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.

Nicest looking dash/gage cluster ever put in any PU truck. After all these years it still looks so good.

Theflyersfan The last 10 laps of the Indy 500. And Kyle Larson showing that he could drive an IndyCar. Few too many wrecks earlier, but the ending more than made up for it.
ToolGuy "the Volkswagen logo at the front is illuminated for the first time"• I didn't want to like it, but now I have to. 😉
ToolGuy "There's a heavy shake/vibration at speeds between 60-75mph or so, before that range, it doesn't shake, and after that speed range, it also doesn't shake. But when it does shake, it can be pretty violent. The van runs beautifully at 80-90+mph but that just so happens to be when the engine light starts flashing, giving the random misfire code."• When you rich genuises in your brand new cars decide to drive 'aggressively' and believe nothing can go wrong, remember that you are sharing the road with this guy.
