![]() Chevy said the front fender vent is a nod to its motorsports history. The rear wheel arches flare over 19-inch wheels on base models, while top-spec SS models roll on 22-inch wheels shod in all-season tires (summer rubber will be an option). ![]() The exterior features a low-slung fast roofline, athletic proportions, and a Camaro-like Coke-bottle design with a sweeping belt line. The Blazer might be the first vehicle in history to be available with all three drive configurations. Confusingly, the RS will offer standard front- or rear-wheel drive-buyers’ choice-and all-wheel drive will be optional. All-wheel drive will come standard on the SS. The 1LT 2LT, and RS models will come with front-wheel drive, and the latter two will offer all-wheel drive as an option. Production will take place in Ramos Arizpe, Mexico, which is where the current Blazer is built. The $65,996 SS model will arrive later in 2023, followed by the base $44,995 1LT and Police Pursuit Vehicle (PPV) in the first quarter of 2024. The four-model lineup will kick off with the mid-trim $47,595 2LT and $51,995 RS models in the summer of 2023. On Monday, the 2024 Chevrolet Blazer EV debuted with up to 320-miles of EPA-estimated range, a starting price of $44,995 (including destination), and a choice of front-wheel-drive, all-wheel-drive, or rear-wheel drive. ![]() It looks like there’s a tree stump or something up there, so I grab a hold of that.(Motor Authority) - With apologies to Burger King, the 2024 Chevrolet Blazer EV will let you “Have It Your Way.” I grab into the hard clay of the wall, pull on an exposed root, and swing my right arm over the top. ![]() I figure that it’s worth climbing up to get a different perspective on the whole thing and check out the terrain. The hill it cuts into doesn’t have much of a slope, and by the time the vegetation gets too thick the walls are only a little over head high, maybe six and a half, seven feet up. Luckily, this thing seems pretty much flat. If it’s too steep or too narrow, I might need to fence it off to avoid some trouble further down the line. Really find out what I’m working with in case I get a few head of cattle and one of them heads in this direction. I know from the property map that this gully cuts into some foothills, but I want to check out the grade. It’s right at the end of summer, heading into the fall, and it’s plenty dry. It looks like a seasonal creek, but there’s nothing running at this point. So I’m hiking around, boots crunching on this sandy gravel, picking my way through some overgrown and dried out grass (which I should probably get a fire crew up here to thin out and burn), and I head up this gully. Give the Dodge a rest, and take an afternoon on foot. Not hot enough for me to watch that Jojo Rabbit bullshit, but hot.Īnyway, since nothing new is coming out to watch in my new theatre, I thought I’d take a break from re-watching some of the Duke’s finest and walk my property. It’s a shame Disney pushed back Black Widow, because I’d love to get a hold of a screener and throw a life-sized Scarlett Johansson up on the wall. A movie theatre where I can run my own damn screenings of the latest Christopher Nolan film or whatever else. A kitchen sizable enough that I got a personal chef a couple days a week just to make good use of it. The new place is pretty recent construction - two stories, plenty of square footage, jacuzzi out back. The steakhouses in Washington might have more power brokers per square foot, but the beef is better out here.Īnd it’s not like I had to settle for some falling apart, tin-roofed shack, either. So I’m not in the center of power anymore. My commute is shorter, my sky is bigger, and I can roll all around my new property however I see fit. I sold up in Bethesda and plowed some money into a couple thousand acres in Mesa County. Or they would, anyway, except they’re doing everything over Zoom these days. Some folks in my profession are pissed that they either have to move out to Grand Junction to keep lobbying the BLM or find ways to schedule regular flights and split their time. That’s the kind of thing that just doesn’t feel as good sitting parked in traffic on the way to K street in DC. You know what is all kinds of good? Getting out of the city, buying a ranch, rolling around in a new Dodge Ram blasting Blake Shelton’s “God’s Country.” Oh yeah.
