Do you wish you had a Chevy Trailblazer?

The car prize on CBS Survivor, this time was a Chevy Trailblazer and that was just a consolation prize. I was wondering if anyone here would rather be driving a Trailblazer instead of a Civic. If it were free, I think I would take a chance on the Trailblazer.

Yeah, I would take one if it was free. Just use it for trips up skiing, and pulling things for my toys Put some nice rims on it too and tint that beast out

I have been in a GMC Envoy, which is the same as the trailblazer....My girlfriends sister leased a 2002 Charcoal grey one. I think its a really nice truck, and I like the way it rides.

Bellz has a spectacular aura aboutBellz has a spectacular aura about
Crash test results.
I suggest you check out this site before committing to a new car or truck. The trailblazer did marginal with 3 stars (21% to 35% chance of serious injury) for a frontal crash and 5 stars for side impact. Rollover is only 3 stars.

If you want to see a pathetic rating, check out the Cavalier. Poor ratings.

Better yet, go to www.iihs.org... their tests put a lot more strain on the structure of the car by offsetting the vehicle and striking 40% of the vehicles frontal width against a barrier.

They are nice and do look sharp. However, there is no way in hay that I would spend that kinda of money on something that will continually have problems. I wouldn't even look at the thing. Straight to the honda dealer and I'll take a pilot please.

Its a great truck and runs well....Lots of power for a V6 as well ......Haven't had any problems as of yet (and hopefully won't) - Its a very big vehicle and can be hard to park (the EXT anyway) .....But it makes long trips very easy ....If your in the market for a big SUV I would go for it

actually, once you work the engine in (we have 15,000 km on it) the gas milage is pretty good...mind you it takes $70 to fill it but that ususally last you quite a while
