One thing that has puzzled me, and I haven't come across an answer, is why the Chevy S-10 Blazers and GMC S-15 Jimmys are just labeled Blazer and Jimmy on the board. The Chevy used the S-10 prefix from 1983-1994, and the GMC used the S-15 prefix from 1983-1991 (when GMC renamed the larger model Yukon). These models were marketed with the prefixes, as shown on these brochures:

I know the 2nd generation models were just Blazer and Jimmy, but the first definitely used the prefixes. So I'm curious if there is a reason for this and any opinions.
