Talking Hello blazer community!

Hello to all and thanks for this great forum!
I drive a 2001 4x4 4.3l Blazer.
Guess byte stryke and me are the only ones in middle east.
The blazer is well doing in the desert: Relatively light and strong - it's really a fun to ride through the dunes.
My plan is to equip the blazer with more grip tires, bring it more up and maybe to tune it up with a strong cow bar. But not for cows or wildlife, it's for the other cars, because some drive so mad here - you don't believe before you have seen it.

Sincerely - Hirni

Welcome to the forum!
Interesting to see people from around the world! Great pic in your sig too, I love it. Looks out of a magazine (that is of your blazer...right?)

Hi Sisk28,
yes of course it's mine. I made the picture when we had a small break in the shadow of the rock.
But later it was a little bit tricky to get out of the big sinkhole around it, because of the loose sand (and I got an extra adrenaline kick because of a small pile of damaged tires, exploded cooling hoses and rusty car parts in the center of the sinkhole / not shown on the picture): I had to try twice and it's always better to stop on the top of the dunes.

By the way: I like your picture, too. And it was a good inspiration for me when I've seen it in my heater core thread. It's the nightlife speedy city highway blazer.

That's awesome! It really does look like it's out of a magazine.
And thanks. Mine is actually of the bridge that crosses the harbour in my city. I didn't take the harbour picture in the background (unfortunately) but I did take the one of my blazer and photoshopped it in.
Are there many blazers in the middle east? I didn't realize byte stryke was from there, you guys are the only 2 I've heard of from the middle east.

Nice! Welcome! One question, do you have to deal with replacing rubber (tires, gaskets, hoses, etc. all the time because of the weather) What a pain in the A$$!
