The relationship with my 2003 Trailblazer is one of love/hate. Fun to drive, when it works. Lots of cargo space and roomy for 7 people. Driver's seat is like a cockpit with tons of buttons and controls. BUT... the engine and electronics has been unreliable. The 4x4 switch has failed 4 times in 15 months, requiring in- shop servicing for more than 15 days. While on vacation, the windshield wipers failed during a major rain storm (stuck in on position) and we had to pay for a rental car. Tail pipe is already rusting and we have a squeek (that can't be found) in the front end. Although I love to drive the car... it will have to go!

When I first thought of truck to buy this was my first choice. I still was careful and test drove all of the other SUV in the same class. The trailblazer was built better and looked better. A great buy for a mom with children. Don't forget to get the DVD and the third row seat. I will be going back this year to get a new trailblazer with all the extras. Thanks GM!

Great truck based SUV

This is a great all around SUV for those who need a heavy duty truck based SUV. The 4.2L engine tows heavy loads with ease. The ride is comfortable and the handling is better than a full size SUV such as a Tahoe. The mpg is only slightly better than a full size SUV. We average about 15mpg in mixed driving conditions. This is a very good vehicle with the 4WD if you live in an area that has a snowy winter. The build quality on GM products has been improving. Our Trailblazer has had a couple recalls and now it needs new brake rotors after only 11,000 miles, I hope this is not be a problem to get it repaired under warranty.

I like my Chevy Trailblazer for many different reasons, like everything is user friendly,within the drivers reach,you don't have to stretch to reach anything. There is a lot of leg room in the front and the back. The hatchback part,I think is great do to the fact the back window raises for access, or you can pull a handle and the whole door raises,which allows for many different uses. The only bad thing I can say about it is the engine compartment,for most average shade tree machanics like me you can pop the hood and see were everything is, not on this one,I still haven't found the spark plugs, everything else is easy to find.
