trailblazer ss

[bmoss85]

does any one here have a trailblazer ss. i just went and test drove one today. i really want to buy it, but i want to know if anyone on here owns one. if so, how have you liked or disliked it. ive never purchased a brand new car before and was just wanting some input from anyone that may own one.
i know in the end its my desicion, i just would like to know what experiences anyone has had with it.

LOL Anyways, I've heard nothing but awesome things about the SS.

I'd love to get myself one, but that's would be a bad idea....at least until I get my own house and garage

like this?:

damn... 13.9 stock? thats...really cool!!

I've always admired chevy's colorado extreme - there's a yellow one at my college. Looks really mean and I figured it would be fast. never remembered to check on the numbers though... but i'm learning now that i think the engine is different. I think what i saw was the colorado extreme and that apparently doesn't have the vette engine

They are pretty damn nice, I have come to really respect those things. You can tow your car to the drag strip, then beat it down the 1320. Whats not to like?

im gonna call my insurance company tomorrow and see what its going to cost me. i have a speeding ticket and an accident on my record. i know they should be coming off either this month or next month. i cant remember exact dates though.

I've got a Colorado LS Sport - biggest engine (till '09) is a 225hp 3.5L It moves the truck around pretty good, but I'm working on sourcing a 5.3L to rebuild and drop into it, with a T56.
