What is the towing capacity of 2000 Chevy S-10 with 2.2 liter engine and 4 speed automatic transmission?

The towing capacity of a 2000 Chevy S-10 with a 2.2L engine and 4-speed automatic transmission is not consistently documented and varies. GM didn't publish a single, universally applicable towing capacity number for this specific configuration. The actual towing capacity depended heavily on the specific options and configuration of the truck (axle ratio, optional towing package, etc.).

To find the accurate towing capacity for a *specific* 2000 Chevy S-10, you'll need to:

* Check the owner's manual: This is the most reliable source. The manual should list the towing capacity for your truck's specific configuration.

* Look for a sticker: Check the driver's side doorjamb or the glove compartment for a sticker that lists the vehicle's specifications, including towing capacity.

* Consult a GM parts website or dealer: They may be able to access the specifications based on the VIN number of your truck.

Without access to the specific vehicle's documentation, it's impossible to give a definitive answer. Attempting to tow beyond the vehicle's rated capacity is dangerous and can lead to mechanical failure.
