Ok...Want some opinions...
Been thinkin 'bout tradin in the truck for a 4x4...Not sure what to get though...I've narrowed down what I want to get to the following:
S10 4x4 w/ ZR2 package
Toyota Tacoma TRD 4x4
Chevy Avalanche

If I go with one of the smaller trucks, I'm gonna pull the engine out and stick in a 383 stroker eventually...
So what would you guys go with???

well the avalanche can come with a 496 v8 but then theres the fact that you can hardly afford a fuel pump so thats a no and it's mad eof plastic

the s10 well in a 4x4 i doubt those transfer cases and awles would stand up to a 383 so either get a fullsize or stick with a freking 6 or 4 banger or whatever the hell they come with

and trhe toyota well it is a toyota no offense lethal

I dunno if I can addord a fuel pump or not...If I knew what the fuck addord meant, I'd be able to properly answer that...
The avalanche isn't made of plastic, ya moron. There IS metal under the plastic body parts...
And the toy's are cool, so back off! lol

How about a regular Chevy fullsize, they come with nice V8's that you can build on. Do you have to worry about smogs in your state? A engine swap could turn into a emission nightmare, but if you know the right people you can get around it.
Or an early model truck without the smog worries. Instead of spending $25-30,000 on a new truck and then putting another $5-8,000 into it, find a old one and dump that hard earned cash into it, you may have better results.

hahaha. I live in colorado, and they SAY that there is strict 'state-wide smog enforcement' and there is in parts of the state but not here. Lot of the muscle cars here run open header...And a friend just talked me into thinkin about another alternative earlier...Keep the S10 and stick a 383 stroker in it, and make it a racer, instead of a 4x4 demon. lol...Gotta say...I'm sorely tempted to...

geee i've told you to do that many many times buy you wanted to make it a rice truck **cough cough** i mean "show truck"

GET AN FSJ!!!
If you want a 383, FSJ's can take 360's, 390s and even come with the 401. the 360 and especially the 401 are torque monsters. Really beefy trannys and t-cases as well.

There's a LOT of full-size-jeepers in CO, and they have a huge FSJ invasion at Ouray every year.
If you want a 4x4......."There's only one!"

Guess your in a more rural area, they have different test here for rural places but it still a pain in the ass, I have three cars that are before '73, so i can do mods without worries.
Do you also have to deal with that white stuff you call snow? I could see the need for the 4X4, but the 383 in the S-10 sounds like more fun.

Yeah...We have snow here...Lots...We also have that not-so-fun stuff called black ice...Only 2-3 months outta the year, though...

well then theres only one solution power and traction get an older chevy truck get a bigblock put a few grand into the block with 4:56 gears 38inch boggers d 60 front and rear.....and get your boggers siped or they'll suck on ice but still hold up the good snow quality you'd also need

ummmm...Also need what?

i dunno i forgot i clicked submit accidentally and forgot what i was gonna say

what do you wanna do with it? Off-road, mud, sand, street, race?

That's the problem...I recently got into off-roadin...But I still want a street racer...And I don't have the money to have 2 seperate vehicles...So now I'm stuck between makin the s10 a badass street racin truck, or sellin it and gettin a 4x4...i'm so confused. lol.

Buy a Honda
