It was raining on the way home

and my new" truck has RWD and crappy tires. There was oppo everywhere. Well, almost everywhere, here's a conversation I had with my truck while I was in a parking lot while wanting to do a powerslide:

Me: "Hey truck, I want to do a powerslide"

Truck: "Hell, no bitch! I'm a truck! Do you want me to tip over?"

Me: "Aww, you're not going to tip over. I'm going to try it anyways." *gives touch of brakes and full throttle*

Truck: "I don't wanna die!" *magically finds grippy patch of tarmac - truck stays grounded to the ground*

Me: "I hate you truck, that was the worst powerslide ever"

Truck: "I hate you too."

Side note: This photo is old. I just recently painted all black trim on the truck.

How many people on here can lay claim to owning a talking car? So there's that.

Hate cocky trucks. Sometimes you just gotta bitch slap them to get them straightened out.

My truck doesn't so much talk to me but scream at me to stop trying to make an almost 14 year old truck drive like a race car! Sometimes, having the third pedal, makes me do stupid things.

My car is an angry German. It enjoys being punished. Except for that one time when I was still learning to drive it and accidently did a 4th-1st shift. There's a scream I'll never forget. Fortunately I was only doing 15mph at the time.

Had the 4 door with the 4.3, I can attest to the "Oh hey grip!" factor of these. It refused to break loose in 2 wheel even in the snow.

4th gear doing 15MPH? Damn! I'm still in 1st at 15!

It was supposed to be 1-2 shift but I accidentallied into 4, so I tried shifting into 3, but I fucked that up and ended up pulling off a 1-4-1 shift. As I said, I was still learning.

Always liked the 2nd gen Blazer, probably because it is an actual truck, and not a car that's been jacked up like its modern decedents, the Equinox/Terrain.

Especially liked the big VORTEC sixes in them. Quite meaty.

What trim level is that, LS or LT?

Ha ha nice. I remember the first time I ever drove a stick. Successfully pulled off driving in 1st, got excited, foot slipped off the pedal, got slightly scared, hit the brake instead of the gas, stalled. Pretty sure I'm the only one in history to stall a car that's in motion!

Not at all! Once when I was learning, I was coming to a stop and left it in 5th gear and stalled it at 10 or 15mph. Multiple times too!

Ha ha all you had to do was press the clutch a little more and you probably would have been fine!

Oh your blazer will power slide in the rain! It will happen when you don't want your blazer to drift.

LS, it's pretty base. It is only 2wd.
