ive never really owned a chevy my self other than a 1970 c10 pick up and amalibu that i drover for 1 day and took a crap so i kniw this is a blazer forum and all and nowim trying out a 99 blazer LS and just just wonderign is this a good 1st chevy car to own i've driving chevys and grew up with chevys but 90% of the cars i have owned have been well Ford

 

"car" so I had a chevy Corsica and it had 410k miles on it. I remember my parents doing brakes,oil changes,and a alternator once or twice but it held up. Ive also owned 2 luminas. great cars.

 

yea my parensts owned an 87 Corsica as well and a 95 astro van

 

I owned a '96 corsica for a few years as my first car. Bought it in '02 with 80K on it and that bugger had 160k miles by the time I was done with it. I beat the **** out of it, did irregular oil changes and just romped on it since at the time I had 0 interest in cars, I was an ignorant fool tbh. Ended up blowing the head gasket I think in 05-06.

Thats when I got my 99 Blazer and if it weren't for an accident I would still have it.

Now i have my 2000 ZR2 and love it, keep it in pristine condition and baby it unless its on the trails.

Each auto maker has its issues but I will never go with a Ford for a SUV or Truck. Nothing against them but my Chevy's have never failed me when needed.

The only thing to note with the blazers is Wheel Bearing issues and possible Ball Joints. Which are cheap enough and easy enough to do with some tech known how.

Just have fun with it, do some reading and there is a ton of stuff to customize on the blazers to make it "yours".

 

yea i been checkign out soem of the other rides to see whats i can do with it for sure im getting a sound system i like me aloud thump

 

Pick up a couple of 1972 Nova's. Use one for parts.

 

novas are nice but i liek the el caminos vetter SS

 

Buick Roadmaster. Love mine. Fast. Has a V8 LT1. Great if you dont care about MPG lol.

 

Dont forget the Pontiac Grand Am. I had a 92 4 door with a 2.2 4 cyl. We got it with 242k miles on it for 400 bucks, it lasted 3 years and after I stuck around 600 into it the motor decided it didnt want to work anymore with 276k on it, so I took the new tires off, and hauled it to the junk yard and got 120 for it. THEN I remember that I had brand new shocks on it, but it was too late, it was a cube by then,lol.

 

nice story cant imagine seign a car being cubed up lol almost done fixing the van so i can move on to fix the blazer to get it up and running cant wait so fari have foudn 2 tarantulas on it
