>>337074id go for a '00 despite what everyone says, just pull the valve cover and check for cracks before you buy it, worse comes to worse you can get a junk yard head for a hundred bucks or so. CUCV blazers are cool too, but big and cumbersome on tight trails. although you get more room and a bigger tow capacity (if you get one id suggest picking up a military trailer to tow behind it)
you can pick one up for pretty cheap
