pressed to find a better example anywhere! Please contact us today

The Blazer was designed and marketed to compete with International
Harvester Scout and the Ford Bronco. Both of these were originally
aimed at the short Jeep CJ series, which were much smaller than
other trucks. The innovation of the Blazer was to simply offer a
shortened pickup truck, which both increased interior space, and
lowered the cost of production with a shared platform. The Blazer
quickly became popular. For the first time, it married the off-road
capabilities of the Scout with the "luxury" features like air
conditioning and automatic transmissions routinely available on
pickup trucks. By 1970, the Blazer was already outselling both of
its older rivals. Ford, Dodge, and even Jeep would counter with
similar shortened pickups, with the Dodge Ramcharger and Jeep
Cherokee. It also came as a convertible.
