1999 Chevrolet Blazer LS review from North America
"I love my Blazer, it's hot!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I've only owned the Blazer for about 5 months now, but so far have had no problems (knock on wood). My boyfriend tells me that I will be needing a front ball joint soon though.
My one and only complaint is the squeaky rear window!!! : (I've tried everything to fix it, but have not been successful... anybody have any ideas?)
General comments?
I like my Blazer because it is a very versatile unit. It's good on the beach in the sand, in the snow, and in the rain. It is very durable and reliable.
It is pretty hard on gas though, so if you want something that you don't have to spend much on gas per week, than a Blazer probably isn't the best choice.
When I was thinking about getting a new car/truck, I really wanted a truck, but decided on the Blazer because it has the same attributes as a truck (4 X 4, tough, bad ass ha ha), but it was also more of a passenger vehicle that I could jam my friends in and go on a road trip if I wanted to. Ha ha.
So I would recommend a Blazer to anyone that wants the power and durability of a truck, but wants the space of a car.
