these kick *** trucks can do everything except change their own spark plugs lol nah they are good trucks with a few slightly annoying quirks. here is a link to a thread about some of their quirks https://blazerforum.com/forum/general-chat-34/list-common-annoying-s-10-blazer-quirks-5771/ .
oh and dont expect 30MPG not gonna happen lol. on the whole though they are great runnin trucks, had mine for a little over 9 months now and love it. welcome to the forum and welcome to the joys of blazer ownership

welcome to the show brother. these trucks are can do just about anything, like blazerguy said. but the biggest thing you need to remember, is that these are little trucks. as others here can attest to some of the carnage i've inflicked on my poor '92, i've never held back on putting them through hard work (which is why i probably kept breaking her). they can hold their own for the most part. just remember, if you're gonna be rough, she'll probably take it for the most part, but something will break (it's not a K5 ya know).
have a good one, and enjoy your new ride.

Welcome to the forums!

I bought a 2002 Blazer in April and it runs great. I love it. The mileage is not good, maybe 17 mpg but its a good truck.

Good luck with your Blazer!

Im new on here too! I have a 2002 for about 4 years now and love it. A few years ago I put in air horns and Im working on putting offroading lights on it. Even though its only 2wd it still does alot, havent had any problems with it. Good luck!
