ya it needs a few appearance items. I wanna get some TTII's on it. but they cant be wider than 8" on the front. so i was thinking 245's on the front 275's on the back. only if i found a really cheap set of rims/tires.
Gotta drop it 2". Tint the windows. And maybe a tonneau cover.

only cost me about 11 bucks to drive 75 miles. going 80mph though (3200rpm)
sure i coulda done better if i had slowed it down some and cruzed.
gonna do a small tune upair filter, fuel filter, trans/engine oil change, Plugs and wires.)
then we'll see what im getting after that.

Thats a nice truck for the price and year, Only thing about the 4 banger, Those things are absolute DOGS! They are slower than just about anything on the road. If it was stick that would of helped. A geo metro can probly outrun one of those, but for gas prices, It will help. You should see high 20's MPG out of it. Im not sure but those trucks had issues with the head gasket, When I used to work for Chevy.

But even if i got the 4.3L V6 i still wouldn't have been able to tow anything i would actually wanna tow. (4300lbs Impala SS)
Not trying to go fast. Just needed to be able to do 3 things... get good MPG's, Fit 2 kids in the back, and be able to fit any car part in the bed. (hood/motor/trans/ect..)
