i sold my ozark and i now need to by a truck. I was thinking of a compact truck 4x2 4cyl 5spd, i was wondering what was the best one between 1998-2003.
i really like s-10s but i would like to hear what some of u like. thanks

 

Don't know about the newer ones, but my 95 Ranger is still running strong. 175,000 miles, 1 new clutch and a new timing belt were the major expenses other than tires, tune ups and oil. My friends keep asking when I'm going to tade it it, but there's nothing wrong with it, so I keep on driving.

 

I doubt you could go wrong with any of the smaller p/u's. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img] Unless you get a lemon.

 

4-cylinder? P U is right, unless it's a tacoma. That 2.7 has some spunk!

 

 

ok well i found a 2000, 4cyl,5spd,4x2, S-10 with 60022 miles and has A/C,and bed liner, only thing is that it sat over winter and battery died.
i am going to look at it tomorrow or friday and the price is $5500 or BO

 

 

I know you said 98-03 but I have a 94 Toyota that has treated me pretty well.It has the 22 RE/4X4/4CYL/5 SPD/2.4 L.It's been a good truck 126,000 miles.It has went through one starter/radiator.The radiator sides are made of plastic,not a great design IMO.The timing set will take a dump at 100,000 like clock work.

 

meh i cant stand 4 cyl. ne more..my 95 s10 is alright til u try to run it..4 cyl. 175k mi. 5 spd...putting a 4.3l v-6 in it this summer.. but i guess it'll do alright..just dont try to tackle hills with it and ur quad.

 

well i found a this and i going to look at it after work
