Nice looking truck in the perfect setting. It should work well for you in snowy Alberta. I am also a fan of the standard tranny for pure fun and better control off road.

Actually, it doesn't seem to handle the snow as well as my old Mazda B2600 did... Might be just the tires (I think they're whatever came on the vehicle... not sure...) But then again, I think the LSD on my mazda was a tad more aggressive, lol, and I think the front auto locked when it was put in 4x4...

Tires make a world of difference. Driving in snow is like driving on dry pavement for me.

Yeah, I noticed those, lol

Ground clearance helps a lot in the snow too! Though, my Blazer is only like an inch or so lower than my Mazda at most... Then again, my Mazda had snow/ice tires up front, and walmart mudders on the rear...

I think my tires might also be a touch too wide. A little narrower does better in the snow...

All I know is my Blazer had some issues with 2 - 3 feet of snow, where my beater Mazda plowed through 4 - 5, and kept pushing theMazda shaped snow bank for a good 20 - 30 feet before I backed up due to poor visibility...

Out of curiosity, does anyone remember what the factory tires are on these things?

Just wait until my new tails get in

And when I found out if the push bar I'm looking at fits or not...

It should, since it's for a '98 - '01 Blazer...

Yet, the S10 version goes for '98 - '04
same model #, lol
