Favorite feature: |
Adult size 3rd row seat and great looks. |
Least favorite feature: |
Gas mileage only averaging 12.5 to 13mpg in city. |
Advice to buyer: |
Drive midsize and full size SUV alternatives then drive the Trailblazer EXT. You'll find it's the perfect combination. |
Detailed review: |
After 4,500 miles, I'm very pleased with the quality, driveability,and functionality of the Trailblazer EXT. It has many features only found in more expensive vehicles and true 7 passenger capacity. It drives like a midsize but has the capabilities of a full size SUV. The rear DVD is a must if you have kids and take long trips. It's relatively affordable. I paid less than $35K and have every feature that is offered except a sunroof and 4 wheel drive. By comparison, full size SUV's comparably equipped were in the $40k+ range and its cousin the GMC Envoy would have costs $2,500 more. GMC dealers would not deal!
The Honda Pilot costs less but was cramped,BORING,and could not even be purchased with a power passenger seat yet alone many of the other features found on the Trailblazer EXT. |
