1997 Chevrolet S-10 2 Dr LS 4WD Standard Cab LB Review
ProsGreat mileage, roomy despite the small cab, long bed holds a LOT ConsIt does take work to upkeep it
65
Lasts Long — This was a fun lil truck and took us far. I bought it for very little money $3K and got every penny's worth. It still does about 18 mpg which is great by today's standards. It's not all that fun but it did the job and was great moving when I had to cart things. People are always trying to get me to sell it and I've never done anything to upkeep the body (paint is still good it just has a loose side part near the bumper but still looks good)

My S10 — from point A to point B there really isnt much more to say bout it. it has a Vortec V6 and it will get up and go before you can think about it. however after 100,000 miles ever thing went down hill. but that is typical on all cars unless they have been garage stored since they were bought. | ||

ProsTough truck with good gas milage, and alot of engine. ConsService engine light tends to missfires and the hazard lights sometimes dont work but then again never need to use them

Chevy S-10 — Performance- I have the 2.4 litter engine and it's alot of engine for that little truck. Build Quality- Its a pretty sturdy truck and has seen a little abuse and has stood up to it. Cost of ownership- Is okay on gas about 20 miles per gallon, and its at 160,000 so parts are starting to fail but nothing major. Fun Factor- This car is fun to drive get good burnouts and is just really fun to drive, off the line really fast but govenor kicks in at 95 =/ | ||

ProsLight, great gas mileage, fun to drive. ConsSlow, can't haul very much.

Good Little Hauler. — I purcheased this little truck a little over a year ago, and I haven't had any major problems with it. I drove it from Grand Rapids, MI to Sevierville, TN and back, i averaged 30 MPG, and had a great ride. It can do a fair amount of hauling, even when overloaded. Acceleration is lacking due to its small 2.2 4 cylinder engine. It doesn't handel very well either, but it's a truck, so, that's ok. | ||

ProsGreat get up and go for the Vortec engine. It's a manual, which I love to drive, and it's a long bed which is rare and I can fit tons of stuff in it. ConsNothing.

97' Chevy S10 — Work truck, daily driver. I have had to put some money into this truck but I love to drive it. I put a new clutch in and reservoir this summer. Past owner let it just keep leaking and it finally ate the dust. Newer electrical work, breaks and basics to get it running good. Primary Use: Commuting to work | ||

Proseconomy/affordability/gas mileage, utility. easy to drive, great view. great control Conslimit to 1 passenger, 2 passengers is very uncomfortable. kind of slow
35
There Is A Lot Of Things Better, But This Is Still Great For The Price — great and comfortable driving car. has almost no blind spots and goes where you want it with no problem. its not very fast at all and takes a bit to get up to speed but ince you get there it glides nice to save gas. once you hit any speed itll stay there with your foot off the gas(ofcourse if the road is flat). i really cant complain about it. its great for utility, not for passengers, but it works and its reliable. great mileage. Primary Use: Commuting to work | ||

Fun — Great little truck to fix up. Good gas mileage (if you drive it like a grannie) i've spent more money on cosmetics than mechanical repairs since i have owned it(10 years) The rear wheel drive is nice but wish it had a locked rear end Primary Use: Commuting to work | ||

ProsWhen you don't need a full size truck to haul stuff. ConsPoor gas mileage even for a V6.
25
Great All Around Truck. — After 160,000 miles, it still runs like new. The 4.3 liter V6 has good acceleration, no leaks, no weird noises, transmission doesn't slip. The body is in great shape. Very little rust, minor dents. I've had it since 2005 and the only major repair was a new fuel pump and gas tank. I've added fog lights, a cd player, window vents and LED tail lights. I wish it had four wheel drive for the winter and a/c for the summer but other than that its a great little truck. Primary Use: Utility (towing boats, transporting cargo, etc.) | ||
