    I have had an RS for about a year now and absolutely love it. If your only getting 12 mpg there is something seriously wrong. And why did you not get the upgraded wheels? Should have gone AWD which has a sport mode and handles much better. Buy the right car for the way you drive and you will not have so many complaints.

    I have a 2020 Blazer LT and we love it! The only complaint that I have is, come to think of it I really don't have any complaints! Last July we went from Canton Ohio down to Tampa/St. Pete for vacation with our adult children and their kids. Traveling I-77 South through the mountains of West By God Virginia to I-95 South and on into Florida, we averaged 29.4 MPG for the trip down with our V-6 engine. At one point during the flatter section of road we actually had a 50 mile stretch of road averaging 33,6 MPG! Handling through the mountains was EXCELLENT! The ride was very comfortable and surprisingly smooth! One of the quietest cars I've ever owned and at 73 years old I've owned quite a few! I am a fan!

    I had an older Blazer when I was in my early 20's and absolutely loved them! I was actually super happy they decided to bring them back. With the Camaro package on them, they do tend to make me feel a bit unsafe driving next to one. That's all I want to look at and super excited to get rid of my Hyundai Tucson and get my ass back into a Blazer.
    And by the way, your Blazer is an easy sell for me....absolutely beautiful and will look forward to hearing more about yours. Tell me anything, because it can't be as bad as finding your Tucson on fire 2 days after getting it back from a heater core repair. FML 🙄

    My pet peeves on 2019 2LT are: Far too much cheap looking hard plastic for interior panels & door panels. Lack of any trim on rear door panels; black is the only interior color.
    Incandescent turn indicators front & rear, as well as brake lights; 1940's technology when Chevy is completely able to do FULL LED's, as seen on Traverse. Blazer's rear lighting is "claimed" to be LED, but they never mention except for brake lights & turn indicators. What's missing is the "😎,cool factor". I wish those bulbs were easy to replace, but 2.5 hours labor is required for each side. You must remove wheels, mud guards, fender liners, rear body quarters, bumper covers & then you can remove the light housing. Who's gonna do this & get it all back on right? 😵
    For those who state it doesn't matter & they had to cut costs somewhere, these Blazers top well above $50,000 😳 with all this cheap plastic & old fashioned technology.
    Keep in mind this is what I noted on the 2019s. The 2020-21 models haven't improved on ANY of this. Is GM learning or are WE learning what NOT to buy in the future?

If this blazer had all LED this would look so futuristic and it does matter! They could even do their turn signal sequential... imagine those lambo style tail lights sequential.

    I have a '20 Blazer 2LT, V6 AWD that I bought used with 53K miles in early '23. The MAIN thing I don't like is also the gas mileage, at about 25 highway (i drive very little in stop-go city). This is NO surprise to me, the vehicle weighs 4300lbs and has 308 HP! The other thing is that the 2LT does not have HEATED MIRRORS (even the CHEAPEST Kia POS has these) and no power passenger seat. It also does not have: blind spot monitor; back up sensor; lane deviation sensor; AEB , etc. These electronic "gizmos" I don't care about. I do miss the power tailgate option! Aside from this, I LOVE the vehicle. In the year of ownership, I have had ZERO issues and all (3) recalls are closed. The body is TIGHT, panel fit is VERY good, I have NO rattles OR CREAKS. If anything, I would like to have AT LEAST 50 MORE horses in the "power barn"!!!!!

    I barely gas it around corners in sport n the torque steer kicks in🤣 I like the torque steer bc I think it’s hilarious! We got the L(2.5)model and sometimes when in L I’ve experienced that sometimes it won’t up shift nor downshift, I put it in D and back in L it still won’t up/down shift until maybe 2 more times and I have to press the +/- button smoothly for it to shift, the interior panels rattle a lot with the bass and I don’t have the Bose Audio system option since it’s the cheap model(I use Spotify and another app that gives my music extra bass, yea I’m that kinda person) but I don’t max out the bass n at high volumes the bass becomes very raspy & I know obviously I can adjust bass n what not, I give the rattling panel a bang or two it goes away and comes back. Normal driving without sport I get maybe 17 mpgs in a heavy 4 cylinder. Oh and I can’t seem to get the cruise control to work, might just be me that doesn’t know how to program it bc I’m sure the CC isn’t defective, hope it’s not. And lastly I can’t turn off the Auto/Start stop feature but in models above the “ L “ have a button to turn it off, I have to release the brake and press on it again bc I get annoyed when it turns off( when A/C is on it won’t turn on the feature) It was a dealer tester car with 6k miles, light curb damage to rear right wheel, scratches in the paint when we bought it, it was one of the very few Blazers In ORANGE COUNTY, CALIFORNIA (September 2019), and which is why we got the Blazer, it’s a bit in expensive to lease than new ones bc it had miles on it.

