Hi everybody
I am going tomorrow to pick up my first blazer. Its a 1995 LS 4X4 (2 door) with the 4.3L Vortec. This will be the first truck I've owned. The truck currently has 199K miles on it. I know it's alot;butI was rear-ended about 3 weeks ago where some jackass totalled my other car and the rental car through the insurance company ran out so I had to get a car fast. This seemed like the best deal I could find. I found it on craigslist and am paying $1200 for it.
I was hoping you all could give me some pointers and tips for what to look out for and what I should check.
I'll get some pics up tomorrow after I pick it up.
Thanks,
Erich

[sm=welcomesign.gif]to the Forum. As for things to look for (or look out for), take a look at this thread. Have fun looking through some of the otherthreads here and you will find a lot of information.

Welcome. AND don't be put off by the list of "problems" listed. No matter what make you buy, they all have their own set of problems.I always say it's the same, but different. lol
