Bad Choice!

by DharmaJairam
Sep 10 '00 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 1.0 Recommended: No 

Pros: good lucking truck
Cons: Everything else! weak engine and crappy manufacturing.

I leased an S-10 in 1999. I have a 2wd, extra-cab (w/third door), automatic trans, and a weak 4cyl. engine. Besides the fairly good deal I got on the lease, I think I made one of the biggest MISTAKES of my life. I had a Toyota Tacoma before this and...

by toxictwinkies
Oct 26 '06 - Updated Mar 06 '07 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 1.0 Recommended: No 

Pros: Handling, Look?, the ability to haul a couch, and body/frame strength... not much else
Cons: V4, gas mileage, no tow capabilities, the fact that it's held together with hot glue
The Bottom Line: NOT Recommended, in the shop at LEAST twice a month, more rattles than anything i've ever riddin in, and poor reliability.

Pros: great little truck. like 4x4
Cons: third door handle broken 4 times. reclining handle twice lost heat and radio
The Bottom Line: for the price and trouble not worth the buy.

I bought my Chevy s10 zr2 brand new and I had problems right off the bat. While under warranty ALL the weather stripping started to peel off so the Dealership replaced it. The truck comes with a third door with a side handle (must open driver door ...

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 3.0 Recommended: No 

Pros: Sporty, Dependable
Cons: Bumpy, Weak Options Package

O.K. I can't honestly say that I am lucky enough to own one of these puppies. I do however know a couple of owners of the 1999 Chevrolet S-10. Being labeled as a passenger I have my duties. Most important is quality assurance. I can't do a...

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 3.0 Recommended: No 

Pros: Comfortable and good looking
Cons: Wimpy Engine and Weak Paint

I purchased a 1999 S-10 with a 4 cylinder engine. Thought this was a good move because I need to be able to carry loads and get good gas mileage at the same time. Turns out the 4 cylinder was a big mistake. It has absolutely no power what so ever....

So Far, So Good!

by AxemanAZ
Oct 05 '00 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 4.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Good Looks, Sturdy, Reliable, Comfy
Cons: slow

The way I ended up with my black '99 S-10 is basically they treated me well at the dealership - that is rare, and I wanted to reward them, as well as show some faith in American craftsmanship. The guy that sold me the truck said he was an implant from a...

S-10 - Whatever You Want It To Be

by lowdog420
Jun 27 '01 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 4.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Comfortable seats, sporty look, suprisingly smooth ride for a truck
Cons: 4 cylinder a little underpowered.
The Bottom Line: I recommend the chevy s-10 to anyone in search of a low maintenance light duty pick up.

I have always wanted a pickup since I was a little kid. Something about the higher ride, and the whole tough car attitude a truck can give off. Now my S-10 is not by any means that tough of a truck with it's 2200 vortec 4-cylinder engine, however as...

Good Truck

by M.Evans
Dec 13 '99 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 4.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: no
Cons: no

I believe that Chevy S-10 is a good truck for someone that wants just a regular nice pick-up. They aren't too good in the winter though.With rear wheel drive it makes them very easy to wreck. So if you were to get an S-10 I would suggest the 4 wheel...

Dec 12 '99 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 4.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: great motor
Cons: not much leg room

We bought our 1999 S-10 vehicle, because we wanted a new vehicle with a cheap price, with the capability of hauling some small things around. We got a simple s-10, straight shift, and bench seat. It is easy to shift and great on gas. However, there is...

Not great, but not bad

by shepherdsheart
Jan 12 '00 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 4.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: great sporty appeal
Cons: needs more room on the inside

I purchased a 1999 Chevy S-10 XCAB within the last year. So far it has delivered good dependable service. Although it seems to be a little smaller inside that other small pickups I've owned, it is sufficient to meet the needs. This particular S-10 has...

by rahoyme
Jan 20 '00 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 4.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Price! Price! Price!
Cons: Extended cab for extra space only; not for people!

I wasn't really looking to purchase or lease a new vehicle until I drove
past my local Chevy dealer and saw a lineup of about a dozen new S-10
pickups. All were 2 wheel drive, 4 cylinder, 5 speed models, but they
were LS models with...
