I had a 1992 Silverado with 299,000 miles and I sold it for 2,500 dollars... pretty impressive truck.

I have a 1983 Chevy S-10 4X4 with a 2.8 that has 323, 467 miles i bought it from a contractor.

[tempestcar]

226,228 it pretty good still but still burns a littel oil!!!

[Bobandbadger]

Odometer reads 23,427 and the contractor i bought truck from said its all ready rolled over three times. So i am going on what he is saying. The engine runs pretty good it uses about 1 quart of oil between changes.

1983 S10 Blazer 4wd Tahoe = about 150,000 miles I think, had to change the speedo yrs ago.

Bought in 2000. Before that was tranny rebuild and engine rebuild.

I've since replaced the rear end, tranny mounts, gas tank and pickup, gas line, brake lines, oil pump, gas pump, brakes master cylinder, engine mounts, alternator, starter motor, cab fan blower motor, vacuum connector atop transfer case, battery, full exhaust system and convertor, shoes and pads ofcourse.

Everything works great. Starts fine even in -30c.

I found it definitely prefers full synthetic 5w30 oil. This is because it stopped burning oil and the level stopped dropping.

Someone here long ago mentioned it had to do with fresh esters from the synthetic, helping the valve guide and piston seals.

87 s-10 2.5L 4-speed standard cab 185,645 miles on it..sat for almost 5 years b4 i bought it and it cranked right up after putting a new transmission in it...no rust spots except in the bed

I've put one alternator on mine, replaced heater hose, radiator hose, radiator, 1 water pump. 2 sets of front brakes, 2 heater & air condition blowers, 2 air conditions pumps, 3 batteries, 4 sets of tires, 2 fuel pumps, fuel injectors, Did about $150.00 front end work at about 137,000 to 140,000 miles, front end has been lined up 2 times, 1 EGR valve. Replaced the ABS brakes box that is under the hood with one from a junkyard, 2 months later it did the same thing as my old one, I forget the name for that thing but they cost about $1,500.00, the top bleed plunger on the back side would not stay in, I put a metal band over it where it would not come out when I hit my brakes and let the brake pedal go to the floor.

At present time I've got a lifter that sticks after it sets over night, after starting it us and it get warmed up a bit, it loosens and runs just great. I've changed my oil and used a quart of Rislone, I'll see how this turns out.

All in all its been a great ride, never had to add a drop of oil, just regular oil changes & such. I feel my problems have been few, we bought a Jeep Cherokee Laredo new in 02, now both the wife and I wish we had bought another new S-10 Blazer.
