4WD Optest, SAT!
Well, we got butt slammed yesterday by the first El Nina winter storm in Western Washington. Got off of work and into the parking lot that was the commute home and immediately had to try and climb a large hill right off the base. The Blazer was loose and slipping in 2WD, so I shifted her down into 4LO and she crawled up that hill like it wasn't anything. Continued on towards home and alternated between 2Hi and 4Hi and was really pleased with how she did. Made it home no problem, unlike many of my fellow commuters.
Now I just have to get my carb and timing figured out as I ran my last tank of gas mileage. A whopping 6.71 mpg.
