Congratulatioins Jim. I hope Maureen likes it as much or more as the Camero.

I agree, it's a long journey from the original blazers.

she's really opened up and has become very comfortable with it .... our wreck earlier this year that destroyed her Camaro affected her ..... for that reason, I've seen to it that she's driven it every inch so far .... I haven't so much as sat in the driver's seat .... its been great seeing her work her way out of being apprehensive about driving .....

we are taking Maureen's Blazer back to the dealership where a local independent contractor will pick it up and take it to be ceramic coated .... this will be a first for us ..... our vehicles sit outside 24/7 ..... modern paint seems to be able to withstand the weathering over time better than it did years ago .... red paint has been prone to fading over time and we would like to keep it looking new for as long as possible with minimal effort .... should be an interesting experiment

per Car and Driver Magazine

"Ceramic coatings offer a better level of protection against environmental hazards and damage from the sun's UV rays than traditional wax. They also offer resistance to chemical stains and a certain degree of scratch resistance, giving the car a high-gloss finish and making it easier to clean.​"

Yes, and I would do the same for a new vehicle.
