My Car in the USA

People always ask me, which car I am driving on all my travels and how does this car looks like. That’s why I have added a couple of pictures on my web page. In 2000 I bought a stock S10 Blazer. In 2005 I added All Terrain Tires and since 2007 my S10 is eventually grown up. Read more in my 88 Chevy S10 BDS Lift Kit Installation. In 2010 I put in the V8 conversion radiator and replace the stock mechanic fan by an electrical one to get rid of the overheating problems.

Important Update: The trail in 2016 is the last trail with this truck. Unfortunately my mechanic in Warrendale, Pennsylvania, has screwed up my car so tremendously that it is almost impossible to get the truck back on the road with a reasonable amount of money.
