just rolled 218000 today on my 98. bought two years ago from original owner with documents from the dealership. The truck has had 2 fuel pumps put in it. The a/c system done twice by previous owner. Still runs like a champ.

97 4 WD with 201,000. GM factory rebuilt transmission at 115,000 and just put in 2nd replacement fuel pump but I use the non OEM and got 75,000 or so out of it so not too bad. I do all the labor myself. I just keep it as a backup.

Also a 2000 2WD with 180,000 and absolutely no problems with it at all since my late wife's mother gave it to her in '05.

Mine's a 95 with original drivetrain. I'm at 238,000 and expect to get 300,000 before I need/want to do a rebuild. It's a love/hate thing with blazers...but it's still sitting there in the driveway, so what does that tell ya? I got lucky with mine. It was a one-owner truck when I got it with 170,000 on it. Well taken care of by the old man who owned it. Came with loads of maintenance documentation and even the original build sheet/window sticker. Replaced the head gasket a while back and when I checked compression, it still shows over 10:1
