Didn’t you have a Corvette last week too? Yes I did, that one I’d own, this one just fit the theme.	This is a real Blazer, unlike Chevy’s latest iteration which is good for blazing Starbuck’s drive thrus.	Even though the auction text says this gold, it looks as orange as the K5 Blazer to the left.

If this doesn’t just scream rich gentleman’s sports car I don’t know what does. Too bad I’m neither rich nor a gentleman.	An interesting Lowes connection, but I’d replace the word Lowes in the side stripe with Brian because I’m a renegade.	Had a ’63 panel van on Guam, shipped it back, but junked it in Tennessee. Wonder if this is it resurrected?

If one could actually sell their soul to the devil this would be the car that could make me do it.	If I had more money than sense rather than the other way around this could work for me.	If I was just a little more eccentric than I am this would make a nice Miata replacement vehicle.

I almost chose the 2022 Ram 1500 TRX Crew Cab 4×4 for all the spots. The supercharged 6.2-liter Hemi V8 fills the Sport’s criteria, 4×4 for Off-Road & the heated leather seats with the extra row of seats for luggage for Touring.
