Trailblazer SS update...
Trailblazer SS update...
Went to check them out again.
Still a constraint on new orders, which means that you can't order one and rebates have been cancelled on the SS.
I checked another one out yesterday, I'm not much of a truck guy, but between the small business deduction for GVWR of over 6,000 lbs and all my GM points...I've been seriously considering one. But not if I can't order one. And not if I can't get a deal on one.
I have to admit though...the black one I drove yesterday, looked bada$$.

Re: Trailblazer SS update...
But see? The TB SS is just what GM needs...a car that can actually pull, you know, STICKER PRICE 
Imagine that...deal or no deal, I love them. If I had the cash, I can't imagine a better DD for me personally. 0-60 as quick as an LT1, decent handling, and a comfortable, spacious interior. I love it...

Really, I agree Jason. But there is no way I'm spending anywhere around 40K for one. Not a chance.

Was this one a 2WD or AWD? It would also be intersting to see how close your Durango will be to the SS.

But like so many products from the General as of late, its just missing that look to me...

The Durango isn't as fast and doesn't handle anywhere near as well as the TB SS....but it still has a nicer interior.

Re: Trailblazer SS update...
so, does anybody have any updates on the replacements for the GMT-360?
I can see the next Gen TB SS having the 6L80E and a version of the L92 with a nicer interior.
Either that or maybe Chevy will release a Tahoe SS or Tahoe Xtreme?

That's been killed.
The current GMT360 will soldier on with upgrades. Especially with the Lambda variants coming online, that makes perfect sense.

Even with the new crossovers, I can't see them abandoning this segment. It's still one of the best selling segments in the country.
Re: Trailblazer SS update...
The problem is, truck-based SUVs are still a boon to those who tow, and don't want a truck. Until a crossover can pull 5,000+ pounds, I can't imagine the BOF SUVs dying...but what do I know...

Re: Trailblazer SS update...
It figures that GM finally has something that people will pay sticker for, and they didnt accurately predict the demand to suppliers, so there is an ordering hold on them until May or June.
