Summary
Of course, there's nothing that can be said against the ZR-2 pickup that will hold any sway with anyone intent on buying one, whether for the macho image or for actually going off road. In the first case, the rough ride and the big step up are inconveniences to revel in, like coming home from a weekend camping trip with three-day stubble. For the person who uses it, as Chevrolet recommends, for serious recreational off-road driving," it's simply part and parcel of the experience. You can't do the work without the tool, and for the select few who want or need an authentic off-road compact pickup truck, the Chevrolet S-10 ZR-2 pickup is up to the task."
