Why did they stop making chevy k5 blazers?

Question

BTW....no, i'm not talking about s-10 blazers. The trailblazer, envoy, and tahoe are not the same rig....if you remember right, the k5 had a removable top....the last time i checked...the trailblazer, envoy and tahoe don't do that.....i want to know why....and when they stopped making them. that's all. if you're going to leave some dumb comment about the rollover rates...keep moving....look at the rollover rates on explorers and expeditions....and huh.....THEY STILL MAKE THEM. i''m going to say possibly the reason they quit making them had something to do with the body styling...and it couldn't become more aerodynamic...blah blah blah

Answer 1

They just didn't sell well enough to justify their existence. This of course, from the people who brought you the Pontiac Aztec. People want cushier cars every year. The Jeep owns that rugged off road market now. GM will probably end up owning Jeep anyway when Chrysler folds next year. They may come out with more custom individualized trucks in the next few years where you can totally customize the design yourself. It still won't be the same though. I remember when the K5 and the Bronco first came out. They were radical then and were great vehicles.  

Answer 2

The Truth is that GM ceased production of them because sales of them were decreasing dramatically and with the next thing in that class was ready to roll out the new thing and plus it costs them more money to keep making them when the new thing in its class was more successfull sales wise i actually asked myself the same question not too long ago then i read about it in some magazine

Answer 3

If you'll remember, for the '92-I believe '94 model years, the 2 door version of the Tahoe was called the Blazer. When the 2 door model was discontinued-I don't understand why either-They just stuck with the Tahoe name.
