Blazer S-10 is the cars name, Sport is the trim. Sport was the two-door model. So it would be Chevrolet S-10 Blazer Sport/Blazer S-10 Sport. |

Isn't S-10 more a "code" than a model name? |

It is, but a lot of people refer to older Blazers as "S-10s", just like some people call the first egern K5s or whatever. |

Like lots of Mercedes/BMW are refered using their code (E30, W124, etc.) ? |

What makes this a Sport rather than a regular Blazer? The two-door did have a Sport trim level, but just because it's a two-door doesn't mean it's a Sport. The S-10 designation came before the Blazer so it was "S-10 Blazer" which is like a SUV version of the S-10 pickup. The original Blazers also had the truck's name first, but people rarely talk about it with reference to the truck. The most well-known of the older full-size Blazer is probably the K5 Blazer. S-10 and K5 are chassis code as well. |

Its a 1987/93 Chevrolet S-Series 2dr Blazer, Ive never heard of a "Sport" model from The factory. The Sport moniker was applied by the individual dealers to base-entry level "stripped" models. By the way, I sold these new and used for many years. -- Last edit: 2006-06-29 05:00:33 |

? Many company's refer to their 2-door SUVs as "sport." take Ford for example. The Explorer was offered in XLT, XLS, Eddie Bauer, Limited and from 1990 to 2002, the XLS Sport and XLT Sport were the two 2-doors. There was no base Sport because the XLS was the base model. I don't know as much about the Blazer but I do know all mercury Mountaineers and Ford Explorers built in from 1990 to 2002 (first and second generations) were called either XLS (base) or XLT (mid-class) Sport if they were in a two door format. And I know our Blazer is a Sport 4x4 because the paperwork says so and there is a "Blazer Sport" badge with a seperate "4x4" badge located on the pillar seperating the front windows and back windows. I am just going by what I see. |

Most SUVs originally came as two-doors and "SUV" already implies it's a sport utility vehicle. The only reason why they now call them "Sports" is the fact that most of them have turned into a soccar-mom-mobile. |

That doesn't change the fact that almost all the companys from the 90's called their 2-door SUVs "Sport." The Ford Explorer, Mercury Mounatineer, Isuzu Trooper etc. call their two-doors "Sport." Yes, just about every SUV from the late 60's and 1970's were two-doors based on mid-sized trucks. When SUVs started becoming 4-doors with 2-door trims, the usually called the 2-doors "Sport," probably because the origenal Sport Utility Vehicles were 2-doors and therefore they called the new 2-doors Sport. Of course today it is seriously rare to come across a 2-door SUV still in production because they aren't very practical (try getting 3 kids in the back of a Blazer 2-door with 3 Labs), I think the last two door was the 05' Blazer (and didn't it only come in a 2-door version?), and the Explorers and Mountaineers lost their Sport 2-doors in 2002 I beleive. Oh yes, and this is a S-10 Blazer, not an S-series. -- Last edit: 2006-07-01 16:22:21 |

I lost your point. You just pretty much summed up what I said with more words. BTW, SUVs from the '60s and '70s were built on the full-size truck platforms. |
