I was in the dealer yesterday trying to get an O ring that the other suppliers didn't stock. I asked him for a 2000 Blazer 4x4, then he said, is that a full size or an S-10?? I told him there was only one size. "The nomenclature is sometimes used by ignorant or careless people" - ya got that right.

I refer them as BIG Blazer or Lil Blazer

 

Stopped at a sandwich shop a couple of weeks ago for my wife's B-day. I parked in back of a "Blazer" that looked EXACTLY like mine except for that it was red in color and it said "TrailBlazer" on the tailgate and the lower panel of the two side doors. I have seen other "TrailBlazers" that look to be the same but a longer wheelbase too....
So can anyone explain any of this?

 

The 'Trailblazer' edition was a trim level on the S-series Blazer before the release of the Trailblazer named SUV. Came standard with Auto4wd, two-tone, embroidered leather on the seats and door panels, heated seats/memory seats (i'm sure there are more)...

 

This must have been repainted as it was solid Red. I noticed that the wheels had a bit of a different look to them also.

 

That two-tone was with the leather interior. I don't think they were offered with two-tone exterior paint. And yeah, I like the rims they put on them, real muscular looking. I don't know if I would want them on my own vehicle just because I like being able to see my rotors and calipers. LOL

 

Like Swart said. The first year of hte TrailBlazer was a rebadged S10-Blazer with options.

 

My 2000 Envoy is the top of the line trim level for the Jimmy. Well there was the Diamond edition too, but I like to think mine is better.

The 99-01 Trailblazers were the top of the line trim levels for the Blazer.

Once it stops raining here in MI, I will take some pics of it. I love this damn thing. And the confusion of GM on the names.
