Smile Kids/Blazers

Does this happen often to you guys too?

My kids fall asleep all the time riding in the blazer, it's the wind/fresh air & sun I guess but more often than not, on any long-ish ride they crash...

Don't know about the rest of you but we take blazer rides every chance we get!

I'll repeat myself again, KIDS LOVE BLAZERS, mine do anyways.

Better check to make sure you're not getting any exhaust blowing back into the interior.

Noted but unlikely.
You must not have kids, they always fall asleep with motion.

I haven't gone on a long enough trip with my baby-girl in back to have her fall asleep yet, but I'm sure someday she will.

Great pics Kurt!!!!!!! I'll have one someday to cruise around with my daughter in. She loves to go for rides in her mother's convertible, so a blazer would be great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Where do you live? I'll just make sure to keep any eye out for any Blazers in wine country to make sure they aren't swerving all over the road.

On my first date with my(now)wife I fell asleep in the backseat of a Jeep.I still get ribbed on that.Back then,my sister said I could fall asleep on a roller-coaster.Kids,there`s nothing like them.Thanks for sharing.

That is seriously cute

My Blazer seems to have the same effect. This was after a horse show.
