Maybe im just an idiot and maybe its beause i worked in the heat all day, but i dont really understand what you meant by this, lol.

I probably could've worded it better. So i'll explain.

I personally think the Tahoe is a better vehicle, first off. They both have sub par interiors, but the blazer's offering is saddening.

You're planning on dropping at least a few thousand dollars into the blazer. You'll never get that money back when it comes to resale. After market parts just don't fetch much when it comes time to move on.

Now theres the tahoe, its a better vehicle (i think i could argue that point easily). So you could take that money you were going to drop into the blazer and pick up the tahoe instead. You'd have a great vehicle stock, wouldn't have to worry about the maintenance involved with an airride system, and would see your money again because you'd be putting it into something that will hold its value.

having air suspension like that is very impractical and not good at all for a daily driver in any area that gets more than 3inches of snow at a time lol

I was thinking of just seeing how much work it would be to get the airrida taken out and swap it with a regular suspension. I love this car for some reason, and the last extreme blazer i looked into had 59k miles and the guy was asking 11k (it was also stock). But im going to think about it for the next few days. Thanks for the input tho.

You would be eating a good deal of money. Just get a stock extreme.
