'84 S-10 Blazer w/2.8L that my brother and I had for 4 years (for me from senior yr. at H.S. to 3rd yr. at UConn. Went through 4 transmissions from 2 different local shops w/good reputations. One actually did me the favor of $h!tting the bed while still under warranty. No towing, no hard off-roading, no plowing, certainly no racing. Just a P.O.S. design-wise.

I remember when my father first found it we were so psyched, 4x4, A/C, cloth, power everything. Compared to our parentally supplied beat up F100 and F150 it was practically a luxury car.
