Ha, not an 8 cylinder, probably a 4.2L inline 6 cylinder. If they showed the 8th character of the VIN, we would know for sure what engine it is equipped with. It has AWD using a single speed NV136 transfer case. Can't lock it in or out of AWD, (always active) which will decrease fuel mileage. Prime example of a "Blazer wannabe".

 

The guy called my back this morning and said it was 2wd??????........I think bravada is off my list.......don't want 2wd or awd or v8 for that matter......

 

I think i will look at this one.........it's a little over blue book.....may he will deal a little??

offer him 2500.00 cash, have it in hand so he see`s it. when i bought my blazer they wanted 3000.00, i didnt want to pay more than 2500.00. offered him 2200.00, he came back with 2500.00. done deal

 

It will be cash only.......that's about the only way people want deal on CL any more......blue book says 2518 for very good condition..........depending on what it looks like, i won't go over 2500........I'm not in a hurry......and just starting to look.........

the hunt is more fun than the kill............it took me a lot of years to figure that out ;-)

 

shoot that must have been a good one..........it sold before i could even look at it!!!!

 

Not sure how this will work as there is no transfer case to put in neutral. The 2000 system is like my 01...it kicks the front wheels in when it detects wheel slippage. I don't think you can put them in neutral and tow, I would think you'd have to remove the rear drive shaft and put the front wheels on a dolly....or get a full trailer that takes all the wheels off the ground and then tow it with no issues.

I love my 01 and it has 268K on it so far...put a used tranny in a few years ago, but other than just regular maintenance...

 

As i search, i am finding that even the 2000's and up, have a LOT of miles, ..........so I have decided to set my top dollar a little higher and wait for the one that is just right......

I don't need to worry about towing any more....we don't travel far in the motor home any more......

We probably would only put 5 or 6k a year on a blazer........just for kicking around town and occasional trips to the mountains.......

 

Just curious, where in CO do you live? We live near Divide/Florissant area.

 

Prison town........canon city ;-).............the banana belt......compared to Divide........
