How did Y'all get your Blazers???

[GirlBear]

So did you Buy a Blazer after searching and searching for the right one? Or did you just need a new car and stumble acrossed the Blazer. Or did some one pass it on to you?

Not sure how to create a poll. If anyone knows how. Maybe you'd wanna put this into poll format. cool?

I toke my time in finding just the right one at the right price. I now have a 94', 95, 96, 97, Blazer and a 97 S-10 King cab. I'm still looking for a 93. I'll find it. No need to rush.

Well after one too many speeding tickets i bought a sprint car. Hmm need a tow vehicle and i liked how the blazer looked bought it after searching for the right one, a 96 2dr. Worked great put well over 80k on it in 1 and a half years and sold it. I then found a 97 2dr and after a year or close to it I made a attemt to help and stranded cherokee and long story short the truck got fludded. I pushed the insurance company to total it, which they did. Electronics + water Then after looking for a while bought my 99 Zr2 2dr and I love that damn truck!!

I got my Red Blazer (80k)from a friend of mine at work. He Bought it new, and took excellent care of it in and out, That's why I snapped it up. And I'm glad I got it...

Well my wife wanted a Blazer, so we traded in the Astro van for a new 98 Blazer 4x4. Wife had a friend that worked at a chevy dealer. She got the Blazer at dealer cost. At the time, the dealer was more concerened at pushing volume. Having a friend inside that new what dealer cost helped also. He didn't work there long. Anyway, this past July I sold my Firebird and used the money for a down payment on a TrailBlazer EXT 4x4 for the wife and I got her old Blazer.

Had a 94 Blazer as one of our primary vehicles back in 99-00. Loved that Blazer. Wife totalled it out late in 2000 and we moved on. I've slowly worked our "work" vehicles up to; mine being a 1993 Blazer LT, searched for quite awhile; and my wifes 1995 Blazer LS, in which she answered a radio call in add and when we went to look at it, it was near mint and at a better price than I bought my 93 for! I'm a sucker for a good buy on a GM product.

My S10 p/u was finally giving out with 160k on it and my friend was selling her blazer. It was a good price and very well taken care of and a big upgrade from my stripped pick-up.

I just went online one day and checked the used car section of a Chevy dealership that was nearby. I went there after work, test drove the Blazer and put money down. I wasn't looking for a new car, just happened to find one.

I opened a cracker jack box, and it was inside.

Well I was looking for something that was decent looking and was primarily looking at s-10's because i like the hauling capacity of a truck. After finding nothing suitable around my area and talking to dealers in the surrounding area, I hit up eBay. I found my 02 xtreme and feel in love with it. Got a really good deal on it and got it shipped from jacksonville to central NY for under a grand. Peace-

I went down to the fork in the road and made me a deal with the witchy woman. She said I'd learn them blues, and that I could have a Blazer. Worked out pretty good so far.

[OverBoardProject]

got it froma dead beat former boss that owes me 5 figures.

I might own some heavy equiptment soon too.

Central NY? Cool I lived in Liverpool, Syracuse and Mattydale I'm kind of a nomad. I had some tickets went to jail for a few days lost my license had to sell my Eclipse and 95 Stang to pay for Fines. Spent a few years sans license. When I was able to get my license back I needed a car. My cousins husbands friend gave him the Blazer and he said he'd sell it to me . I wasn't lookin in that direction more like a mazda or toyota. But I used to have an S-10 pickup I loved. so I Bought the blazer. She has her good and bad days. But I must say its the best car/truck i have ever had. I love my Red 96 Blazer.

Do Jimmy's qualify for this thread?

My parents had a 1985 Jimmy when I was born (1986) and it was with me all through my childhood. I loved the truck, my dad hated it - lots and lots of problems. In 1996 we traded it in for a 1991 Dakota, which just wasn't the same. I missed my poo-brown Jimmy lol. So after I got my license, I saved up and bought myself a 1990 Jimmy off a co-worker's cousin for $800.. 366,000kms on the body and possibly the same on the engine though it was supposedly changed.. I'm driving it until theres nothing left,and even then I'm keeping it so that one day when I'm rich and bored I can rebuild it lol.

the crappy part is that I can't drive the dang thing now cause I can't afford the insurance while I'm in school :@ I'm stuck driving a 2001 Corolla which I absolutely HATE

I had a '92 Ford explorer that was just about to die on me, so I called in a favor from a car dealer I worked for in the past. I told him I was looking for a Jeep or a Montero Sport and he called me a day later and said I got something you need to see. Lo and behold it was the '97 Blazer LT. When I first drove it, it was perfect. It made no noises that it shouldn't make and it was perfect on the inside and out. Fast forward 6 months and I would like to drive this Blazer straight up his ass. I always thought I got a good deal for $4900.00. Boy was I wrong.
