I’m the only one with a garage in our family. Lol. Everyone comes to me when they need something done. But parking wise the garage is blazer only.So your family plays that game too!

I was speaking more of the "first one to use it" game. Anytime anyone in the family gets something new everyone tries to use it once before they can. Although usually it's not an entire garage. 
Put a battery in it the other day. Drove it to town, and washed it off and vacuumed it out.
Used it as a fencing rig.
Took it through the cut for shits and giggles.
Used it for checking pivots. That ones stuck.....
Gave my daughter Macke her first Blazer ride today (moved it across the yard).
The other night we took it up the cut, and then turned around and came down. Half way down the hill, my brake pedal went to the floor, and I lost my brakes. Pretty quick ride to the bottom.....
As soon as it leveled out, my brakes were back. I checked the fluid level later. The master cylinder is full. Anyone ever experience that before?

Realized I never posted much from the past couple of years of using it as a farm truck.
The jerk shit right into the door pocket!
He was a nuisance.
Yard birds.
Hauling hay was a mistake. What a mess!!!!
Works fine for hauling trees short distances.

How much of an incline was that? Definitely not something that's happened to me
Pretty steep downhill, but I’ve done it in a lot of my trucks.

Nice build. The rust would annoy me, but it has a certain charm with the fender trim outlining air and oxidized sheet metal. Mostly air.
Yes, the seals are done and they are not pushing the fluid just going through it like in shock absorbers
Ok, I literally laughed out loud over that one. That's funny. So how was the veal for dinner that night?
He made it through the evening.

Crazy that you bumped this. I just got finished going through this thread and fixing all of the dead picture links.
It's parked in my unfinished garage. I need to fix the Quadrajet. It is full of empty feed sacks.

Its current location.

Your new one and this one would look good together!
I love this pic, rooster on the rollbar! And the cat.
Yep! Maybe someday!
Hahaha, I had to go back and look! I didn’t even see the cat the first couple times I looked.I love this pic, rooster on the rollbar! And the cat.
It looks like someone woke the cat up from a good nap.
