The unfortunate truth is if your drive is 80 miles round trip, it'd be more economical to drive your Camaro than the Blazer. I think I got 16mpg in my 2000 GMC Jimmy (same car, just rebadged). Plus an older vehicle with more miles is going to have more wear and tear that will need to be maintained... I understand not wanting to put the wear on the Camaro, and for $2,000 you're in a good spot, but don't be surprised if the new DD becomes a money pit.
