is it that almost every single person that owns an s-10, and is into modifying cars, does the same exact thing?
gosh.. have some originality people. cardomain.com has 3,099 98-02 s10's and i think about 7,500 all together. its safe to assume that 95% of those are dropped/bagged.
thats really

.
edit: i thought i'd add.. if i do get an s10.. i'm going to be doign a system, nice bed liner, a bedcover, tint, alarm, LEDs, debadging, and possibly rims... and then a small drop if theres more gap then i like
but i really don't want an s-10 if i can get a dakota or f150.
as a matter of fact, if i get an s-10, i'm going to hunt down an s-10 xtreme if possible.

Don't get an extreme, its way to easy to rip the ground effects off. I would get one with the extreme suspencion package. They sit about 2 inches lower than a regular S10, and handle pretty well.
It is funny you said that (about they all look the same) When I did mine, it was the only one like it in tulsa. 6 months later, there was 3 more that were almost the exact same.

i think with any vehicle there is a "core" of modifications that have to be done to one extent or another......

I suggest a 1991 S15 Syclone
that baby has the 4.3L Turbo and all wheel drive, currently dropped and faster than a corvette 0-60. It is a true low 13sec pickup. 0-60 in 4.8sec...IN THE RAIN!!!

Syclones and Typhoons are awesome lil beasts... not so easy to find anymore though.
