HNUBD!

Nope. It's 4wd. Just has the 15" rims and the standard size LS package tires.

It does sit about a foot lower than my Ranger though. I mean, the ground clearance is probably about the same, but it feels like you're much closer to the ground in the Blazer.

It looks in great shape. I've had 2 of them over the years, a 1990 and a 1996. Both were great vehicles.

It seems to be in great shape. Automatic transmissions scare me, though. I've only ever owned one other one, and that was the Pontiac Montana. We had to have the tranny replaced (under warranty) less than a year after we bought it (used) and the tranny needed replaced again when we sold it about 50k miles later.

I know they aren't all terrible. My mom had a Grand Am with an auto tranny that she put well over 200k miles on. I've just not had much experience with them, and I don't really even know how they work, so I can't really work on them myself.
 
I bet that would tow my buggy along to the desert quite smartly. For me, that would be perfect. :grin:
 
Oh i know it would. It would be freakin' perfect. I have GAS.

I looked at a ton of mid sized SUVs. I was really torn between the Blazer and an '05 Explorer.

The Blazer won out because of the odometer reading.

The Blazer is an '03 with 94k miles for $6500 + tax, tags, title.

The Explorer was an '05 with 127k miles for $5500 out the door.

The Explorer was also really nice though.

And, there's an Explorer with a 4.6l V8 that only gets 1 mpg less than the 4.0 V6, but gives you about 240 HP. I found one of those too, but again, it had 125k miles on it and was gonna cost $5500 + tax, tag, and title.

My old 4.0 Explorer had TONS of power though. I think that either a 4.0 Ford or the 4.3 Chevy would be more than enough to drag your buggy wherever you wanted to go.
