Very Reliable/Excellent Dependability - 1996 Chevrolet Blazer
By dennosar - June 16 - 2:00 amIt has overall been an extremely reliable vehicle. I live in Alaska and I travel often 150 miles one way at a stretch. The highway can be very lonely in the winter months (I carry a cell phone in case I need it, often times it is of no use to me do to the mountains blocking reception!) Four wheel drive is a must here! I use it all the time on slick roads and off road along beaches gathering clams or along the river here in extremely deep, soft, sand to fish. The only negative thing I have encountered with the vehicle was the oil cooler hoses were leaky and I had trouble getting one due to a nation wide backorder issue.

excellent, but very bad. - 1996 Chevrolet Blazer
By thomasde - May 6 - 2:00 amSeems that what this vehicle does well, it does very well, and what it does poorly it does very poorly. I bought the vehicle with the extended road trip in mind, and it eats up highway miles very well. The car is very confortable, the seats provide good back support and the highway ride is quite smooth. Also, the fuel economy is as good as it gets for a mid-sized SUV. However, I have replaced my most of my front-end and cooling system components. Also, the car is too narrow and hence, too unstable, making city driving difficult and wind treacherous.

Approaching 1/4 MILLION miles... - 1996 Chevrolet Blazer
By Milnecat - March 24 - 2:00 amYes, you read that right...this car has 238,000 miles...on the original engine and the original transmission! Yes, it has received extensive repairs to support these highway miles...but the car still looks & runs great! I just pulled over a ton of trailer (and furniture) up 7-8% grades without a problem...no overheating, no hesitation! All accessories work. This truck was built right!

GOOD BANG FOR YOUR BUCK - 1996 Chevrolet Blazer
By FELLFORANGELEYEZ - March 10 - 2:00 ambought it used, own it for 3+ years. no major problems. handles off-road well. thick snow and mud are no problem. rear seat is not comfortable, if you are taller your knees are even with your chin. the only good seat is the driver. front passenger needs better leg room. needs better stereo arrangement, steering wheel controls for radio, cruise control.

this man will NEVER drive another Chevy - 1996 Chevrolet Blazer
By witherspoon75 - March 5 - 2:00 amThis vehicle was the poorest bult automobile I have ever owned. Since puchase date(Oct. 1999) I have replaced TWO, yes two transmissions (first at 72k, second at 94k). Each one falling just out of warrenty coverage of course. I have also replaced TWO, yes two radiators (first at 62k, second at 115k). Not done yet, oh no, not by a long shot. The air conditioning worked for the first two months I owned the vehicle. Afok BEST ADVICE_DO NOT BUY THIS VEHICLE!

Leaks more oil than Exxon Valdez - 1996 Chevrolet Blazer
By Waterdog - February 9 - 2:00 amI love this vehicle, but I cant get it to stop leaking oil. Changed the oil lines, sent to the dealer twice. Still leaks oil from somewhere. If it wasnt for that, it would be perfect.
