Thought you were talking about the bottom line price. The base 2500 is higher, so that makes up the difference.

Nope. The extra weight of the V10 required the heavier suspension, axle and beefed-up frame of the 2500/3500.

Want me to post up the one from my dad's 1986 Blazer (that we recently scrapped, so sad!)? $14,688 in 1986 is $28,751 in today's dollars. That thing was top of the line!

EDIT: I also have the original deal papers, the Original owner paid $8715 for it because he had a '79 to trade in for it. So, he paid $17,059 in today's dollars for it. My dad paid $1,500 for it in 2002, which is $1,788 today.
