My first ride was an '87 Silverado in the late 90's. and my Dad had a mint '89 Blazer a few years ago. Loved that thing but started having significant issues and as a 17 year old did not have the funds or skill to fix. Many great trips to the woods.

Fall off from rot... the truck was sooo rotted.i blew the reverse drum in the tranny n it was just took much to fix. I have now a 2004 gmc Sierra crew cab 4x4 that I had for almost 12 years.
