Hi i am new to these forums, i recently joined a crx forum as i thought i was gonna buy a crx, learnd all about them then when i was ready to purchase it, it was sold. So now i will be looking into this blazer:
http://grandeprairie.kijiji.ca/c-car...AdIdZ125521511

not sure how great a deal is thats why im posting
Btw how good are these things on gas? cause im gonna be delivering pizza until march sumtimes usuing my cavalier, but my gf will have it sumtimes so i will be stuck usuing a blazer for delivering, unless its horrible on gas:S (what kind of MPG these puppies have?)

And whats kinds of models do blazers come in? and what are the ranks of models i would like to know alot more about blazers b4 i buy one just like the crx, just hope its not sold :P


Edit: i just read alot of reviews on the 2000 blazer :S and looks like theyre not very reliable, any disagreements?

Official MPG POll

Reliability is (like any used car) primarily due to the care given by the previous owners. Spend some time reading the various threads we have and most of your questions will be answered.

Looks like a nice truck to me for a fair price... American MPG's are a little different (our equivalent mpg's are higher) I have a 5spd 4x4 and get around 18-19 mpg in town, I've seen 28mpg on the hwy doing around 110kph. Be gentle on it and the gas mileage will reflect it. I'll pull around 400 km's per tank of gas, which will last me a week going back and forth to school.

Search for common problems among all Blazers, keep an eye on front end parts and regular preventative maintenance is always a great idea.

I get pretty much the exact same mileage on the highway and driving to school as you do.

In the winter I only get about 280km's on a tank, due to command starting, using heat, and idling. But I never got stuck once!

I don't idle/have command start so I'll pull roughly 300km's during the winter.
