Used Chevrolet Blazer for Sale near Foothills, AB

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 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. :)

I like the low miles it had on it when I purchased it. However it is not the same size as my 1999 Blazer that I was going to use for parts on this one, some will fit & some won't.

Had to to get a new motor...Good in the winter though, performance wise its decent but not the best in gas mileage. Pain in the ass because of fixing everything such as the engine. But all in all its a decent SUV

Performance- great power but lags at moments when needed. also having issues with the braking when cold outside Build-minor mechanical repairs, and some paint chips great overall appearance, fully custom accessories Cost of ownership- gas mileage sucks 12MPG b fg
