shortly we will be placing an order for 2023 Chevy Blazer RS .... it will be powered by a gasoline fueled 308 hp 3.6L V6 ..... while I have absolutely NO interest in purchasing one, I do find the electric powered 557HP 2024 Chevy Blazer SS to be interesting and I'm looking forward to following its development

Make sure you change your oil! I imagine you already know the reputation the timing chains have on the 3.6. I really dig the red interior on the SS, though time will tell how it holds up.

None of those routine service considerations with the electric powered 557HP SS, only range anxiety issues. :)

The majority of the timing chain issues are with the LY7 and earlier versions of the LLT 3.6L engine. By the 2012 model year, GM had made several changes to help address the timing chain issues the 3.6L engine was having. Although vehicles after the 2012 model year may still have timing chain problems, it is much less common than years past. Our 2016 had a 3.6. It provided us with excellent performance as well as mileage. Can only hope the one in the Blazer will give us the same level of service

that much horsepower from an electric motor fascinates me .... other than that, I have little to no interest in one

I stopped paying any attention to the Blazer when it stopped being a truck and transgendered into a car.

The Blazer never was a truck, but rather a Sport Utility Vehicle and it just keeps getting sportier. :)
