Single exhaust? Makes me think it won't have the motor we all want in it..

I know it won't have what I want in it.

They should have produced the twin turbo I-6 AWD concept and called that the SS instead of this.

Unique rear bumper....don't much care for the reese hitch sticking through it.

I like it.

I like it.

Our F-bodies could have come with single-exhaust tips as well :(

I am hoping for the 6.0 Liter atleast.

Yeah, I'm hoping that's the case too. I'll be in the market soon for a new truck ;)

From what I've heard...

Good: this beasty gets the LS2. :)

Bad: Base MSRP $38,000+ :eek2:

Twin-Turbo AWD Trailblazer concept >>>> Trailblazer SS

GM could've made a killing, and even had my money producing that concept.

Not too shabby, it takes a rather plain SUV and gives it appeal.

anybody have any news on this truck? i saw a commercial for it today and if it really does come out, the camaro is probably getting the boot.

Chevy's site says the official site will be online in March.

o wow. didnt notice that. thanks gloveperson :cheers:

Was the commerical you saw the one when all the SS models made a record?

yeah something like that

Ok, so this is going to be faster than the Jeep Hemi and Durango Hemi..and those do 0-60 in like mid 7's...so what should this thing do? (with the estimated LS2 engine)

or a twin turbo 4.2... 0-60 would be alot lower then that. its already in the high 7s, low 8s if im not mistaken.

I test drove a couple of the regular trail Blazers, they ride damn smooth and have great power.

I-6 twin turbo...0-60 in 5.3 !!!

While I think an LS2 would be more appropriate...a Twin Turbo inline six would be a lot more fun! :D SON OF TYPHOON!

As long as they continue the trend and give the same engine to the Colorodo.."son of the syclone?" :D

the twin turbo would probably be cheaper to mod, but you could mod a ls2 more. i want the twin turbo though :hail:

Son? More like bastard off spring of the Typhoon :) as both the Sy/Ty trucks were creations of GMC.

This bothers me to a degree. Its almost as if you think the Colorado is on par with the Trailblazer, I hope your just making light of the Cyclone/Typhoon comparo!
I have a TB now and personally I wouldnt want much more in it, LS2 wise, maybe a small TT setup would be nice :) Very nice ride, comfort and control, as well fit and finish. I like this one (TB) better than any Tahoe/Yukon I have owned or driven.

That's all was intended.

i agree, although i drove a bravada, not a trailblazer, they are pretty much the same thing. i just wish gm would put the time and effort they put into that truck into ALL their cars, not just a fifth gen camaro if it ever comes out. but i can't blame them, thats what sells.

Word.

Black, AWD, twin turbo I-6. A TB SS would make a killing depsite the abysmal quality and materials.
