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.

The Blazer is awesome. It has a nice turning circle. It doesn't feel like you are driving a truck. The interior is awesome. We have the cd and cassette player. One cool feature about the sound system is that it automatically adjusts the volume level to compensate for road noise as well as AC and other interior noise. Net result...once you set the volume level, that is where it stays.

I haven't had very many problems with this car at all. It has a good engine, great interior, and a bose system

We paid 5000.00 for this blazer and put 3000.00 into repairs over 2.0 years! All front end redone,intake repaired,fuel pump replaced,Something going on with injector tubes est cost 450.00 will not fix this one plan on driving it till it dies! R.I.P.

This style of ZR2 Blazer is absolutely beautiful. The looks, the stance, the BFG's stock. It is an awesome engineering effort by those of general motors, and I wouldn't trade it for anything made out there today. Thanks to chevrolet, we can keep up with the Jeeps on the trail
