Auto Revolution's Influence & Impact traces the automotive history of custom car and truck builders. The off-road or hot rod younger brother to the C-10 truck, the Blazer is explored. The Chevrolet Blazer and GMC Jimmy are based on one of the most versatile platforms for adventuring families, racers, and off-road mudders alike. As the C-10 craze grew, so did the Blazer seeing many turn them into roadster-inspired hot rod trucks as well. GM has squandered the Blazer name in the 1990s, with the smaller SUVs taking the name and the CK truck-based Tahoes becoming the most popular. Recently, the Blazer name was brought back, not to compete with the new Ford Bronco, but as a mini crossover SUV that was more a rental car than an off-road rig or hot rod truck. Continuing the Chevrolet/GMC truck history is our dive into the OBS, 88-98 CK trucks, starting with the Sport Truck movement in the next episode.
