Haha congrats on the "beater".

Though its a chevy, its an 03, so its not really a beater?

More of a DAILY DRIVER i'd say.

Any Chevy is a beater

Haha, S10s are cool though. Man... I can barely afford one car. I sure can't afford a beater, especially a 2003.

You guys are right its more of a daily driver. I have to drive 30 mi. each way to go to and from work, so at 19-25mpg its easy on my wallet. I said it was a beater b/c I traded my real beater a 84' dodge ram for it. Oh and it was loaded too everything accept the v6 + I got a $1,500 cash rebate.

I just got a new car today too. Although I'll only have it for a week while mines in the body shop. Gotta love the Toyota Echo. It's kinda like a fat chick and a moped. While it's fun to ride, you don't want to get caught by your friends on it. I made sure to pay for the extra insurance too I'm still wondering if it can do a burnout. The ebrake works great though.
