I liked the champagne color the PO had painted them too.

Maybe it's just me, but it's fun to occasionally randomly dig up some old a$$ thread from the past. Lol
