Had one for a short time . Son rolled it.

It was nice.

The early ones back in the 80's reminded me of a IH Scout.

I had one that was a great vehicle, just a little too heavy for the V-6 engine. I blew it up trying to pull a trailer up the mountain between Guntersville and Arab. I found out the hard way the S-10 motor was not a direct swap. The engine were the same except the starters were on the opposite sides. Ended up having to have mine rebuilt.

They are dependable. We had about 5 on the farm up until this year. We still have 2 that are used everyday. Both diesel motors too

bought a 2000 4x4 new. wife drove it 9 years and i got her something new and used it as my hunting/kick around vehicle. they are Japanese dependable except the auto transmission is a GM transmission. that's the weak link. had 285 buckshot mudders on mine and it would go about anywhere.
