Mine has 180,000 on it, and gets nice milage if I keep my foot out of it, coast to stop lights, etc...
I would second this choice. Bought a new one in 2000 withthe stated intentions of driving it till he doors fall off.381k later they did on drivers. Very few problems. 4 banger Vortec engine is a sweet machine. Plus utility of pickup. Only options i purchase was rear bumper.Load the back with weight and it got around just ss well as full sized 4X4 in snow
