Soooo, if 1/2 of the truck will be a GM, why not go with an S10?

I like American iron as much as anybody...but the good Lord didn't intend for them to be mix-and-match. I'm pretty sure it's in the bible. One of them long Old-Testimate books I think.

I own a K5 too, and a ford but I make sure to keep them parked far enough apart that they don't cross breed and stick me with some unholy frankenstein ******* truck.
