Just an S10, nothing special

LordTauk · 01-29-2006, 06:41 PM

I pretty much lurk around here more than I post, however.. figured I'd post a picture of my S10. Everything is pretty much stock, and used as my daily driver. I don't have any real future plans for it, if anything, I'd do a small body lift with all supporting mods if necessary, seen a few of them floating around. Anyway, not really much to it, but I'd love to hear some comments.

Specs/Mods:
-2000 4x4 S10, 262ci V6, close to 38,000 miles
-Custom dual exhaust
-235/75/15 BFG All Terrains
-Torsion bars cranked
-Autometer Z-series 2-1/16'' Vacuum gauge (had an extra gauge laying around, bought a pod for an S10 and used it)

nothing like nice black paint on strait panels

oh, only 38000 miles, must be nice

LordTauk · 01-29-2006, 09:19 PM

Well.. unfortunately Im also a Blue Oval guy. I have an 01 Lightning that's a spring/summer/early fall weekend and sometimes a weekday driver and that most of my actual money for car stuff goes to, sorry guys. I hope im not banished from here because of that.

Anyway, the S10 I've had a few years now, it's been a good truck.

I know this is in the wrong forum, but here's an Exhaust clip. There's an annoying ticking/beeping sound, it's my camera trying to focus when it's dark outside.

Nothing wrong with being a blue oval guy, especially not when you own a lightning. Any pics of the lightning?

crazy91s10 · 01-29-2006, 10:28 PM

nice man.

s10stunna · 01-30-2006, 12:05 AM

Looks tight, man. Good luck w/ future mods.

fscott20 · 01-30-2006, 12:15 AM

Nice and clean. Any pics of the Lightning?

LordTauk · 01-30-2006, 11:30 AM

Yeah, this weekend I'll snap some pics of the Lightning.

Thanks for the comments.

crazy91s10 · 01-30-2006, 01:24 PM

personally i would sell the lightning simply cuz its a ford. and use that money to put a solid axle and some 35s under the s10!

but thats just me.

groundd · 01-30-2006, 01:31 PM

looks good and clean

blazer4.3 · 01-30-2006, 09:59 PM

Exhaust sounds good, what kind is it and where'd u get it.

LordTauk · 01-31-2006, 06:57 PM

Exhaust was a custom catback job done at a small local exhaust shop, they're pretty good at their work. I think it was a little over 300 bucks total, pretty good deal I thought. I've had that exhaust for almost 3 years, sorry I don't remember exact details.

v8lonoma · 01-31-2006, 08:56 PM

looks good.

cwd240z · 01-31-2006, 10:38 PM

Really low mileage for a 2000 model, my 00 had 127k when I bought it last summer.

I have nothing against ford. I like the later year ford trucks especially the lightning. I also like the mustangs but I also like LT1 and LS1 camaros and firebirds a little bit more cuz you over 300 horsepower and still 18 mpg in town and 28 on the highway, you just can beat that. If I could buy a lightning I would especially since they stopped makin em.

sdime98 · 02-02-2006, 12:57 PM

nice truck man

LordTauk · 02-05-2006, 03:51 PM

Alrighty, as requested, here are three pictures of my Lightning, took em' today.

Nice trucks man! If I had the money I'd own a Lightning too.

LordTauk · 02-05-2006, 05:09 PM

I needed to move the L around in the carport, so I took a video of the exhaust. There's a small screech sound when I throw it in reverse, it's my breaks. They've been sitting since late Oct, got a nice covering of surface rust on the rotors. Asside from letting it run for awhile every weekend or so, I've only driven that truck about 5 miles since I've been "winter stored" it.

About 41 degrees today where I live in Maryland, nice enough day to start up the truck. This may take a little while to load, sorry it's Quicktime.
