Everything was XTREME in the early 2000s, including this S-10 truck and the Blazer. Lowered, sport suspension, killer wheels, ground effects, perfect for a couple subs in the back... the Xtreme trucks were the envy of everyone around you. Shawn watches the channel and told me I could have his old one for FREE if I went and pulled it out. I was in immediately thinking I'd be able to toss in a new 4.3 and relieve the good ol' days. It turns out this truck is what's left of a 2000 Chevy S-10 Xtreme, more of an S-10 mild.

Nice score! I got a "free" 1987 S10 when I was 17 back in the early 2000s. Was my cousins truck, someone stole the wheels off it while it was in the parking lot at the movie theater. He's not exactly the brightest peanut in the turd so he just left the truck sitting there for several weeks, obviously management wasn't too thrilled about it and the cops eventually showed up at his mom's house asking questions since it was in her name. She signed the title over to me, I paid the $35 or whatever it was back then to transfer it over. Luckily I lived next door to a very sweet old lady who was basically my grandma, she let me put her Oldsmobile bravada on jackstands for an afternoon so I could borrow her wheels to drive my new shitbox home.

I use to have a S10 Extreme, black, single cab, 4.3 V6 with a manual transmission, it was a pretty quick truck back in it's day. Bought it from a chevy dealership in California right off the 10 freeway, I believe in Ontario, right off the showroom floor back in 1999. I miss that truck, had to sell it in 2003 because it wasn't practical for a family vehicle being only a 2 seater and me and my wife were starting our family at that time. Brings back memories watching this video.

Is it a factory thing? What kind of engine is in it?" and a few "Hey man, that's a cool little truck!" etc. Spend the time and money to bring it back from the grave. They're not all that rare but as the years go by they continue to be more and more so. I've not lost a head gasket in mine but mine's not abused, it's been properly maintained by the mfg recommends. The mileage is 125K and I for sure enjoy owning it.
