A 2WD blazer is already an emasculated version of the 4WD variety. I think the skirts work well on it.

Re: Skirts on a 2wd Blazer?

Did anyone notice the $28K asking price? I think they need a $20K deduction for putting those stupid skirts on it!

CPNE, we are ignoring you...

It makes sense to drive something that attracts women. I'd hate it if my truck attracted men!
