2000 Chevrolet Blazer User Reviews

Could Not Ask For A Better Winter Beater In Snow Country. — I find it funny, the people who mark down this vehicle for poor gas mileage and acceleration/top end. People.. It's an SUV for crying out loud! It's meant to be boxy and clumsy and a gas hog. My God... I bought this because I live where it snows and I have to drive over hills to get to work. My '88 Towncar couldn't cut the hills and my '88 Daytona Turbo I got too squirrelly in the front end when the snow hit. So... the Blazer does what it was meant to do. It gets through the snow. It hauls all matter of things that I put in the back end or put in a trailer. It starts every time I turn the key, and when I put the selector in "D" and push down on the pedal on the right, it moves forward. Is it a gas hog? Damned straight it is! Is it fast? Not compared to my 2006 Grand Prix GXP it's not! But so what? It DOES what I BOUGHT it to do. It's comfortable for a big guy to drive, has a good heater and A/C system, the AC/Delco sound system is a pleasure to listen to, and electronic 4WD is a LOT handier than my old GMC Super Custom 1500 with manually locking hubs! Now for the bad... Rear brake lines. Due to their mounting location, they tend to collect road salt (in those areas where salt is used). This can and will result in corroded and eventually leaking brake lines. Front wheel bearings - they are a hub/bearing assembly, and run about $190 a side when replaced. I've had about four sets put in my Blazer. I'm not quite decided whether it was my mechanic or the parts, but SO far the last set has been holding up. Spark plugs. Good luck trying to replace them on your own. I couldn't get my hands in to find the plugs. I'm a big guy though.. You smaller guys might have an easier time.

Primary Use: Commuting to work

It Nice For Now — The acceleration is fine brakes are just a little more shakey but it handles very nice. Like every other used truck it needs some minor repairs to it but nothing too major. The interior and exterior does not need to be redone but its going to be once I have the cash. :)

As Soon I Put Some Wheels On It And Fix The Rust Spot It Will Be A Very Sharp Looking Sports Suv! — Great running truck i owned 2 blazers now and love them, i just haven a lil issues with it right know but after that i guranteed to last me a long time with the low miles it has on it. Chevy is one of the best out there in my opinion yeah they have mistakes/flaws but overall their a lot better than FORD! lol

Primary Use: Commuting to work

Good Car Whenit Goes — I like the fact it is a SUV. I like the 4.3lt engine and it will jump when the accelerator is mashed. I don't drive that much, so the need comes for hauling groceries, and going out of town. I am disabled. I work on it most of the time on my own. So the reality is this would be a good car if it had a good mechanic, but with me it is alright.

Primary Use: Utility (towing boats, transporting cargo, etc.)
