    I just bought a 2011 Black Tacoma SR5. This truck will replace my 1993 Chevy S-10 that I've been driving for 28 years. The S-10 has been an amazing truck, despite all of the abuse I've heaped on it. It's a sad day and I could actually shed a tear or two, but I'm excited about my 'new' Taco.

    Just ordered my tacomaworld.com sticker for the rear window!

    Welcome! Solid trucks! A buddy of mine actually helped build that generation of S10.

    Although the truck still drives and runs great, I need something I can drive longer distances and has more room. It has a head gasket leak, the AC doesn't work, and just wear and tear over 28 years.

    I suppose the head gasket is a pretty big deal lol. Although there's probably a ton of room to work on that engine! At least compared to today's cars.

    Welcome!

    The S10 is one of my favorite trucks and I love that body style from the mid 90s. Feel free to post some pictures

    Welcome to the forum Chris.

    I had a ‘93 GMC Sonoma, they are tough trucks.

    Still thinking about it.
    Welcome! We had a ‘97 Blazer in ‘99 and it was awesome. Wheeled the hell out of it. Then in 2018 I bought a low mileage ‘96 Jimmy and that thing was a heap. They ‘were’ good trucks but in my experience they don’t age well.
