Used Car of the Day: 1987 Chevrolet Silverado K10

Here's a blast from the past -- I grew up around trucks like this. Today's UCOTD is a 1987 Chevrolet Silverado K10.


That's the last year of the square body and the first of fuel injection. This truck has four-wheel drive and a long bed. The odo shows 71,000 miles but the owner thinks it's actually 171,000 miles.

The seller claims the truck runs and drives well and has been well-maintained, but it does have some minor issues with instrumentation and a little bit of rust.

It's driven daily, but also to car shows, and the owner wants $19,900. This truck is a Texan. Click here to check it out.

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

  • EBFlex Another awful, overpriced, and uninteresting golf cart that nobody wants and nobody will buy. At least the fake lightning has company now. Two trucks that suck at being trucks.
  • EBFlex It would be ironic but the government should mandate a way to completely disable the radios that transmit OUT of a vehicle. Receiving signals (XM, AM/FM) would be allowed but the rest should be able to be disabled quickly and easily.
  • EBFlex Absolute garbage.Ford is up to 25 recalls for the year affecting 2,955,962 vehicles. 2nd place is FCA at 21 recalls affecting 1 million vehicles.Farley needs to be fired ASAP.
