The hill climb test has absolutely nothing to do with power. What a bullshit test. Both trucks were in low-range, you can hear the whine. Bronco probably had car tires on it, plus the Blazer already loosened up the sand and trenched it out deeper. I’ve owned five K5 Blazers and currently own 2, so I’m not a Bronco guy by any means. It’s all about the tires and the driver when it comes to off-road capability (discounting locking differentials of course).

They literally contradicted themselves minutes apart. First they tell you: "You have to pay extra for automatic locking hubs on a Ford", but then they tell you that you have to purchase a K-Series Blazer in order to have 4WD while it is standard on a Bronco. The price for Automatic Locking Hubs isn't not extra on the Blazer, it's just included in the extra price for 4WD. You can still use a Bronco in 2WD even if 4WD is always equipped, so i don't see GM's point. Funny how they didn't test the 305 V8 against a 302, ans instead used the 300 six🤔.

Your 2.3 ecoboost is turbo charged. 🙄 You are trying to compare that to a naturally aspirated motor from 40 years ago. Common, get real. The naturally aspirated 2.3 liter from that era made a measly 88 horse power. Now that's a fair comparison. Turbo charge or super charge any motor and its output dramatically improves. No surprise there. 😊👍

@ I wouldn’t say that I’m comparing it in a despairing way, just making a note on the progress. The mileage isn’t all that different but I’m glad to see that at least one of these machines has a form of new life. Personally I grew up driving a 91 suburban which was basically a 4 door blazer. Most of the same Chevy interiors and the like. I get flashbacks looking at those pop out ash trays. My suburban had a big v8 in and only made 175hp I think. I’ve mentioned before that my 2 door bronco is like all the good parts of the old Chevy and none of the bad. I do miss those bench seats tho

@@Leo9ine they may be a decade apart. But the Chevy retained the same leaf sprung suspension up until the late 80’s. Whereas Ford adopted coil spring front suspension in the 60’s.

I like the 70s-80s Ford and Chevy trucks both. Back when both car brands were competing hard to see who could make customers the most happy, not how cheap they could make their products without getting sued. That beeing said I think Ford made slightly higher quality trucks. Chevy seems to be a bit more utilitarian and economical, but Ford adds that little extra dash of luxury and style.

The late ‘70s and early ‘80s was not a great era, but by the mid ‘80s on with overdrive transmissions and computer controlled sensors you could run vehicles to 300,000 miles with proper maintenance and regular fluid changes. Before the introduction of that we were lucky to run these old oil consumers up to 150,000 miles. Through the ‘80s the life of these drivetrains doubled due to technological advancements in oils, care and maintenance.

I had a friend that bought a Blazer back in 85 and when he retrieved from the dealer the truck had to be repainted due to excessive orange peel and paint runs , then it started rusting a couple of years later. My uncle had a similar Ford pickup with the 300 engine new and the engine oil pumps was the only issue

From 2027 on in the EU certain car spare parts will be banned too....as exhaust systems, turbo chargers and even some engine and gearbox oils...California and New York will do the same from 2027 on.... So no investments should be done in oil burning cars any longer....They even created a new kind of crime here, called emissions and smoke crime.

You have to love the propaganda, they both used the same NP208 transfer case and the automatic hubs are the exact same with different decals on the outer cover.

All my 4x4’s have the manual hubs and shift lever. Theres no inconvenience to this set up at all. Just get out when you get to the trail. Simply turn a dial and go. How is that a pain? Unless you’re the type who waits till they actually get stuck. Then put it into 4 wheel drive. And if you are that type. It just means you dont have the correct experience with 4x4’s

@@johnnymula2305 it was a pain crawling up muddy hills, sliding into ruts and roots, spending an hour trying to figure out what's wrong with my system, only to have a Suzuki Samurai snatch me out, clean the mud from my hubs, and realize 1 was twisted out of place and I didn't have to be stuck at all if I would have known earlier that things like that were a possibility! Or when u r on a long road trip and there are snow storms along your route (intermittently) and u have to pull over to lock the hubs, but u have to unlock them on the dry patches because locked hubs dont like dry pavement, 5 stops to lock/unlock b4 gettin out of Ohio, and 2 more for good measure in Tennessee. I stand by my previous statement: What a pain. I was too happy when technology made locking hubs unnecessary to have fun.

@@nicolasbsmith78 you can leave them engaged on long trips with winter snow conditions. They wont harm anything but fuel mileage. Ive never had one of mine come out of locked position once in. Im assuming you didnt fully lock the hub. Or there was something wrong with it. Im on my 5th vehicle with manual lockouts. I even converted my 90 wrangler to manuals. ( its a dedicated rock crawler). I hear more people having issues with the auto hubs than manuals. Thats why they’re prefered in the off roading community. Autos are prefered for the street crowd and weekend warriors.

Probably because GM made quite a lot more, sold quite a lot more, and has quite a lot of spare parts out for Squarebody Chevy’s than Ford ever had with Bronco. The less there is of something, the more it’s price increases. Also, Price doesn’t mean quality, and it certainly doesn’t mean reliability.

@@MrBradjr1234 the blazer doesn’t let off the gas. Incase you don’t know how sound works, that blazer is moving farther away from the camera, and is also on uneven terrain/climbing. It got considerably quieter as it made its climb up the hill. If you want to try smearing dirt all over Chevy, make sure you have your facts straight.
