I paid $600 for it in June, and I've put over 12,000kms on it since then. The Blazer may be over 4,100lbs, and automatic, but she just keeps on going.

In what I think is its natural habitat, an hour up a logging road in the mountains of BC

That is very specific....it's close to the weight of E32s I believe, so really it's almost a 7 series

I had a '94 and it was a tank. Loved that thing.

2000 S10 4x4 with the 4.3 V6. Sorry for the shitty potato photo we were at a gun range that day. I love the little 4.3 that sucker pulls strong.

Nice! Yeah the 4.3 is kind of a tank, low specific output, but 250ish ft-lbs at 2800rpm is awesome

It is a satisfying kick in the ass sometimes. Rust is a pain in the ass but such is the life of GM build quality at the time.

So far it seems I'm lucky in there rust department....a '97 and it's still on its original exhaust system. Most of the undercoating intact......I think I'm the first owner to take it off the pavement

Haha there's no real pattern to the cars I buy, other than the majority of them being BMWs so far.....

Too bad winters are so brutal. That's great yours is intact and good. No body panel rust even? If so that's awesome
