11998 Chevrolet S-10 XTreme Force Test Drive
Twist the ignition key and nearby flora wilt as panicked fauna scamper for cover. The Xtreme Force S-10 pickup settled into a jagged 1500 rpm idle with a stuttering exhaust bark that clearly indicated you’d best be on a racetrack , or have extremely understanding neighbors. With plans to create an NHRA pro stock truck division for the 1998 drag racing season, Chevy thought it only natural to put together a special S-10 pickup that would offer an idea of what such a race truck might be like, and to give S-10 owners a look at what was possible on the modification front with their own vehicles.
The Chevy engineer is absolutely visionary when he says in ten years pickups will be the big street machines.
There’s a huge street truck scene now that is arguably rivals regular cars now.
