Wondering if anyone has pulled a trailer with their Blazer, and how it did. We have a 2002 and are looking at buying a pop up trailer with a total weight between 2500 and 3000 lbs. Would like like to know what you guys think.

should pull it well. my only suggestion would be to get a tranny cooler installed. i pulled many a heavy trailers with my 2 blazer and it does just fine.

It will pull it fine. I just recently hauled a car for a total weight of about 5000lbs on a 100mile trip. The blazer did alright except for going up big hills. I would suggest the same as the above post and buy a transmission cooler. I believe B&M make a good one for our blazers. Also, don't haul in Overdrive. Make sure you're hauling in 3.
