Greetings from WI
Hi,
New here, came to find a little info.
I just bought my 3rd Blazer this weekend, a 04 ZR2 with 49000 miles, which will replace my beloved 93 S10 2 door Tahoe (186,000 miles) that I've been driving for 10 years. Before that I had an 85 S10 2 door.
While I like the outer styling of the 96-05 2 door Blazer I'm finding Chevy kind of dropped the ball regarding visibility when compared to the previous body style. I'm sure I'll get used to it, but it seems rather foreign after driving the 93 for so long.

Thanks for the welcomes.
The only one I've taken so far is a quick "family portrait".

Unfortunately no. It's a little sad to see it go, it's gotten me to & from some of the best times of my life.
It has a list of minor stuff wrong beyond the rust & cosmetic issues. The driver's door bushings & lock are shot, digital dash doesn't work (only odometer & speedometer working), driver's window has issues, cruise & air don't work, eventually it will need some front end work, not sure if the 4 wheel drive is working anymore. It's a reliable runner & I take it on road trips quite often still, but all those things add up & considering the high miles & overall body condition it's not worth putting the money into it.
I put just over 100,000 miles on it since I got it so it's time to move on. I'm going to put it on Craigslist, it still might be of use to someone as a plow or farm vehicle. If I don't get any takers I'll take it to the scrap yard & get what I can.
