Why is the Blazer Back After a Long Layoff?
Chevrolet already had an excellent lineup of SUVs and crossover vehicles, but it has gotten even better with the addition of the 2019 Chevrolet Blazer. Chevy’s lineup already had many great vehicles in its lineup. These included the subcompact crossover Trax, the compact crossover Equinox, the full-sized Suburban, full-sized Tahoe, and the full-sized Traverse, just to name a few. New Midsized Crossover This new Blazer is a midsized crossover. It is utilized to fill the gap that existed between the Traverse and the Equinox, providing Chevy with a great and complete lineup. Not only that, many of us remember the generations of the Blazer that came to us between 1969 and 1972 and later from 1973 to 1991. Back then, the Blazer was based on Chevy’s two-door truck model. The major competition for the Blazer back then was Ford’s Bronco, the Harvester Scout, and the Dodge Ramcharger. What’s New? This new Chevy Blazer is quite a bit different from its namesake, though. The all-new blazer features a four-door, five-passenger midsized crossover design. It is designed with the intention to directly compete with the Ford [...]
2019 Chevy Blazer Specs
If you are in the market for a crossover SUV, the new 2019 Chevy Blazer is definitely worth a closer look. For 2019 Chevy has designed a completely new Blazer as a mid-size crossover SUV — offering the latest and greatest design and technology, but paying homage to the venerable Blazer, originally released in 1969. All the buzz surrounding this completely new vehicle actually led to people lining up to buy the Blazer earlier than its official release date. We actually had one of our leasing consultants speak about it before it was officially released. Chevy obliged by having a soft launch and managing to sell the first 27 units in December 2018. This is a pretty rare occurrence for GM vehicles. Design & Performance The new Blazer starts on a firmer foundation than its predecessors, tossing the old style body-on-frame construction approach for a unibody-constructed platform. This is the same construction used for the GMC Acadia for over a decade. If you take a look at photos of the new Blazer, you might notice that its sporty good looks seem somewhat familiar. You're [...]

Thank you for doing this with me. Why don't you go ahead and just tell our listeners about who you are and what you do here. Lashawn: 00:22 Okay. So my name's Lashawn, I'm the finance manager. I'm one of the two people in our finance department. I secure your financing, do your relevant documents and paperwork, and get you on the road as soon as possible after you finish all the details of your new vehicle. Matt: 00:38 Okay. Oh, perfect. So financing is something that, obviously, is important to a lot of our listeners out there, so I'm glad we can have some of your time. I want to talk about some of the questions that we've been getting on some of our blog posts and things like that. People are wanting to know about the pre-approval process. I guess, first and foremost, is pre-approval necessary? Should they be getting [...]
