Default Need some opinions.

As much as i love my blazer, im getting bored of it.

Its not getting any faster

and its not going through any mud any easier.

As much as i would like it to make it do one of those, its way to expensive.


So do you guys think i should try to sell my blazer to get a 4x4 one?

or i was looking at SS impalas.

Ideas or opinions?

Before you sell it put a locker in it and see if that helps. If not get a 4x4

I've seen a few folks on here that want to make their 4X4 in 2wd. Just trade with one of them.

Yeah, I would just try to get a 4x4 if your wanting to go muddin.
