  Hate my TrailBlazer - 2005 Chevrolet TrailBlazer
  By towldy - November 23 - 2:57 pm

  I have always been a Chevy person, but this will be my last one. Bought this SUV new and have had problems with it. At 9,000 miles a rear door started rusting on the inside. I am on my third set of hatch shocks. First time they went bad I almost got my arm caught in hatch. Fan belt squeals every morning and I get 12 miles per gallon. Really dissapointed with this vehicle. It only has 13,000 miles on it. GM quality is a major issue.

  Nice SUV - 2005 Chevrolet TrailBlazer
  By Graten - November 3 - 12:26 pm

  Ive had my TB for 10 months and Ive driven it in city, highway, and on 4WD trails. Ive also slept in it for a couple of nights while elk hunting. This is a good all around vehicle especially for the money. It is big enough to be fairly comfortable sleeping in the back with the seats down when you need it. The only down side is that HWY mileage at interstate speeds (75MPH) is only around 17 1/2 to 18 MPG (rated at 21 mpg) although I do have a slightly higher rear end gear so others may do better. Driving in town yields around 13-14 mpg.

  A wonderful, comfortable, safe vehicle. We have found this TrailBlazer to be very sure footed on slick roads. All wheel drive is very easy to use with a flick of a switch or just leave in "Auto". The running gear is solid and dependable. Unlike other SUVs from Asia, you can actually fill the seats and not exceed the maximum gross weight. This TrailBlazer is very quiet on the road. At 65 miles per hour, you can whisper to the person next to you. We have never had a problem with our TrailBlazers as this is our second!

  Solid Suv - 2005 Chevrolet TrailBlazer

  At first I worried about buying American due to the fact of poor reliability. Im going on 2 yrs with this truck, and it has performed perfectly. I have about 18,000 miles on it with no issues. It is great in the winter. It gets you through anything without a problem. The ride is soft, so it does wallow a little bit, but overall has a nice ride.

  Like it, dont love it - 2005 Chevrolet TrailBlazer

  We have been happy with the vehicle. On the highway it is great, with a smooth and quiet ride. It is a little big to drive in the city daily. I would recommend it for long trips.

  My family and I recently traveled 1,600 miles with no problems. SUV performed well. It appears that Chevy has a winner in performance and little maintenance expense other than normal maintenance.

  Love my SUV - 2005 Chevrolet TrailBlazer
  By andrea - August 1 - 6:20 pm

  Im a mother of 2 active children who has to have friends go everywhere we go. I really didnt like the feel of driving a minivan, plus it wasnt 4WD so I thought I would try an SUV. I love it. I wouldnt buy anything else. I can count on it to get me through tough snow storms with ice and rain. Theres enough room for 7. and not be jammed in. Gas mileage is just as good as a van. Im getting 19 mpg in town and about 23 mpg on the highway. I love my SUV

  The vehicles interior is less to be desired. Cheap looking plastic. Handling around corners leaves much to be desired. On the positive side it is very dependable and quality built as well as a great exterior design.
