"new" jersey guy
Don't have one yet but I am looking. I have been reading through here for a few weeks to find out what to look for/avoid in a used Blazer. If anyone has some advice in that department it would be appreciated. That's about it I guess, hope to have some pics of my new ride to post up here soon.
BTW, here is what I am driving now if anyone cares.

Welcome to the forum from Canada!
As ABN said what are you looking for from your Blazer? There are 3 types: the Xtreme the ZR2 and the standard Blazer. All very different. The Xtreme is lowered and has a body kit (more for show and street). The ZR2 is lifted (good for off roading) and the regular Blazer is just stock but still very capable off road. The possibilities are endless as far as mods go with any of them.
Amazing pic of that GTO by the way. Looks like it's out of a magazine/brochure. Do you do photography?

First off thanks for the compliments. To answer your question Sisk I have been playing around with photography for a few years now but nothing serious. I am selling the GTO, not really "replacing" it with a Blazer but more trying to save some $ (I am getting close to buying a house).
I should have been more clear on my first post. I was just looking for problem areas common on 2nd gens. Items to look at when I go and check out possible trucks. I would prefer a 2 door but if I can find a nice, clean well maintained 4 door I wouldn't shy away from it. Only thing I know I don't want is an Xtreme. Oh and it has to be 4x4
