What would you pay for this?

Looking at buying a 1995 Chevy S-10 Blazer. Only problem I have with it is it has 181K on it. A replacement 4.3L would cost about $500, for one with a little over 50K on it. If I didn't want to buy it outright I could do payments for like $100 a month for a 4 year term. The lot is asking $3,950 for it.

Those are strong motors. Mine had 227,000 and i could still spin my tires like nothing. All depends how it was cared for...

those over size tires probably don't help engine/transmission/suspension wear

i paid 1800 for my 2dr chevy blazer. same color. just as nice. and had 180,000, but the whole front end had been replaced, new ball joints, cv joints, axel, all the important stuff.

Do the 4.3s really have any pep? I drove one of the 4 bangers last time and man it was super slow, like slower than my XB or Tracker

From what I saw, it was clean, and it sounded fine. Drove great, but the mileage doesn't sit with me too well, seeing it was probably a teenage/college kid that had this.

My girlfriend saw this one, liked it, and showed me. I like it, and wouldn't mind having it.

Probably not, but if the motor does go out, the lot said they would replace it, free of labor costs, as long as I supplied the motor.

You probably bought from a private seller. All wholesale lots are more expensive than a private seller. Did yours have a salvage title?

I'm going to offer $2,500 for it, and see what they say.

I don't plan on it, but if it breaks down within a month or two, and I was paying on it, I wouldn't have to continue to pay on it. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif
