Default Well...after 10 years...goodbye blazer





She was a damn good Truck. I bought her in 06 for $6800 with 100k on the clock. Sold her this week for $3k and 220k on the clock. Never had a major issue, just some sensors here a fuel pump there. Best value in a vehicle I'll Ever get probably?

Replaced her with


a 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland that I doubt will be half as trouble free with its electronics, but hoping it last 10 years like the Blazer did.

She looked damn good for a 15 year old Truck, rattled like a spray paint can, but held her own visually. I'll miss it. But times a change.

Thanks for this board for all the help DIY'ing my upgrades over the years. It's been a fun ride.

Nooooooooo....Not sold out for a jeep. But seriously though congrats. That is a good looking jeep. I'm partial to blazers and yours was pretty good looking. But they do have their quirks lol. I know a few people who have bought those grand cherokee's and they love them. But for driving a blazer for ten years, you earned it lol. Enjoy that sweet looking ride!

lol, yea. I have owned nothing but GM my whole life with our current cars being a 2014 Regal GS and a 1999 Z28. It was time for something different. The Blazer was just a beast though..she powered through everything I threw at her and just was a work horse.

Oh yeah. That's why I love mine. She is a tank. Anything mother nature throws at her, she just goes right through it. Nothing can stop her
