lol yup...ill get some pics to you if you want..TTT
Fullsize blazers are nice, and the big broncos have realiable drivetrains with the 5.0, and are relativley cheap. I've actually thought about a bronco for my next truck, since they are SFA and real easy to lift and get big meats.

hmmm, well im gonna bring my thread back from the dead.
anyway, im kinda looking at 2 door tahoes......anyone know anything about em? like what years they came with 4x4, what years were better than others, any weaek/strong points, what they should cost, im really leanin heavy towards one of these.

up to 98 they are all good, 96+ has the vortec motor which moved the hp from ~200 to ~250. Stout trucks, only thing you need to really look at is the tranny, 4L60Es aren't the best in full size vehicles.

What do you want to do with this rig? Go offroading? Haul things? Or just drive around town?

Agreed.. 96+ Tahoe's are great trucks..

damn, its been a while since ive been on
anyway, the plan for the truck would basically be a daily driver in college so it needs to be reliable for daily driving and highway trips (bout 450-500 miles round trip) every so often. but i also want something that i can play with in the dirt every so often
