Docwheelhorse 2,559 #1 Posted October 21, 2017 Hello all, I was at my boat club... friends diesel 1 ton dually broke a u joint half way up launch ramp. Nobody around but me and my 2wd 2.2 liter 4 cylinder auto. We blocked wheels on trailer and got his truck out of way... hooked up S10 and without even breaking sweat my Chevy got it up ramp and to safety. You guys always say if there arent pics it never happened! So..... Tony 7 1 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WVHillbilly520H 10,369 #3 Posted October 21, 2017 I still miss my '95 2.2 5spd I special ordered from the factory it was blue but after many deer involved accidents, it was repainted and customized a bit, but it served me well for 10+ years and 250k+ miles, Jeff. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elcamino/wheelhorse 8,945 #4 Posted October 21, 2017 S-10 's are nice trucks , my son had a 4x4 with the V 6 and my brother has a S-10 with the V 6 and auto that he picked up for $400.00 , put tires and shocks on it and has been driving it for the last 5 years with no problems. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Docwheelhorse 2,559 #5 Posted October 22, 2017 Okay, Okay... I feel bad... look in pic... you can see trailer jack down. I was leaving club and just backed up and took quick pic. Boat and trailer is 19,000.... theres no chance in heck an S10 wouldnt poop itself silly if it even THOUGHT about moving it. Friends 1 ton dually Silverado Duramax pulled it in lo range no problem. It has to sit there overnight till his over width permits are legal tomorrow morning. Its 35' x 14' Sorry fellas 🤣🤣🤣 Tony And yes S10s are great little rides whether mini pickup or Blazer. I love the things and have had probably 6 or 7 Tony 3 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ed Kennell 35,146 #6 Posted October 22, 2017 (edited) Remind me to never trust a Doctor again. You got me! He probably as 3/4 Ton on the hitch that would squat the S-10. Edited October 22, 2017 by Ed Kennell Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
squonk 38,570 #7 Posted October 22, 2017 An older S-10 with a 4.3 would have yanked that boat off the trailer! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
