Ive fallen in love with this work horse - 2004 Chevrolet Blazer
By habanero84 - December 7 - 9:38 amI bought this car cheap roughly 6 years ago with the intention of just using it for the snow. Now I dont think I ever want to trade it in. Its got 140k miles on it and the engine still purrs like a kitten. The interior is comfortable and the controls are simple (perfect!). Best of all: this thing is a god in the snow. For people looking for a great snow vehicle, you cant beat this suv. Nothing scares me while Im driving this. I abuse this car massively - driving over curbs, off-roading, putting the "top heavy" feature to the test on these curvy roads, and treating it like my own personal toboggan in the snow. Did I mention it also has tons of space for hauling? Love love love it.

Love it!! - 2004 Chevrolet Blazer
By bfamily2 - October 28 - 11:25 amLove our Blazer, it has survived: front collision, hitting a tree, then the tree falling on it, hulling trailer loads of wood, pulling rocks and stumps, getting stuck in the snow to the point the front bumper was ripped off. We have the opinion that you buy a vehicle to serve you and this SUV has taken everything we have had to offer just fine. After everything it is still our main vehicle 2 car seats fit pretty nice in the back (you canÂ’t put the front seat all the way back). The interior doesnÂ’t stain or scratch very easy. We do a lot of traveling and we feel very safe in it. We are excited to see how many Blazers make it well past 200,000 miles, we will be keeping ours.

You Get What You Pay For - 2004 Chevrolet Blazer
By BlackKnight - July 20 - 10:24 amThere is a reason that the 04 Chevy Blazer is affordable and that is due to the reliability of it. The style remains unchanged as you are unable to tell an 04 from a 2000. Ive had to put brakes numerous times, ball joints, engine sensor (2x), oil coil line, smell on anti freeze despite no leaks, leak on driver side floor. In addition the 4WD switch went out and apparently that is fairly common as well. I perform regular maintenance but after purchasing in 06 with 25K miles on it, I have estimated that I have put close to $3000 in repairs, parts, and labor. That is conservative. The trade in value is horrible and I will need to keep it until the last loan payment to get money in trade

ZR-2 is made for ANYTHING! - 2004 Chevrolet Blazer
By Ferris777 - November 18 - 8:17 pmWhether its hot and humid or snowing inches at a time, the ZR-2 Blazer is made to have fun and look good doing it. After owning some jeeps here and there I found out that while the off road performance was outstanding the crudeness of the ON road and the lack of comfort and features was too much to stand. The ZR-2 offers the best of both worlds. While providing confidence on the trails, the interior and suspension will take care of you on the way there. The seats in the back can be set down allowing for huge cargo space...and as the owner of a English Mastiff...I need it. If your looking at a small, fun to drive SUV that will last a long time, the check out the ZR-2...I think youll like it.

A Well Proven Durable Truck based SUV - 2004 Chevrolet Blazer
By Garth - July 12 - 5:05 pmChevrolet based this compact SUV on their S10 pickup. This means that it is a truck based SUV which is some what of a rarity in todays world. The down side is that this adds weight but to me, I plan to own this truck for a long time and the frame offers some great jacking points. The power trane is based on the Chevrolet 350 V8 minus 2 cylinders so the basic design has millions of development miles under its belt. From a service stand point, the push rod motor eliminates the need to replace a cam belt which is an expensive requirement on many of its competitors. The automatic transmission offers electronic control which helps with drivability. The truck is a proven design which I prefer.

Good Value Especially When Used - 2004 Chevrolet Blazer
By Stape - May 28 - 9:49 pmThis SUV is quiet and comfortable. The front bucket seats are soft and very comfortable. GM improved the engine design over the years and my 04 has port fuel injection which helps the throttle response and mileage. Power is adequate. The 4 speed auto tranny is well proven being developed in 1997. It has electronic control. I added a tranny oil cooler to extend life. The car has good visibility. I am impressed with the under carriage fiber glass covers, which will be useful for keeping snow off critical parts although they will not offer the protection of steel components. The Billstein shocks are outstanding! Front brakes with ceramic pads and dual piston nice with ABS! Average stereo. Buy!!

solid - 2004 Chevrolet Blazer
By busdt - March 21 - 7:23 amThis has been a very reliable truck. Great in bad weather and off road driving. The cargo space is nice with the seats down.

HOOD - 2004 Chevrolet Blazer
By BOB - March 6 - 9:48 pmI bought my 2004 Blazer used and I love it, the beefy tires and the fold down seats are great, I got a manual trans and I love it shifts smooth and the 190 hp isnt to bad either.

I am a happy Blazer owner and would serioulsy recommend this vehicle to anyone looking for a fun and reliable suv.

Shocked it was made by Chevy - 2004 Chevrolet Blazer
By Xtreme Blaze - July 13 - 8:34 pmI was surprised Chevy could pull something like this out of their minds. I enjoyed it from the second I drove it off the lot. Driver functions in ease with radio station changing to finding a spot to park.
