1991 Chevrolet S-10 User Reviews

Very Dependable And Stylish. — Great little truck that I bought used. It originally used to be a work truck so it needed some body work and I am still upgrading the interior. I love the body style with plenty of leg room. I have had to perform very few repairs and it has been very dependable. It is a blast to drive with the 2.8 V6 and manual transmission and still gets about 25 MPG.

Primary Use: Commuting to work

Great Utility Vehicle, Just Adequate As A Daily Driver. — When used as a winter driver or as a utility vehicle for hauling, hunting, or off-roading, this truck is great. I have found the 4.3L V6 coupled with the 4x4 nigh unstoppable in snow or mud. I've made it through drifts 3 feet deep, even while traveling uphill on tires with very little tread remaining. I have used my truck in one of my own moves and have helped many friends and family with moving duties, in which the hauling ability of the S10 has always proved invaluable. The extended cab is great for stowing tools, hunting gear, towstraps, ropes, chains, flashlights, and the like, and also features two small flip-down seats which are suitable only for children. However, the benefits of the extended cab come at the cost of a short bed, which cuts down on hauling capacity and makes hauling longer objects somewhat difficult if they cannot rest atop the tailgate or safely hang off of the back of the truck with the tailgate down. The all-steel body construction lends itself to significant rust issues if driven through the winters, which can result in some maintenance issues (rusted gas tank, brake lines, fuel lines). I've also found that the doors tend to sag over time due to their solid steel construction, which means completely closing the door requires one to pick up on the door while closing it. There is no factory hitch, which is a major drawback. I purchased my S10 with an after-market bumper-mounted hitch in place, which did not stand up to the weight of a medium sized trailer. The overall ride comfort is low, as handling is somewhat sloppy and there is pronounced body lean through curves. Fuel economy ranges from 16-20 mpg. Seats are of low quality and are not suited for extended drives. The lack of power accessories can make driving monotonous. An excellent utility vehicle or winter driver, the 4x4 S10 is not for families, for those with extended daily commutes, or for those who enjoy a comfort-laden driving experience.

Primary Use: Utility (towing boats, transporting cargo, etc.)

Project Dime — THis is my project. The original engine is still in there, and it's running great. Very fun to drive, the 5-speed tranny coupled with the low-geared possitraction diff makes for lots of burned tires. I got to pretty my truck up soon.
