I want this truck...
This is a nice looking 2wd Blazer. I would look so nice sitting in the driveway next to my Orange '72 4wd, but I can't afford it and my wife would kill me! I really need to win the lottery!

How bad will the wife kill you? How long will she kill you for?
I say buy it and just bite the bullet. You'll forget all about the wife killing you once you're sitting in the driver seat and taking a ride on a nice sunny day with the top off. Last edited by Alexis; 04-27-2005 at 02:37 PM. |

It's been on ebay before (a month or two ago.)
Unfortunately, the timing isn't right for us, so there is no way it's gonna happen. Look how nice they would look together!

Well someone here needs to get it ! My wife would seriously leave me if I brought it home, I just bought a new GSXR-1000 that I pick up friday so I think I have her at her limit with me.

I don't know about you guys, but if my wife is not happy, I'm not happy. She makes sure of that

You`ll know one by asking them to go to bed.If she heads for the truck,it`s a sure thing.

The second date I went on with my now Wife was to a truck show.I had a custom painted tractor trailer.She helped me polish the wheels...well she will tell You that She and my Parents polished the aluminum,while I bullsh%^ed with passerbys!Within 8 months we were married.We don't have kids,so that wasn't the reason. I have 2 suburbans,She is the one that wanted the lifted Blazer.
