It's a Blazer....its not a Bronco
 

Everywhere I go its the same thing. Now the FedEx driver does it. Agggh. I had to share. You guys know the struggle.

Hahaha! That is a classic slap in the face!! Love it.

Nice. You should ask him why he's not wearing his brown shorts next time you see him.


I stopped at the Subway in my town a couple months back, driving the K/5. Two young high school kids working at the time...the one is like "cool car, what is that?"

The other kid about jumped the first kid's azz, and was like "DUDE, that's a K/5 Blazer!"

Color me impressed. I didn't think many of the younger guys gave a crap about our old junk anymore :)

I had a guy at a convenience store saying how much he loved mine except...

He kept calling it a K/4. Didn't know how to correct him on that.

My wife's father.....every single friggin time anything comes up about either of them......I am waiting for him to call my C20 an F250! Young ones are starting to dig these things though. My '88 K5 is my DD and in the past month I've had 4-5 younger dudes in various vehicles beside me at a light, passing me, in a parking lot, whatever either comment something like, "That is an awesome.......truck." As well as ones give me a 'thumbs up' and a big smile while moving or sitting at a light.

It's starting to get where you have to be kinda impressed if a kid even knows what a Bronco is. Hard to imagine that they haven't made the Blazer or Bronco in almost 20 years. I was with my neighbors and we saw a white 90s Bronco and I made an OJ reference and his teenage son was totally blank faced as to what that was.

What bugs me is people calling a Jimmy a Blazer or people using "Blazer" to cover both. Especially GM guys. Yeah, it's a PIA to say or type Blazers & Jimmys (shew, I'm tired), but that's why all you have to say is "K/5" and you have both covered

Re: It's a Blazer....its not a Bronco
 

Now you're just getting nit-picky! lol

Re: It's a Blazer....its not a Bronco
 

Well no, not exactly. The GMC Jimmy 4x4 is a K/1500, the Chevy Blazer is a K/5. I know that the only difference was the trim level, grille, MSRP and 4 vs 2 headlights, but GMC didn't badge the Jimmy as a K/5, not even a ''K/750'' [which would be the mathematically correct designation if a K/10 = K/1500].
All that being said, I sometimes [perhaps sarcastically] refer to my own K/750 as "The Blazer", especially if talking to someone who wouldn't know the difference.

Try having a hood like mine. Makes even more people think its a Bronco. I also used to own a Bronco that was nearly the same color as my Blazer. Talk about adding to the confusion!
