1997 Chevrolet Blazer 4 Dr STD 4WD SUV Review
ProsGreat 4x4 for those occasional snow problems tons of interior space Conspoor gas mileage and an assortment of problems around the 150,000 mile rane

It Was Probably A Wonderful Car When New But Know It Might Need A Lot Of Work In The Long Run. — This was my first car and I was super excited about the car. It had great drivability and felt like it had power. It wasn't until after a couple years owning it that it started having major problems. First thing was the ball joints and the idler arm that had to be replaced. That cost me about $1500. Then about a year later the fuel pump went out and had to have that replaced for another grand. Lets just say I got tired of getting stuck on the side of the road. Oh and the alternator has been replaced a good 2 or 3 times. One thing I did love about this car is it had plenty of room to move my stuff including some furniture. It sucks gas but is fun to drive. Even went off roading with it once. Primary Use: Commuting to work

Go Blazerrrrr — Paint is good, build quality poor (lots of rattles and squeaks) 4.3L is pretty peppy and decent on gas Lots of money in repairs (over 5 years and 57,000 miles) Yeah I enjoy driving it and beating on it daily Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) | ||

Pros4WD works good, ok on gas, still reliable after 209,000 ConsGutless performance, small gas tank
35
Old Reliable — This thing is the most reliable car I have ever owned. It has 209,000 miles on it and still running strong. It is gutless in the performance department but it gets me where I need to go. 4WD works good on the beach and snow. Not the best towing rig but it tows my 21' Checkmate w/ tandem axle trailer to the launch and back all summer long. Primary Use: Commuting to work |
