Thinking bout tradingin the blazer
So im thinking about trading in my blazer, but kinda keepin the same thing, lookin at gettin a S-10 ZR2...around 03'ish... My question is, does anyone know how big the back seat is? It just needs to be big enough for my son so sit in, hes 19 months old so hes got a car seat.. I am buying a house that needs some work done so when i go to menards n such i got a truck to use instead of always borrowing my dads silverado thats a damn gas hog...Ive just never acutally seen the backseat of an S-10...

Unless you get a 4 door S10, they are tiny. I think they are just a jump seat which folding into the side of the cab if you're not using it.

not really looking for room..jus big enough for my son to fit in... no one ever rides with me but him regardless

Not 100% on this but the S10's may have the ability to turn off the passenger's side air bag. I know most trucks have this option and I can't see why the S10's wouldn't. As far as how much room is back there...very little. I'm not even sure you could strap in a car seat, let alone you would want to.
As for Silerados getting terrible milage, I only wish I got the milage my dad gets on his 99 Z71 with the 5.3. |

I get around the same mileage as my dads Dodge 1500 with the 5.7l V8 :(
As for the airbag, I don't know if you can disable it but you may be able to get a bench seat, meaning you could have him in the middle, right next to you and out of airbag range. As for those jump seats, if they're anything like the Ranger I could barely fit back there when I was 10 yrs old. |
I'm pretty sure they are jump seats, which won't accomodate a car seat (atleast not in a safe manner). There really isn't much room back there at all if you only get the extended cab.

They are jump seats. My gf's dad had an S-10 before he got an F-150. Highly doubt you'd want to put a 19 month old back there.

But our driving styles are different too which has a lot to do with it |
One of my friends owns an S-10 and another owns a Ranger. The seat is pretty much identical. Both jump seats.
Also, the S-10 has the passenger air bag shut-off too. You just use your key and turn it. I know this because I was able to use my Blazer key to turn off his air bag. :icon_goofygrin: |
