Show off your S-series miles hereTopDogg 01-13-2004, 03:28 PM I get a kick out of all the foreign fans saying an American car isnt worth jack over 100,000 miles. So lets here what your S10,S15, truck or Blazer/Jimmy has. My 1991 Jimmy 4x4 4.3 has 249,000 It just started to knock but I have no complaints. My 1992 S-10 4.3 has 146,000. It is a very strong runner. Stock with Edelbrock headers/Flowmaster muffler. Neither motor has been rebuilt. Both are TBI. I buy one owner cars just for that reason. Fox_Rocks 01-14-2004, 11:50 AM my truck below has had a bunch of performance engine work done to it, it currently has 282,000km on it, and i put the performace engine in at 250,000km. Nothing wrong with the engine, i just wanted a faster one ;) jshort 01-15-2004, 06:19 AM well I got a blazer with about 150k and falling apart but that tends to happen when you beat the tar out of it and a 97 truck with 149k on it and it get faster every year probly cuz I keep putting more in to it all I have ever owned is S10 6 total I didnt get rid of any of them with less then 175k on them and I still see my first blazer running around with the orignal motor more body rot and over 400k on it now thats a runner starfire 01-15-2004, 07:33 PM So I should feel fairly confident to buy a 94 S-15 Jimmy with 240,000 miles on it? Thanks, cobra1 01-18-2004, 05:31 AM 95 s-10 4.3 w/CPI @ 176,346 miles. still has original CPI unit it, which usually only lasts 100,000. mjohn 01-19-2004, 10:55 PM 93 GMC Jimmy 4.3 Wseries...with 134,000 fun filled miles and now getting a new CPI unit...how did you know? Kmaxhhi 01-20-2004, 09:16 AM 96 S-10LS 4.3L Vortac, 149K miles. Owned it since mid-98 when it had 19k miles. Never had any major problems. I live in the Southeastern US and we have very favorable weather, so, that may have some impact. BTW - just towed my 30 ft 6000lb boat with it last weekend. Wouldn't want to do that regularly, but it proves the ruggedness of this particular vehicle.... Regards, Kmaxhhi tom3 01-21-2004, 02:00 PM 91 S10 with the 2.8 V6 at 190,000 miles 93 S10 Blazer vortec 4.3 with 165,000 miles. Some repair on the Blazer ($1000+-), almost none on the truck, both running great (knock on wood). Wonder if the Colorado will perform like this? Jezzka 01-21-2004, 02:56 PM 1994 4.3L V6 Vortec, 170,000 miles on it and still running great! I have a few minor (*knock on wood*) issues with it, but up til about 3,000 miles on it EVERYTHING was factory. My truck took a beating from the prevous owner, and I always run mine down! Both of my brothers love their Hondas. The one may be older than mine, by about 8 years, but has less miles on it and it runs like crap. Infact, right now it is not running at all. Ha-Ha! :lol2: speedyvic 01-30-2004, 04:43 AM My 85 S-10 2.8 has only 75,000 miles on it! Of course it could have something to do with the broken speedometer :screwy: X-10 02-01-2004, 11:08 PM I have an '83 S-10 with 218,000 miles on it. It has never been rebuilt but it still runs good. divingduckman 02-06-2004, 05:28 AM 97 blazer with 159000 on it and still running like my 02 s-10 marchi1 02-06-2004, 12:08 PM I had my 2001 for three years and ran 76K in that time.

