I WOULD LIKE TO INTRODUCE MY MYSELF AND MY TRUCKS AND TELL YOU ABOUT MYSELF.
I CURRENTLY OWN 5 S10s 1 LUV 1 OLD-SCHOOL HONDA HATCH AND 1 PORSCHE 944.
I BOUGHT MY FIRST TRUCK (RED X-CAB S10) WITH MY OWN MONEY IN 2010 WHEN I WAS 16 AND HAVE HAD MANY VEHICLES SINCE THEN BUT IT HAS ALWAYS BE A CONSTANT AND HAS NEVER FAILED ME EVEN UNDER ABUSE. IVE OWNED 9 S10s (5 OF WHICH I STILL OWN) 1 MAZDA B2200 1 MERCEDES TURBO DIESEL SEDAN JUST TO NAME SOME.
I DECIDED THAT BUYING AND WORKING ON DEAD VEHICLES WAS BETTER THAN BECOMING A STATISTICAL DEGENERATE LIKE MANY OF MY GENERATION SO I HAVE EXPERIENCED MANY MAKES AND MODELS OVER THE PAST FEW YEARS.
I THOROUGHLY ENJOY WORKING ON VEHICLES AND I HAVE RECENTLY ACQUIRED THE 1980 LUV 4X4 THAT I HAVE SEARCHED FOR FOR ALMOST 4 YEARS NOW. ITS A BLACK MIKADO WITH TRI COLOR DECALS FACTORY A/C AND BUCKET SEATS.
I DONT NORMALLY JOIN FORUMS BECAUSE IT REMINDS ME OF HIGH SCHOOL BICKERING AND IGNORANT ARGUMENTS BUT THIS FORUM SEEMS VERY INFORMATIVE AND VERY NEUTRAL. I AM EXCITED TO ABLE TO JOIN A FORUM THAT IS FULL OF PEOPLE THAT GENUINELY WANT TO HELP EACH OTHER WITHOUT ALL THE B.S.

THANKS FOR ALL YOUR FUTURE HELP AND INFO
JORDAN MORRIS

Just who are you calling 'informative and neutral'?? We don't take kindly to S-10' enthusiasts 'round here >:(

Nah, just kidding. Welcome to the forum. Although you might not find the same enthusiasm for the LUV's younger cousin, people on here are quite helpful.

It sounds like you've got one of my dream trucks in that black 4x4 of yours. If you get a chance, include a few pics of it. I'd love to see a good shot of those decals. Are they the orange/brown 4x4 ones that came on black trucks?

Thanks for the welcome!
Here's a few more pics. I was going to upload several pics but found out I could only add 3 per post. Does that change as I mature into the forum or do I have to use photo bucket?

File comment: Here's the Luv! It's all original minus one wheel and it has all the factory center caps. Needs a propshaft and an a/c compressor as both are missing but everything else is complete but needs "Luv" as it hasn't been tagged since 92. zero rust! It's been a Texas cotton gin farm truck it's whole life.

Yes, welcome to the site. Nice collection you have. You must have a big yard. :D
I forget why the site is set up that way, but yes, only 3 pics per post. :smt017

Nice collection. I will say you put a lot of faith in those trailer wheels.

Sadly I live in town and the yard is small. I rent a couple of open rv spaces and can put several cars in each.

Thank you and yeah my brother says the same thing and always tells me a blowout is right around the corner. I have put a lot of faith in those old dry tires but they've held up. they are ten ply on 10" wheels. Kinda like souped up golf cart tires. I've hauled several cars on that trailer and lots of other heavy things and it hold up pretty good. It used to be a popup camper that I bought for 100 dollars so I can't complain. I bought a 22 ft tandem trailer to put a new floor and dove tail it to make a car hauler but haven't had time to finish it.
