Blazer Truck

I posted a link to this one quite some time back, but it's still for sale. What boggles my mind is the price. It started at $10,000 back at the end of last summer and has steadily dropped since then, at least until recently. The "truck" was just posted again for $3,700. Several weeks ago, it was posted as low as $2,500. Last week, it was $3,000. Why is this, ah, thing going up in value again. I'd think after more than 6 months of trying to sell it, he'd be dropping the price more.

Re: Blazer Truck

Well, maybe he is trying to play the field?? At $10k it is too high at $2500 I'da thought it would've sold!? It is pretty neat looking, if it was done right, then it would be a decent work truck at the very least $2500 is a steal, $3700 is well $1200 more, so I am sure a solid offer with cash could get it for $2500?? It is after all a 3/4 ton 4X4 no mater what, right?

Re: Blazer Truck

It's interesting, but given the way the body work looks in the pictures, I'd be worried how the frame was stretched. In his earlier ads, he said it was a blazer stretched to a pickup.

I was thinking $2,000, but I'm kind of cheap!

Re: Blazer Truck

With all that snow up there I am shocked he still has it?! I figured at face value $2500 isn't bad, but I'd be all over it before I spent a dime on it. The top T-top thing, made me think whoever did the work, thought about the cab, flopping around with no roof, so it "MIGHT" be OK, but I'd still fine tothed comb it?!

Re: Blazer Truck

Proportions wise, it looks bad with the top off but good with it on.

Re: Blazer Truck

A lift and some bigger tires would help the look.

Re: Blazer Truck

It`s definately a Bluck.At least that`s the word that comes to my mind.

Re: Blazer Truck

Bluck isn't the word that comes to my mind - that "whatever it is" just doesn't do it for me.

Re: Blazer Truck

I'm so sick of finding that thing in searches - I wish someone would buy it so it would go away

Re: Blazer Truck

LOL.. Dana, I pondered it for about 2 minutes when he was down to $2900. As it could be a good start to a project I have in mind.. but I never did call..

Re: Blazer Truck

It is the most retarted POS I have seen. I search the list for Blazers on a daily basis and I am tired of seeing it. Once it drops down in price again some of us locals should buy it and part the thing out.
