Summary
Having had a 1991 Subaru Justy as my primary mode of transportation for quite a while, it was a great opportunity to slide behind the wheel of our new 2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer. I knew right away that there were going to be marked differences in...
Strength
runs very quietly, lots of "get-up-and-go", great turning radius, beautiful vehicle
Weakness
bad gas mileage, Proximity of gas pedal to console,
Bottom Line
The 2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer is a great vehicle for a small family, or someone just looking for a great Sport Utility Vehicle.
Time was Detroit wouldn't even make a performance version of anything with more than two doors. The idea of a sport sedan just didn't compute. Even now you cannot get a Cobalt SS Supercharged in sedan form. But if you want a high-performance SUV, which...
Strength
Power, can order just the features you want, price, towing
Weakness
Jeep performs better and is more sophisticated
Bottom Line
A good value for those seeking a quick yet functional SUV, and don't mind a few rough edges.
Why buy an SUV? In September of 2005, I was in a position to change my transportation options, primarily involving how I got myself to work. Due to company cutbacks, I would have to foot the entire parking bill in downtown Portland, if I were...
Strength
Strong, reliable, good looks and decent build quality. Fair gas mileage.
Weakness
Poor workmanship in door moldings and wiring, awkward rear entry, no hood supports
Bottom Line
Plenty of power and comfort in a mid-size SUV. It does what it's designed to do in style and without complaint.
This SUV is a sure head turner (and approving nods) when viewed by other motorist. Great vehicle and pricing is not bad especially w/ incentives. You have the ability to configure the vehicle the way you want, bare bone or options galore. I recommend...
Strength
Highs: available options, power, appearance (black or blue), DUBS (20 in wheels)
I was not in the market for a used SUV and had no experience with a TrailBlazer, but I found the newer SUVs in the "value" package were not meeting my expectations. I tested the TrailBlazer and was amazingly surprised at all the options (heated leather...
Strength
Smoothest ride in an SUV, beautiful interior and exterior.
I traded my 2005 turbocharged Subaru Outback for the Trailblazer. The Chevy doesn't "scoot" like the Outback, but it has the room I need. Plus, it doesn't have the "dinky" feel of the Subaru. This vehicle has plenty of power with the 4.2-litre six,...
Strength
Build quality, solid feel, reasonable gas mileage.
