So far, My Trailblazer has been great. I love the way it rides, accelerates, and handles. It's very quiet inside, has plenty of room, the seats are comfortable, and it's easy to maneuver in traffic. The takeoff power is awesome. It will get up and go.

I have owned 5 Chevy Surburbans and the Trailblazer handles as good. It pulls heavy boats and trailers like a much bigger vehicle. The fuel economy under load is excellent. The car is fun to drive, and handles like a high performance auto.

Great SUV for the money compared to similar imports. Lots of get up and go, and great options (that are standard). I feel like I'm driving a car and not a truck. It was a great option to purchasing another minivan, which I disliked.

I leased my first Trailblazer in 2001 and I liked it so much when my lease was up I decided to re-lease the 2005 LS Trailblazer. I noticed some features and bugs have been worked out. Tail lights actually work in my 2005 and my 12v plug is missing in my 2005 to blow up my bike tires. All in all I like the overall feel of the steering, drive, and pick up of the Trailblazer. The LS is just as nice as the LT without the bells and whisles. The sun, sound, and safety package is great! My friends own the Durango, and Explorer and wish their family worked for GM instead. Thank you for such a great automobile and hope GM keeps going in the right direction!

I swore I'd never drive a Chevy again, but the employee-discount deal made a 2yr lease on this T-Blazer cheaper than the four-year-old Eddie Bauer I was looking at, so I relented. Took it through a car wash the other day; the top windshield molding blew off. My wife opened the door the other day; the inside door seal fell to the ground. Plasticy interior has had a couple rattles already. Biggest complaint is the lack of travel on the seats. I'm 6'3 and can't get the seat low enough to feel like I'm riding "in" the car, rather than "on" the car, plus no lumbar or lateral back support- my '96 Ford had a better seat. It ain't bad, it just could be better..
