Mr. Metalhead ◊ 2006-06-29 20:05	It's a Blazer without the top.
qwerty_86 ◊ 2006-06-30 05:39	Blazers are SUVs. Plus "K5" means it has 4X4. -- Last edit: 2006-06-30 05:39:59
firebird86 ◊ 2006-06-30 05:58	as Qwerty86 stated , the Blazer is the body design, it is an SUV, its also available in 2wheel drive, The K-5 code indicates 4X4 drivetrain.
BluesmobilerMCMLXXIV ◊ 2011-07-06 23:05	As Mahoney said: "Get the truck off the beach!". He should have told him "Get the truck outta here" or "Truck off" -- Last edit: 2011-07-06 23:06:06
Neptune ◊ 2011-07-07 03:20	When did California stop using the blue plates with yellow letters/numbers?
an_unusual_eye ◊ 2011-07-07 03:57	looks like the sunrise plate came out as an option in 1982 along side the yellow on blue style, and became the standard plate in 1987 in place of the yellow on blue. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vehicle_registration_plates_of_California

jettalover ◊ 2012-04-19 05:30	Removed side mirror for closeups of driver, didn't put back on for ending stunt. Weird aftermarket antenna mount. -- Last edit: 2012-04-19 05:30:14
Neptune ◊ 2012-04-19 22:44	It has (or had) permanent four-wheel drive. For the beach scene it should have been in High Loc mode with the center differential locked. As recommended for driving in sand terrain. However a professional stunt/off road driver could probably drive the 2.3 ton four-by-four through sand in just High mode with the center differential unlocked. The rear differential lock (if equipped) would keep torque from being misused by the rear wheels should one start slipping (spinning) and also help guard against torque reduction at the front wheels. The one used for the jump may have been a prepped stand-in. Either way, it had a aftermarket antenna as the Blazer did not have a factory audio system (which was optional at that time). If it had a factory installed audio system, there would a hidden antennae imbedded into the laminated windshield. Dual aerial lines were used and ran up the center of the windshield and parted ways (one left and one right) near the top.
