1998 Chevrolet Blazer LS review from North America
"I've never gotten stuck, and I live in new england"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Alternator went at 100000 miles.
Needed to replace all 4 brakes (calipers, rotors, and new emergency brakes) around 100000.
Windshield wipers only shut off when they want to.
Rear wiper not functioning.
Rear driver side seat doesn't fold down any more.
General comments?
This truck has pretty good power, but not enough for street racing or burn outs.
The interior is very roomy and comfortable.
The gas mileage is very low.
The appearance is clean and simple and with just enough trim.
Looks much better with large tires (i have the biggest I can without lift)
Also looks much better with after-market lights (fogs, parking lamps, tail lights head lights)
