2005 Chevrolet TrailBlazer

I love this Trailblazer!

By SteveSI (NY) on Sunday, May 19, 2013

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 57,000

Pros: "Safety, comfort, power, and cargo/towing capacity."

Cons: "Mediocre gas mileage."

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 10

"Comfortable and capable! It drives as comfotably as most cars. The long wheel base and big tires take potholes without trouble. Snow and rain are no problem. In bad weather I shift to automatic 4WD and the vehicle shifts into 4WD when needed. I wish they still made them. I am taking care of this one because I want to keep it for a long time."

THIS IS THE BEST CHEVROLET FULL SIZE SUV EVER !

By GREGORY (NJ) on Wednesday, May 15, 2013

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 55,000

Pros: "FUN TO DRIVE AND THE NICE LOOK ON THE TOWN"

Cons: "REAR CUP HOLDERS ARE GROUND LEVEL, Gas milage"

"Once you own a Chevy Trailblazer you want NOTHING ELSE to drive in your life. It handles just like a car, no wide turns necessary. We had some major storms in the North East and every time and I MEAN EVERTIME the trailblazer has surprised me. It cuts through the snow like butter with traction control. Smaller SUV/Crossovers’ slip and slide in rain, Not the Trailblazer. The Driving Dynamics is crazy, it does more than holds the road; it grabs the road. It's dependable and reliable. If your tall like me (6'0) heaven. There enough room for you, four more people and your cargo. My wife has Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) which means I need to put a full-size scooter in and out of the truck. That’s how much room I have. I brought my first Trailblazer in 2001 and my second in 2006! Tell me I’m not a fan. My only complaint they stop making them AND pretending Transverse is the same truck."

Love love love this vehicle

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 200,919

"I bought my trailblazer used and it was the best decision I ever made. Aside from basic car repairs it has never let me down. It is comfortable to drive, all the controls are within easy reach, it holds a ton of of my stuff. I have hauled everything from people to wood. The fold down seats give me even more room. I have looked at other vehicles to compare it to and it would cost me close to $40k to get what I have in this. Tilt, cruise, dual power seats, heated mirrors, heated seats, lumbar support for driver and passenger, rear air and heat. We loved this one so much we bought a second one!"

The ANTI MINIVAN

By YoungMomHipMom on Thursday, April 25, 2013

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 86,600

Pros: "Quick, reliable, safe, tough, kid friendly"

Cons: "Interior-not so fancy, typical SUV gas mileage"

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 10

"Love love this SUV for toting around my kids and making the 30 mile trip into work everyday. Very safe, reliable, and have NEVER had any mechanical problems with it. Despite it being a SUV, it is light and quick- which makes traveling fast paced freeways a breeze. I never have to worry about cutting anyone off or being the 'slow poke' because the V8 keeps me going when I need to. Love the rear AC/Heat for the kids and it does great on roadtrips. Have taken it camping and it does great off road as well as towing/hauling (trailer with 3 ATV's, +5 passengers and cargo and it did great) When I first bought this I hated giving up my zippy cool looking coup, but after 3 years I wouldn't go back to an unsafe little car ever again. Perfect family vehicle for those who want to avoid being stuck in an overpriced, wimpy minivan. And you have to love the pricetag- very affordable. Rock the TB and you will love it!"
