Re: (Might Purchase) **2001 Chevy S-10** (Any Feedback?)

I have never driven one of the 4-banger/automatic S-10s, but I had a 97 S10-extended cab 4 banger/5 speed and it was a great commute vehicle. No power, but it is all flat around here and it got good mileage and I had a big "trunk" to haul things for the house.

I am not sure how powerful or how much that automatic would suck out of that little 2.2 though.

105K miles (60K on new engine)...........says it all for me!!!!!
And yes......5 speed would be the ONLY way to even think about buying one....
