What a call I got at work... you know the call. The ones that make you get sick inside. Young driver, less than 1 year driving, bad judgement, inattention... should I go on? No one was hurt bad, that is the main thing! He was downtown in a 25MPH area of our town, turned left in front of a 94 Explorer....wham! T-Boned. Blazer is toast. His sister was riding shot gun with her friend in 2nd row. Friend got a fat lip and loose tooth. That was it! Son was able to cripple home after city cop OK'ed it. Other SUV drove home. By the dammage done to the S-10, the Ford was not going 25MPH. Son said he had plenty of time.....well he did not. Hard lesson. Big time self training going on here.... ZR2 is for sale. I will list it in the classifids. I will put it on eBay today again. Had it on for a week already. Sorry I did not let all of you know about it. Very busy with the Holidays and all. Tried to find a ZR2 to replace it for cheap...no such thing. Everything I found so far is more $ than my son and I have right now.

I will up load some pics to my page of the 1999 ZR2.

that is the one thing i'm not looking forward to. while i still have 6 years before my oldest kid is able to get a learners permit, i know full well that day is going to be here in the blink of an eye.

while it sucks that you guys have lost your ride, @ least you know they come out of it still in one piece.

Trucks can be rebuilt and replaced, people can't. Glad to know the kids are allright.

Gotta agree. When the day ends, it's just a truck that can be replaced.
