Chevrolet Blazer Used Auto
Thomas Champeval asked:
Buying a used Chevrolet Blazer SUV may be a good choice as it is considered among the best medium sized used SUV’s available. It is capable of carrying heavy loads and negotiates difficult terrain off-road with ease. However, it is also soft, comfortable and civilized used vehicle; these are benefits of its rigid chassis, sophisticated suspension and powerful brakes. They are available with curtain airbags to enhance the protection of the head area.
When considering buying a used SUV you may want to find one that has the excellent StabiliTrak stability system from GM, which is now become standard across the whole used Blazer range, StabiliTrak helps the driver maintain control, thereby reducing or eliminating the problems in handling during emergency situations, which has to be a big plus for any used vehicle.
When you purchase a used Blazer, you will be amazed how stable, maneuverable, and well-controlled it is even on very winding roads at speed. It is also quite capable in the off road environment when it is equipped with its sophisticated system of four-wheel-drive, these are perhaps some of the main reasons it is such a popular used SUV.
For added saftey the StabiliTrak electronic stability system from GM is now standard on all newer used Blazer models. This system uses a full set of sensors and controls movement coupled with actuators on the accelerator and brakes the wheels on an individual basis, to detect and reduce any involuntary change in the direction of the vehicle.
Other safety features include dual-stage air bags for driver and front seat passenger, which inflate with less intensity in crashes at a lower speeds. The seat belt pre-tensioners that tighten belts to avoid the body being loose at the time of airbag activation. The OnStar system includes Automatic Crash Notification System, which automatically transmits data from the scene of the accident to emergency services, this is a quality used vehicle feature that you should take into account when buying a used vehicle.
A pre-owned Blazer is larger than the Tahoe and sets the standard with its superior handling and stability. The long wheelbase adds a substantial cargo space and seating for seven passengers. Used auto dealers usually offer the Blazer comes with an extraordinarily smooth and modern Vortec 4200 engine six-cylinder in line engine, which the first choice power unit for many used SUV enthusiasts.
Equipped with the V8, a 2WD Blazer can tow up to 7000 pounds, the standard Vortec 4200 found on most used car dealership lots is a 4.2L, six-cylinder in line that generates 291 horsepower. The Vortec 5300 5.3 liter V8 with valves at the helm, is qualified with 300 horsepower, 330 lb / ft of torque, all used Blazer SUV’s come with standard four-speed automatic transmission.
Chevrolet says that the Blazer can go from 0-60 mph in 5.7 seconds, which is fast for such a large and powerful used vehicle. So don’t delay get down to the used car dealership and see what they have available in the exiting Blazer range.
