My Uncle had 2 K5 Blazers, an ‘83 and a ‘94. Ran both into the ground and they rusted out befor the 350s even hiccuped. He only sold the ‘94 in 2007 with close to 200k on the odometer. You could do anything you wanted in a Jeep with the old K5. Right off the showroom floor you could do serious off roading and there was/still is tons of aftermarket goodies to lift ‘em and conquer Moab with them.
Ok, just to be clear, 1999 to 2018 is how many years? That would be 27 so you you are CORRECT 27 is NOT 30

LOL seriously??????????

The Blazer in its last NAMED model was off of the S/T platform not C/K. Sorry about the facts.

When this front end looks more like an actual 6th gen refresh camaro than the actual refresh. I love those headlights, they're way more aggressive than the 2019 camaro headlights

Yes you are correct. But the point I was trying to make was the the last Blazer was introduced in 1983 on the S/T platform. There was no 1999 K Blazer.

Bad math on a quick post :(

I like the Camaro interior and the exterior styling. Crossovers have never been my thing but glad other people like them. Nicely done.

What the hell are you talking about? Math, how does it work?

Please go back and read your 1st post. You said the full size "K5 Blazer" was replaced in the 1980's. You were wrong. We both posted the correct time line for those body styles. Then you come back with some crazy common core math. LOL back at ya.

There WAS a 1999 K Tahoe.

That’s my point.

My point is this is not a massive off road champ that will confuse anyone. The last vehicle with the Blazer name was an S/T not C/K. I doubt GM has many concerns other than tnecquality of the vehicle......land it is fairly tight.

Excuse my math but a 1982 or 3 vehicle that was replaced by the Trailblazer is not likely to confuse very many folks.

Hmmmm just saw this todayand thought I had a replacement for my Tahoe.

Now I'm kind of thinking it would be a replacement for a Traverse if I had one.

Why do you keep bringing up the S-10 Blazer? The K5 Blazer was in production from 1969-1995 and the K5 chassis until 1999.

The S-10 Blazer chassis was produced from 1982-2005 and it was THAT Blazer that morphed into the TrailBlazer

The K5 Blazer became today’s Tahoe.

Two completely different, unrelated chassis, even though Chevrolet used the same “Blazer” name on both for a while.

If a Chevy enthusiast talks to you about a “Blazer” they are talking about the K5. They will typically clarify the smaller one calling it the “S-10 Blazer”

Big difference.

You’re on website with a few Chevy enthusiasts more than just Camaros. Might want to brush up on the lingo

If GM was calling this new SUV the TrailBlazer I don’t thing the enthusiasts would have such a problem. It’s definitely more S-10 Blazer/TrailBlazer than K5 Blazer. That’s the whole point.
