ok.. so ive been looking for a truck.. i was really looking for a extended cab s-10.. but they arent Too easy to find.. i like the 80's/early 90's bodies with the square headlights.. but im not too picky about it... anyway.... another idea hit me.. to get a reg cab and do a blow through with a camper shell.. so what do you guys think? get an ex cab and put the subs behind the seats as usual... or buy a reg cab and put a camper shell and cut the back and do a wall?

don't like trucks.
if you need a flatbed, buy an old el camino and throw in a 468" :)

Why put a camper on it and do a blowthrough? That's what SUVs were created for, or rather that's exactly what they
are 
They look better than a truck with a camper top, too.
I wouldn't get a truck unless I'm going to use it as one.

The worst thing about a truck, is how many more friends you will make...
Most of them will ask the same thing, "Can you help me move?"

Ext cab over reg cab
2.5 over 2.8
4.3 over 2.5
The 2.8's are a product of the devil, reframe from getting one unless you like spun bearings.
The 2.5's (iron duke) are good little motors. I've personally drove so many of these trucks its pathetic, and even though I laid down the terror they've always stayed together... The worst thing about these motors are their lack of power, honestly thats about it..
The 4.3's make good power stock and can be built up to be fairly fast without alot of money... These are my power-plant of choice :happy055: ... The worst part of these are the fuel pumps and valve seals...
Around here the s10 are cheap and plentiful, pm me if you are serious about getting one...
