My buddy has a 94 S10 SS that has about 220k on it. He has had a fair share of issues, but overall it was a good truck. It now sits on his land as a lot truck. He bought a Jetta 2 years ago. My 99 B2500 (Ranger) has 125k on it and I just drove it 2000 miles from Colorado to New York without a single issue. The SS was VERY quick, but it was built for that. His brother has an 02 Sonoma with ~45k on it. He has had wheel bearing issues, premature tire wear, and other problems. I can't say I have enough information to make a valid decision, but I would say both are good trucks.
