Found this on craigs list today and bought it.

I have been towing my boat with the wifes S10 Blazer and have been limited on my towing abilities. The guy was about 0.2 miles from my house. Lucky find with good timing.

What do you guys think?

Nice! Sounds like a great deal!
The valve assembly or pump, might cost ya 300-400 new. Which is the way I would go.

Cool. What year is it?

1992
Truck has 222,000 miles on it.

Interesting. Well it definitely was cheap enough. Have you towed yet? Don't expect much more power than the Blazer has. Both engines actually produce about the same amount of power.

Have you towed yet? It should be much more stable!

Have not towed yet. Just got it about two hours ago and boat and trailer are out at the lake.

I am looking for stability and load capacity on this tow vehicle. The Blazer seams to sway quite a bite with our wind while towing.

That you should get.

Nice to see an honest ad on CL! I didn't realize what a cesspool of scam it's become until I car shopped recently.

I also thought that it was kind of a fluke that it was someone that was just down the street from me.

That is nice...would give me a better feeling about the vehicle.

After weeks of living on CL, cars.com, etc., we wound up buying one from a guy who lives a mile away. And, we got a possible line on the next used car when the need comes, because he buys them from his employer as 1-owner fleet cars. Local is SO much better.

Now that's a TOW vehicle!

Congrats on the find!

At that price, well worth picking up as an extra vehicle for towing and hauling. Congrats!

Good looking suburban - congrats on your find.

I've seen a lot of soccermobiles setting around in peoples' yards as of recent. Big fire sale on the big SUVs.
Good find, BTW, and I hope it works well for you.

You will enjoy the stability and extra room. They are a little soft in the rear so if you plan on loading it up you might want to get some overload springs. They help a bunch with the sag and don't affect the ride when you are empty.

Looks really clean, especially for the price.

It is very similar to a '96 I had for a long time. It is a great truck. It is a LOT more vehicle than the S10, like night and day. I assume the engine is a 5.7 (350). What motor is in the S10? The big motor was the 4.3, which is a good motor, but not as powerful as the 5.7. Nothing like a V8.
It looks good, too! let us know how it behaves with the boat behind it. Best of luck.

Sweet looking burb.. Funny what you find just around the corner..good luck with it..

That style Chevy is one of my favorites (a very close second behind the mid 80's trucks). I love the two tone too. I think you'll be pleased with the V8 that is in there, especially since it's a newer version of the original.

For sag in the rear, I would recommend putting some Air Lift air bags in the rear. I had them on one of my trucks and absolutely loved them.

Great deal! Like others have said, soft rear, other than that, great truck!!
