Thumbs up

Final update.

Got the truck, tested & all works well.

There was only the new car sales guy there & he couldn't tell me anything other than he (and lots of customers admired my truck - seems in the day they moved it into the used car lot for lack of space in the workshop!) so I paid the insurance excess & left.

Truck drove home with no issues. We were in a hurry to get home & pushed it to speeds of 120 - 130 kph most of the way. with no problems. In 2Hi! not 4Lo in case someone wants to ask! LOL The reason for this speed was I was following my wife in her Smart ForFour & at times she was doing 140! Tough to keep the Blazer up there. Especially in the windy roads.

I did find time to stop & take a pic or 2 before the cameras battery died. It's taken beside lake Rotorua.
