    I never heard of the "K-10" designation used on the K-5 Blazer. Every fender badge I saw always said "K-5".

    I have a 1985 C10 that is my favorite vehicle! Even over my new vehicles. They just don’t make em like that any more. 🇺🇸

    I actually forgot that the suburbans were offered in the different trim packages. I was scratching my head at seeing the Scottsdale badge on one for a few minutes. It's been a minute. 😆

    If they can start making these instead of the breadboxes they make today I'll go to the dealership tomorrow and order one 👍

    it's hard to believe that only the 5.0/305 was available in CA. The 2 inline 6 cylinder engines especially the 292 ran forever.. The other 49 you could choose from everything but the 454 in a C-10...

      @mgtowfish73 The 1981 only, to be exact (incidentally, GMC also dropped the Sierra Grande name after 1981 too). These were, chronologically, the trim levels of the '73-'87 Chevy trucks: 1973-74, Custom, Custom Deluxe, Cheyenne and Cheyenne Super (base to top-of-the-line, respectively; the same's also true of the '71-'72 trucks); 1975-81, Custom Deluxe, Scottsdale, Cheyenne and Silverado (again, base to top-of-the-line, respectively and, yes, before 1999, Silverado was the top-of-the-line trim level ONLY); 1982-87, Custom Deluxe, Scottsdale and Silverado (once more, base to top-of-the-line, respectively; as I said, 1981 was the Cheyenne's last season and GMC, likewise, followed suit for 1982 by doing the same thing).

      I had a 1991 Cheyenne, but I've never seen any between 78-87 tho. In 88 a Cheyenne was bottom trim no cloth, no stereo, no ac. My 91 had a rubber plug where the radio antenna would've been on the fender lol

    Me gustan las tres camionetas Chevrolet Blazer K5 Custom Deluxe, Silverado y Scootsdale C10/20/30; incluyendo la Chevrolet Suburban; con los asientos delanteros tipo butaca; me pongo a imaginar una bella muchacha; soltera, libre y sin compromiso; sin tatuajes, ni piercings en su cuerpo; ella es blanca, ojos azules, cabello rubio; la cara maquillada, los labios rojos, el cabello arreglado, ella viste una blusa blanca manga larga, minifalda azul oscuro, calcetines canilleros blancos y gomas blancas; ella va manejando la camioneta yo voy en el asiento del pasajero; ella es la dueña de la camioneta; es (la dama de la Suburban); me voy con ella para Mérida por asuntos de trabajo; nos vamos para Mérida por Curimagua, Cubiro y La Puerta; solamente para pasear y descansar; estando en Curimagua; cuando nos iremos de día de campo para pasear para las cataratas de Hueque; para pasar el día de campo; llevar comida preparada; yo visto un pantalón largo con el cinturón; calcetines, zapatos una franela y gorra; ella viste una blusa cuadriculada manga larga unos shorts, calcetines y gomas blancas; para qué se vea cómo una exploradora; si sobró lo del almuerzo queda para la cena; saludos y buenas noches.

    18:54 That rear A/C was just about the only luxury on your loaded Suburban that couldn't also be had on a loaded Chevette, and that mainly because it was completely unnecessary on the smaller car.
