You’re right on target… I’ve had 3 S10’s (aka S15?), 2 were 1/2 tons, and my present one is a 3/4 ton. Just depends on which box you ticked at the dealership. :)

Umm, I believe S-10’s only come in "half-ton" version. There are 2 GVWR’s available, 4400 (C3A) and 4600 (C5D), but not 3/4 ton. You have to get a full size truck to get 3/4 ton, the C/K2500 at about twice the price of an S-10. — Cheers, Steve 82 Z28 96 K1500 The opinions expressed here are mine alone and do not represent those of my employer or any one else.

What is the 1988 Jimmy considered. An S-10 or an S-15? Thanks John — The views expressed in this letter are not necessarily those of the Public Awareness Coalition http://www.netcom.com/~wooffer/main.html

The S-10 is a Chevrolet, and the S-15 was a nearly identical GMC. Somewhere along the way, GMC dropped the S-15 designation on the SUV and just called it a Jimmy. Now Chevy has done the same, using just "Blazer" rather than "S-10 Blazer" (since the full-sized vehicle is now a Tahoe). I don’t believe that the "10" or "15" had anything to do with being a half or three-quarter ton vehicle on the compact pickups, although that’s what it meant on the full-sizers. It was just to differentiate between the Chevy and the GMC. (I could be wrong.) -Alan LaRue – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – >What is the 1988 Jimmy considered.
