oh yea, my dads 96 surburban has 110,000, which includes a 3000 mile road trip to and from flordia

the only problems with it are:
the 3 and 6 button on the radio dont light up
takes 20 minutes for the heater to get warm
the knob for the rear controlled ac broke off
and sometimes water leaks in from the trunkbed double doors

the 3 and 6 button on the radio dont light up
Figure out how to take it apart and change the bulbs

takes 20 minutes for the heater to get warm
somthings clogged, figure out if its the heater core or the lines, also be sure your thermostat is working

the knob for the rear controlled ac broke off
glue

and sometimes water leaks in from the trunkbed double doors

Chevy S-10s are uber reliable. My dad had a 1991. It was pushing 190k. He then gave it to my step brother who beat the hell out of it. It lasted for awhile, though (6 months, I think). If it can last that long with him, it can take anything else.

My 2001 S-10 is still running at 17500 miles.

My dad still has his first car, a 1966 Buick Skylark. It has jus over 500,000 miles on it.

Granted, its on it's second engine, but thats still pretty amazing.
