What's New: The 1999
model year brings a sporty new package for the Chevrolet S10
Pickup, aptly named the Xtreme.
With added ground effects and a lowered suspension,
Chevrolet is hoping to appeal
to customers who had planned on customizing their new pickup
after purchase.
History: Introduced in
1982 as one of the first compact pickup trucks from a domestic
manufacturer, the current S10
Pickup is only the second generation of this popular vehicle,
which was redesigned in 1994.
A third door on extended-cab modelsóproviding direct access
to the cab's rear seating/cargo
areaóbecame available in 1996. Last year, S10's front and rear
ends were restyled, and a passenger
airbag with a passenger-side deactivation switch was
added. Model
years: 1988-93, 94-98
Trim Details: The 1999
Chevrolet S10 Pickup is available in ten trims: Short Bed base and
LS; Long Bed base and LS; and
LS Extended Cab each with either 2WD or 4WD. Safety

an anti-lock brake system (ABS) and daytime running lights. A
2.2-liter 4-cylinder engine
