I even pulled a couple of e30's around with both s-10 and Colorado those are NOT experiences I would want to repeat in and around traffic again........
Sure not everyone NEEDs a full size or a HD full size and thats fine I totally get that different strokes for different needs, I used to have both for a long time, a pulling/farm truck and a Work beater for fuel economy (454's w/ 4:10 gear sets are THIRSTY yet very consistent loaded down heavy or empty was the same 7ish mpg ) that could haul some little shit. But dont fool your self that because you have a open cargo space behind a small occupant compartment that you have something that is capable of much more than what you can do with a E30 IX or Subaru, off improved roads or a Camry or civic on the pavement in a pinch as well.
