I've had this 1997 S-10 Blazer purchased new. It now has 112,000 miles on it. Things done/ replaced, beyond routine maintenance, and oil change every 3-4,000 miles: Alternator 40k Water Pump 56k A/C compressor 80k Transmission 80k Wiper ctrl module 80k
Tires were replaced at 68k. The Michelins on there now still have good tread life.
This vehicle is 2 door, 2wd, 4.7 Vortex V6, cloth interior, manual windows, A/C, AM/FM Cassette, cruise. In other words mid- level trim and accessories.
Debating to keep going or get rid of it. As you can see from the replaced items, there have been some issues. The transmission was setting a "slip" code, and the dealer replaced it under the extended warranty. I figure that'll go at least another 80k.
Will need tires and brakes soon. Dexcool should be replaced soon, hopefully the cooling system/ radiator won't need replacing despite it running Dexcool.
Conments on longevity on like vehicles? So far it's held up well, body whise. No rattles, etc. Interior is in good shape, moderate wear well within the years/ miles at this point.
Driving is mixed City/Hwy, say 65% city.