    Wheels can be changed. I think what you mean by 12-15 and 17-20 is driving somewhere like LA. In gridlock you're probably getting the 12-15 and you're considering an 8 mile beltway with stop and go as highway. Nothing but electric does well in those kinds of conditions. Most people consider 20 mile plus long trips with zero stop and go as highway miles. I've figured that out from reading a lot of reviews over the years.. the difference in perception or concepts. One other thing I'd point out is one California trip we rented a certain car with a 4 cylinder and 3 speed auto transmission and got 31 mpg with it. But it was a federal emissions car. The relative visited had one and his would only get 27-28. California (and similar) emissions absolutely do cause mileage and performance decrease.

    2019 all red black out rs owner of 2 years. I have the sporty all black chevy rims on mine. You can choose from multiple different rims types when buying new or used.
    Not sure why you are getting such poor gas mileage. I had to fill up twice a month in my old 2003 Malibu but now I only fill up about once a month in my blazer. I drive mostly in awd sport mode & I often push the 50 to 70mph speed jump to its limits. 1.2 seconds avg 🔥
    I didn't even know the rs came in front wheel only drive. I have front wheel drive, 4x4, all wheel sport mode, hill & towing modes on mine.
    Paddle shifters would be AWESOME!! But on the blazer you can always up & down shit with buttons on the gear shifter.
    I have had some experiences with torque steer. But my wheels are wide as heck & the blazer has a heck of a launch so I expected some. Mine mostly stays straight at the light & wow it does goooo when you push the gas in sport mode.
    The only time I had any rattling noise was a little on the front passenger side when I have my bose sound system at max. It was a loose trim clip.
    No problems with the infotainment center as of yet other than Bluetooth sometimes not showing the song I'm playing.
    But I did sometimes have a problem with the adaptive cruise control not turning on. Turns out when the vehicle is started the camera sometimes doesn't focus properly because of its location in the window. It only happened to me 8 x in 2 years. Turns out mine was pick up the tennis ball i had hanging when it was trying to focus the camera on start up. But others have had that problem because the camera was picking up something in the window on start up. Might have been the plastic around the camera. For some reason replacement of the camera is only a semi fix. The only known permanent fix I know of is to replace the front window.
    Finally, yes..many necks get broken watching it go by. Everyone loves how it looks. Compliments every day about it. FYI...I didn't design it, but I'll pass the praise to the people that did. Even though it is just basically a rip off of the camaro. Interior layout, front design, hood, side panels. It's a camaro on steroids that skips leg days so it's slower.
    So far it's the best vehicle I ever owned. But it does have its issues.
    My main problem is they way the stupid transmission shifts. No need for so many gears. Every pause in speed that has me down to 10mph will just lead to a launch to 20 by slightly pushing the gas. Have to ever so gently press the gas to accelerate slowly.
    I give the chevy blazer 8/10. I'm sure I will find out it's flaws someday. But until then, I'm loving it.
    That's all I got to say about that.

      That's what we thought. Luckily they are much better now

    Dude you want flappy dappy paddle shifters? This is an A2B, it's not a sports car, and a V6 does not a sports car make. my suggestion is get a 2004 Ford Freestar with a 3.9 in it. They kick ASS bro. Have fun for 1500 bucks.

    This version pretty much has the same mpg as the final gen s10 based blazer

      It does get better then what we showed in the video. That was just what it was showing on the dash at the time

    Seeing this vehicle makes me glad I’m a car guy, more specifically, a 2019 Cruze LS guy. No offense, it's definitely a good looking vehicle.
