Which would be better, a Zr2 S-10 or a Z71 Silverado?

I'm kind of losing interest in my Jimmy, I'm more of a truck kinda guy myself. Which do you all like better for whenever I save enough cash to buy another truck? (I'll probably keep my Jimmy too and give it to my little brother when he turns 16.)

Don't worry i'll stick with the Blazer Forum.

Really depends on what you want it for and what you expect out of it.
Basically, if you want a small truck, get the ZR2. If you want a fullsize, get the Z71. That is what it all boils down to.
There are pros and cons to both.

The problem is, I can see myself in either. I hunt and fish alot so getting through some crazy terrain is a must. It will also be out on the beach in the summer. I'm just looking for opinions really. I hate not having a truck bed to throw my junk in. Also when I trap raccoons to relocate them, it's not the best to have them in an suv with me lol

Take a look at what is around in your area, alot of cheaper full size have been used as a work truck so not the best conditions. Not as much work truck s10's. If it was me I would try for the s10 because of my commuting and can get a little better mpg then a full size but would have to be extended or crew cab.
Yeah extended cab is definitely a must as well. I drive alot too, I think i'll find me a Zr2 s-10 or maybe even the Sonoma model, it won't be for a while though before I start looking. I'm just considering right now.

I love full size's, Problem is they don't fit down the trails I like to wheel on (well they do but only certain ones and it takes ALOT of doing).
