Blazer or Jeep?

yes, I know what he was talking about, I just had to try to be funny.

I was thinking the same thing at first glance.

But I voted Jeep as a whole over the Blazer.

I personally would go for a blazer instead of a jeep. I know that a jeep sucks at pulling trailers or whatever. My step moms jeep can not pull anything onless she wants her whole bottom pulled out.

I'd go with the old Full-size blazers over any Jeep.

The biggest reason I quote is that the full size Blazer's and Jimmy's had optional diesel engines, therefore they last forever. :)

Besides that, you can fit more in a full sized Blazer. Those would be the only two good reasons I can think of.

You should lump the Suburban in that group of Blazers, since they really are just lengthed Blazers/Jimmys, or the other way round :)

If you don't like big trucks, and don't care for diesel, it's a toss up.

well here's my story. My borther and his wife until recently were both driving blazers. the 95 caught an engine fire and blew up this summer and the 98 has what I like to call auto 4 wheel drive. Since chevy had the great idea to use a button to switch to 4 wheel the thing had some problem and doing 60 on the interstate the thing would flip into 4 wheel. of course it can't swtich at that speed so it was a loud grinding sound until we could get in down to about 35 and then it would lock up all 4 and slide down the shoulder till we got down to about 20-25 mph.

I've driven blazers... they are more roomy then my cherokee, but they are junk like most suburbanite vehicles they start to fall apart at about 90-100k miles, stuff like the cigarett lighter getting stuck, tranny giving ppl headaches, the stereo shorting on something causeing the rear speakers to go out. blown front speakers, Air compressor seizing up front suspension needing an overhaul.

While you hear about jeep with 200k+ miles on them the only one I have actually ridden in is a 87 that a guy from work owns. While it has 240k miles on it... it's got worn out seats and coffee crusted to the center console from a hard break and a lazy owner.

I bet you can't find a blazer with 200k miles on it that still runs and if it runs, it's pry burning oil at a quart a tank.


In my mind it's absolutly clear which of the two is going to survive the other....push button 4 wheel drive... baaaaaaaah humbug

Um, mine's got 440k on it, (440,000 miles) and probally goes thru a quart in every 3k miles.

The body and inisde IS shot to hell however. And you can be sure I don't have no push button 4x4.

Jeep unless its a liberty. Ewwww

If I didn't care how long the vehicle would last, and if I was doing straight up off-roading, I would take a Wrangler. I would never consider any other type of Jeep.

On the other hand, if I wanted a more quality car that will last longer, at the sake of some off-road performance, I would go with a Blazer.

Honestly, it is all personal opinion.

Mmmm..Jeeeppp...yay, only 15min. and I'm off..get to drive my baby again! (Wrangler)

It's like an addiction...who needs crack when you've got a Jeep?
