I'm betting it isn't TCB approved! ;)

I've been thinking it needs to go away for awhile now you may be surprised.
Well it rides rough and doesn't get the greatest gas mileage. "I ain't got no time for that!"
Subaru Baja, a modern El Camino
I drove a 90, 99 and 03 Rangers for a period of 16 years, all with a V6. The 99 rode terrible compared to the other two. They all three were great trucks with few issues.
My daily driver is an S10, my project truck is an S10. I bought a new 95 ext cab, 99 Xtreme, and 02 crew cab. I also have owned a total of 14. if you need any s10 info let me know. I have bins of spare parts, lots of info and have run s10 websites/message boards for years. Easy to work on, cheap to get parts for and maintain. Comfortable and reliable. I get 19mpg average in my 4.3 v6 auto ext cab.
My daily 99 Sonoma converted to s10 with cyber gray metallic color change.

American mini-pickup? Blech! You're better than that, POS. Borrow JJ's for a week, you'll change your mind. 1984 Toyota would be better.
For $4K you can get a nice full-size. Its not like the S10/Rangers actually get more than a couple mpg better mileage. Blech!
If you want a rough ride and crappy mileage, you can borrow my 95 Wrangler. At least it looks cool and has a TCB-approved useless-in-the-city (other than removing shrubs) winch!
I've prolly got less than $3K in my 2000 F150. Runs great, V8, king cab, cold A/C. Come to Garland and troll the Fiesta parking lot for similar deals...
I had a full size track and it didn't fit in my garage, took up a ton if space on my driveway, cost more to repair and got 2 mph worse than my nice, inexpensive, easy to park compact truck.
Just saying everyone has different wants and needs.

Thanks guys all good stuff!
I'd like to stick with a small truck so I can wedge it in the Warehouse here at the World Headquarters. With the 'lac already in the warehouse there is no chance of sticking a full sized truck in the space available.
But I do have space for a Miata and then a baby truck when the Miata is out and about. We have found if we leave anything of value outside overnight chances are good it would only be a memory by the next day. ::Rant::

It's not an s10, but this might work for you. You'd look good in it!

So I had a emergency house maintenance project yesterday and the only way I could get the equipment from Home Depot Rental to my house was to use my Miata and the tire trailer..... Depot Kid would not help me load the trailer at first because he didn't think the car and trailer combo was a safe. It worked but there has to be a better way!
Suddenly this search for a truck is back online....
I think you need to find one of these... :burnrubr:
