i wish, bought mine for $14000, but with the amount owing on trade in put it to $21000. If only i could knock that in half, lol.
Add about $3000 to the total bill and that's what I paid for mine, after taxes, and including extended warranty, lol.

I need to start making double payments on it soon, though...

Not likely, but I can hope!

There's always the lottery... If I win that, the Blazer is gonna be rolling on 40" tires with a duramax under the hood

4.5L duramax... supposed to be at least as good on fuel as the 5.3L V8... 520 ft/lbs of instant torque.

It's not about the fuel mileage... LS9 would be nice for the street truck... But I doubt it's tuned for the instant, low end grunt of the diesel

True about the low end torque the diesel does have that over it but the LS9 still pack a punch with its torque rating, of which will be plenty for my blazer to get it movin in a heart beat!!

But since I have my blazer paid off in full now, I am going to save up to do a motor swap!! boohoohaaaa [sm=badbadbad.gif]
