Default I Love My Blazer

It's times like today that I'm glad I got rid of my FireChicken and picked up the Blazer. It's rained more in the last few hours than it has in the last few months (which is the norm down here in South Florida). There's flooding everywhere, especially in the parking lot in which I park at school, since it's lower than the street. Had I still had the Firebird, there would be a puddle on the floorboard right now, no doubt, but the Blazer is sitting dry
On a side note, can't wait 'till I have the money for the body lift and 31's. I'm sitting on P215/75/15s right now , well I can afford the body lift, but I'm gonna wait until I can afford the tires too. Kinda hard for a full-time student though

Haha I know I know! I haven't heard any downpours in the past hour or so, but I'm in class so I don't how it is outside. But... the good thing is at least my truck should be nice and clean for pictures!

Alright I just got home, and it's still raining BUT, I sucked it up and took pics . So here they are, '89 S10 Sport 4x4







I moved my spare tire to the floor and attached the hook thing to what I think is the drain plug? The large hex bolt with a little handle on it. Anyway I moved it there because the hook kept loosening up and squeaking and it was annoying. Plus this way I can fit my milk crate perfectly without it moving around.



Nice clean engine bay

I can back what he is saying...

I drove other vehicles before my blazer was fixed, and it never felt exactly right, but last night the 1.5 hour trip to school felt like heaven... All I could have used was a little loving from the fiancee to make it Purfect... woot woot lol