I have a '94 S10 4x4 4.3 TBI automatic std cab/long bed. It has 171000 miles today, and is running very well. Very reliable truck. It is on its second battery, fuel pump, fuel tank, EGR valve, spark plugs, ignition wires and distributor rotor/cap. Otherwise mechanically it is original. electsmurf 03-03-2004, 09:04 AM I have an '89 blazer 4x4, 4.3l with 241,000 on odo. estimate it has over 250,000. it ran a set of 31's for about 6 years with a lot of road(on/off) time Jimmiz71 03-05-2004, 11:54 AM I sold my 87' blazer Tahoe w/172,000 miles in November and I still see it around now and then, Its on its second transmission but it goes to show what TLC and aome routine maintence can do for your Auto. The only reason I sold it was because I bought a Silverado Z71 at a price I couldnt refuse, anyways just figured i'd share my story.. DrRockin 03-07-2004, 01:55 AM ok, I just had to post mine. I have a 91 S10 Extcab with 267225 on it Still everything stock, Bed is rusting out, currently tring to find info on bodywork and replacing the column that got smashed when she was stolen.

I do my own maintenance and have certainly replaced many parts, but it is the original motor. I too am impressed with the miles I have gotten out of it.

It is a hand me "up" it was my kid brothers first car he got it in Highschool (somewhere before he graduated probably 1996???) and drove the tar out of it before getting married and a real job lol...He bought a new F-150 last year and couldn't get anything in on a trade in so since he was just junking it, I took it off his hands as a second car. 135+k and still starts without hesitation on the first crank!! Pulled the ceiling liner out, rewired the speakers, the interior lights don't work and the bed is rustin out :iceslolan but still runs like a dream and sounds good too! I wish my 01 impala was as reliable but at least now I think I have it fixed up too. AW :grinno: Howielong 04-22-2004, 04:18 PM 1987 S-10 with 120K+ miles and is a bitch. Doing burnouts is fun in it. No radio. jackdaniels-10 04-28-2004, 11:17 AM 94 S-10 2.2L 2WD, auto tranny with 133k on it, this bad boy sat out and took the weathers abuse without driving for 2 years, started driving it a month ago and have only had to replace some fuses, air filter and fluid, thats power right there, and it only gonna get better as i start adding some performance parts. and when this truck goes if ever im buyin another s-10 www451oa 04-30-2004, 10:19 PM I have a 94 S10 with a baby 107K miles on it. I bought it in 98 with 28K on it. It runs great. I just put in Polygraphite Sway bar Bushings. I love them. No real work/problems, other than routine maintence. I'm just starting to get minor rust on the bottom of my driver side door. I'll clean it up and I should be good. kmarkgl 05-01-2004, 10:09 AM I have a 94 Blazer S10 with 199,000 miles on the clock. I ran the hell out of it which is probably why it spun a rod bearing. The engine is currently at the machine shop getting bored and honed. Looking for another 200,000+ when I get it back together. Too many performance parts to list. If it can be bolted on or welded on I have it. No NOS though. I am figureing that I am making about 290+ hp. This thing rocks and loves tearing up kids in imports. hakogen 05-01-2004, 04:29 PM I used to run from the Rhode Island / Massachusetts border to Boston, MA every day in my 01 2.2. I put 70k on it in 18 months. Still runs like it's off the dealer's lot... brutass 05-07-2004, 02:12 PM My 92' 2.5 liter 2wd S-10 has 195,000 and going for the big 200,000 mark. At 78,000, I had to have a valve and rocker arm replaced. Ran with a terrible miss for years trying to figure it out and then found I had a small slit in a vaccum hose. Runs better now than I ever remember. No engine mods other than the valve work. The only thing I have found wrong is that for some reason about every 50K or so, I have to replace the ignition module. After paying for it the first time, I now keep one behind the seat as well as the 5.5 metric socket to change it. WileECoyote 05-09-2004, 02:40 PM Got a 91 S-10 Blazer 4.3 4X4.

I am hoping my oil pump is gone. I was on my way in to work, when the Oil Pressure dropped to zero. Immediately the banging began and luckily I was near family so I parked it. I checked it and it appears to be clear, just really low on oil. Once I get it cleaned an put back to gether hopefully I can roll off a few more miles. vballfun 07-26-2004, 10:04 AM 1995 s-10 blazer 4x4 4.3L with 180,000 and counting have had a few probs but nothin major... however..
