I had an '89 sport, white with the multicolor gray stripes along the
bottom. It was with the V6 and 4 speed automatic. More or less had
every option including 4x4, including the light bar with lights and the
fog lights, only thing I can remember it not having was Air. I bought it
new in the fall of '89, and was quite happy with it, except it could have
used more power. I was commuting to work with it, and the commute
included a climb of 2000' of elevation in a 25 mile stretch of highway,
and it showed a lack of passing power going up those long hills.
Unfortunately, I totaled the truck in January of '92, and had to settle
for a '92 v8 work truck as a replacement.
