Overview & Reviews

For 2003, a new trim package, named The North Face Edition, comes with items that Chevy hopes will attract people who like to venture off the beaten path. Starting with a TrailBlazer LTZ or TrailBlazer EXT with the Leather Plus Package, Chevy adds body-color cladding, unique seats, mesh map pockets, rain-sensing wipers, liftgate lighting, an underfloor storage cargo liner, heavy-duty cargo mats, an adjustable cargo shelf (EXT model only) and The North Face duffel bags and blanket. Not for you? Perhaps a V8 will suit your fancy. Chevy's 5.3-liter V8 is available on the TrailBlazer EXT only. Other changes for 2003 include a larger 22-gallon fuel tank (late fall availability) and additional child-seat anchors on EXT models. Chevy has also made some previously standard equipment optional, such as the side airbags, rear cargo shade, interior lighting and auto-dimming driver-side mirror.

• Class-leading engine power, soft highway ride, room for seven in the EXT version.

  Family bought the 03 EXT LT 4.2 I6 model in 2003 with 30,000 miles on it. We now have 145,000 miles on it. While this thing has very little steering feel and is slow to respond, it rides fantastic, even on fairly rough dirt roads we use to get to Grandmas house. It also tows well (5000 pound boat), though if you do tow a lot, get the V8. While the I6 is fairly powerful, you do have to rev it past 3000 to get more immediate response. Since this is the EXT model, it has more weight than the base model, so mileage is a 16/20 city/highway. It has gotten us everywhere reliability with basic maintenance. 3rd tow will take adults surprisingly well. We believe we can get another 150,000+ out of her

  Loved this truck...sad to have lost it. - 2003 Chevrolet TrailBlazer
  By mchobbs - November 15 - 4:04 pm

  We had this truck for 11 years, bought it new, put over 150K miles on it. It was our most comfortable vehicle for long road trips, though fuel economy did sometimes cause us to drive the Camry. We lost this hard working truck to a head on collision with a drunk driver in a Dodge Ram and it kept my husband safe in that event (he walked away with bruises and a single broken bone in one hand). In all the time we had it we never had to do any major repairs, it still had original brakes, transmission, etc. From day one it vibrated when idling at 750rpm, never figured out why..but it was never a real problem.

  Every vehicle has problems...couldve done much worse. - 2003 Chevrolet TrailBlazer
  By whitemandeluxe - April 27 - 1:29 am

  Bought brand new mainly to tow my bass boat and to tailgate @ Colts games, and in those two regards it has not disappointed. Its never left us stranded. Even had a head on collision with a Ford Explorer 2 years ago, Im still driving, the Ford is in a boneyard somewhere. I have had some minor issues, fan clutch as Im sure everyone that is familiar with Trailblazers know was a very common issue. Had a few fit and finish issues the first year but were taken care of. 9 yrs and 120,000k later and she still rides(w/newer ball joints, connecting links and shocks) pulls and looks like new with no sign of letting up anytime soon.

  Loved my LTZ! But I think the check engine light came on at least 3 times a month... Between the dealership and my local repair shop I had many rental cars.

  Great Value 140K Later - 2003 Chevrolet TrailBlazer
  By t zander - November 17 - 2:00 am

  I bought this SUV new in 2002 and 140K later, its one of the best cars Ive ever owned. Out of the gate, I had a lot of electrical issues but the warranty covered repairs. Ive probably put in less than $2K in repairs and maintenance through the years and its still running strong. Ill probably retire the beast in a few more years but I couldnt be happier with the value. It will be hard not to consider a Chevy when I move into my next truck.

  One of The Best - 2003 Chevrolet TrailBlazer
  By Tom Jakubowski - August 14 - 6:53 pm

  Best vehicle I have ever owned. Get 15 mpg city and 21 mph highway since the day I bought it. Other than ordinary maintenance, I have spent only $210 on it in 6 years.
