The second-generation S-10 Blazer debuted for the 1995 model year, replacing its boxy predecessor with rounded, modern styling. Available in 2-door and 4-door configurations, its standard 4.3L Vortec V6 was a major draw. A significant refresh in 1998 introduced a new front fascia, an updated interior, and standard 4-wheel disc brakes on most models, further refining the popular SUV.
Today, the Blazer's appeal is driven by 90s nostalgia and its straightforward mechanicals. Collectors gravitate toward the 2-door models, with the factory-lifted ZR2 off-road package being the most desirable variant. The ZR2 featured a wider track, 31-inch tires, and Bilstein shocks, making it a capable trail rig right off the showroom floor. Its manageable size and simple V6 make it a practical and serviceable modern classic.
The market for these Blazers is broad, with an average sale price just under $10,000. While many are sold as affordable used transportation, pristine, low-mileage examples can fetch over $30,000. These top-tier sales are almost always for well-preserved ZR2s or high-spec LT 4-door models, indicating a strong enthusiast demand for the best examples.
Buying Tips
- Check for rust thoroughly, especially in the rocker panels, cab corners, lower fenders, and rear frame rails near the leaf spring shackles.
- The 4.3L V6 is known for intake manifold gasket leaks, which can mix coolant and oil. Also, check for failing fuel injectors, often called the 'spider' system, which can cause rough running.
- On 4x4 models, test the engagement of the four-wheel drive. The vacuum-actuated front differential can fail, leading to flashing 4WD lights and a system that won't engage.
- Interiors are known for wear. Look for cracked dashboards, worn driver's seat bolsters, sagging headliners, and check that all power accessories, especially window regulators, function correctly.
Prices range from around $400 for project vehicles to over $31,000 for exceptional, low-mileage examples.
