The Blazer was in all ways a hit with many who wanted a hardtop and durable vehicle, and a horse that was also able to lug around a sizable cargo. Many elements of the Blazer have been modernized as of late, but the vibe of a true trekker that is able to jump off road when needed is still the same. We have so many great locations near St Louis to have outdoor adventures: Elephant Rocks State Park is just under an hour and 45 minutes away. Here you can climb on and jump across boulders, and admire the otherworldly appearance and abundance of red granite.
Automotive News Reports stated over the last week that Chevy will revive this much-love name next year, with the addition of a new midsize crossover set to directly compete with the Nissan Murano, as well as the Ford Edge. We recognize that these are sleek and savvy new vehicles that are a bit reminiscent of what you would expect if you let an old school Tyco slot racing track model series collide with something from the “Tron” movie reboot a few years back. When you get a first glance at vehicles such as the Edge, it seems like they aren't really suitable for rugged use, but numerous test drivers claim otherwise.
The shared platform is going to be with the very latest GMC Acadia, and take its illustrious and noted place in line within the Chevy lineup between the Equinox and the Traverse. The Acadia is currently the best-selling model behind the Sierra pickup, and prototypes of the Chevy under thick camouflage have been spotted traveling on many public roads. The last Blazer was one that existed before the full-fledged Trailblazer, which had a strong run with consumers until 2009.
The original S-10 Blazers and S15 Jimmy were based heavily on the Chevrolet S-10 and GMC S-15 pickup trucks, and many were sad to see the two-door Blazer model sales end in 2004. After a bit of confusion with flow and backend in models around 1994, Playboy Magazine hailed the 1995 model as it's hands down truck of the year, and it also took top honors in Motor Trend for their heralded truck of the year. This all-new 5-passenger midsize will be the first time the Blazer namesake has been offered since 2005, and should immediately cultivate memories of steep-inclined jaunts, as well as excited drummers: this was the vehicle of choice for percussionists' valuable cargo for decades.
At an estimated 194 inches, the new Blazer will sit at about ten inches shorter than the Traverse, and will also compete directly with vehicles such as the Honda Pilot. Come pay us a visit at Jim Butler to check out the front-wheel drive and all-wheel configurations, and see whether the 4-cylinder or V-6 option is best for you. We expect this new Blazer to share Chevy's current trim level options, including base LS, midlevel LT, and high-end Premier. We are excited to be a part of a classic this epic roaring back to life, and agree that the timing couldn't be better for the Blazer to rumble on to the lot.
