A Mediokre At Best Little Truck — With enough blankets in the bed of the truck, you could actually lay down and sleep if you needed to, and it never did leave me stranded anywhere, but almost several times. horrible mileage & runningness, pretty ugly truck too really lol Pros: Enough room in the bed for things & it had AC Cons: ran horrible, needed more power and acceleration, needs another gear for fwy driving, needs to get better mileage, needed to idle & run better & stop sqealing |

I Loved This Truck — I drove all over the northeast with this truck to concerts & football games. It never let me down and never left me stranded. I loved the cloth bench seat & the 8 ft bed. It had a slider rear window & a drop-down cargo light in the cab. Plenty of room to sleep comfortably in the cab on late nite trips home to NY from Philadelphia....ALOT. Primary Use: Commuting to work Pros: it never let me down, or left me stranded. Steel bumpers, NO plastic.... Cons: none - only thing that sucks is I never should have sold it.... |

Sturdy Lil Pickup — I loved this little truck!! It was soo much fun. Very sturdy! IT was 4X4 and could handle anything. When parts DID break it is extremely expensive to fix. It was really cute. It was somewhat comfortable to drive. Good Truck! The interior was ugly but it WAS an 89 Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) Pros: Very reliable Cons: Ugly interior |
