Used 2001 Chevrolet S-10 for Sale

My Chevy s-10 has been the most valuable purchase I've made over the past decade. The s-10 is one more versatile trucks, as it can be used for multiple purposes ranging from work truck to play truck. The LS version is possibly the most fuel efficient of the s-10's, sporting a 2.2 Liter engine that allows over 22 mpg on the highway. What I like about the 2001 model is how far it has evolved from the original 1982 model, which includes the addition of a spare tire, cruise control, and an integrated CD player. Having purchased my truck used, I would have expected more performance issues at this point, but there are really none to report. There is not much I do not like about my truck, however it does lack the horsepower of other compact trucks which is beneficial in certain situations.

I like the Chevy S-10 4X4 even though it gets poor gas mileage. It drives great off road, and you would be challenged to get yourself stuck in the mud. It seems to get a lot better gas mileage if you always stay under 55 miles per hour. Fifty-three miles per hour is the perfect cruise control setting for this truck when on the interstate. The truck is much higher off the ground than a regular Chevy S-10. When the truck came from the factory it had really big off road mudding tires on it that had very deep grooves in the tread. At highway speeds these tires will make a very loud noise. At interstate 70 mph speeds the noise with these tires is so loud that it can be hard to have a conversation inside the vehicle. I mostly solved this problem by replacing the giant off road tires with interstate touring tires to reduce the noise evil produced by the tires dramatically.

I purchased my 2001 Chevy S10 last year and have absolutely loved this little truck. It is a base model truck that's worth every penny. The interior is great. The floor material is made out of a high quality rubber and has withstood a great amount of abuse. Usually in cars I have owned in the past the area under my left foot wears through and leaves the metal floor panel exposed but this has held up. Chevy did a great job on the rest of the interior as well. Even after 200,000 miles, the seats are still in great condition and show no signs of wear and tear. The 2.2 Liter 4 cylinder in this little truck is bullet proof. I live in an area that gets a lot of snow so the undercarriage is exposed to a lot of salt throughout the winters, and after being on the road for almost 15 years still shows no signs of rust. The truck bed has withstood a great amount of punishment as I work in construction and is still in relatively good shape. All in all I am very impressed with all facets of this little S10.
