Chevy Trailblazer

[justme]

Any one know anything the Chevrolet Trailblazer? The wife is looking at losing the BMW, due to a pending move northward within the next year or so. Therefore, snow navigation is critical and mandatory for her. She is considering a LTZ 4x4 loaded with all the toys, no kids to carry, just grandkids when they visit.



Anyone have any experience with this model or recommend a different model (GMC maybe?) SUV?



Thanks, Michael

First off, this is a 1st year everything truck/car. The new 4. 2L in-line 6 cyl gas engine is quite interesting ... but brand new. Would you like to be one of the first guninee pigs to get one ... help out GM in finding all the problems, bugs, etc... ?

I was one of those people when I bought a 1988 Chevy 3/4. There is not enough room here to post all the problems I had with that truck ... and the horror show with dealing with GM Service Depts.

If I were to drop 34K on a SUV, I would not want to be someones test subject, I would put it down on a proven vehicle like a V6 Toyota 4-Runner SR5 or the Ford Explorer XLT.

The new Chevy may look nice, but we all know the old saying about "don't just a book by it's cover".

What about a Durango?!

I had a 98 toyota 4runner limited before the bmw and I can say that it was the best handling vehicle in the snow that I have ever driven by far!! But the wiffer wanted a sporty car.

I wouldn't buy a Chevy or a Furd!!

good luck

few customers have them... ... we have serviced 5 of them so far. They seem to be holding up at least so far with 10K on one of them
