buying an 89 s10

[pimpedout97x 4]

well i found a couple different trucks around here, and i found one that i really like. its a 1989 s-10 standard cab, 4cyl, 5spd. i think there was one little ding on the hood, clear coat was faded off, but the actual color is for the most part uniform all around. its got a topper on it, vinyl bench seat that from when i looked at it, didnt look ripped or anything, dash i didnt see cracks or anything from heat.

he's asking $800 but i have $700 cash to offer him, im waiting for him to call me since he's been busy since i drove it (didnt offer him anything yet but he said he wont sell the truck since i want it)

its a very nice truck for an 89, drives nice (no power steering but i wouldnt have known if he didnt tell me, becuse its not hard at all to drive it) and no a/c but i wont worry about that right now. no power options.

basically its just a beater truck, will get decent gas mileage becuase its a small 4cyl manual tranny, and i cant fit nothing in my car at all. plenty times i wish i would have a small pickup, so im buying one.

and no, im not going nothing to it. all i want to put is a HU, and maybe 2 coax's or a cheaper component set (PG RSD's or something)

hopefully i can get ahold of the guy today to buy it

It'd certainly be safer driving that around on a regular basis than your other two vehicles, so I don't think that's such a bad idea at all.

lol the Mini is safe..

but with all the weight its slowly becoming a non-daily driver LOL

I would take that s-10 and make a straight-up boomer out of it. Older S-10

s like yours have been my choice for anything intensive and have always been easier and cheaper to fix, and tighten up given their simplicity and straightforward electrical systems.

I believe we tried to warn you of this.

You know you can't buy an S10 and not ghetto-fi it somehow.

I hope you don't plan on putting much weight in that thing, the 4cyl in that is about the definition of anemic.

[pimpedout97x 4]

the guy wont call me back, he promised not to sell it, i told him i had the money, and hes not answering my calls or texts..pisses me off becuase i wanted it.
