yea and i knew someone that had a 2007 with chrome 20s. good vehicle and with that optional 5.3 liter v8 damn good acceleration. the 6 cylinder of the old blazer was also a good motor
@timforsyth89 lolll stupid comment..... an escalade has a 8 cylinder engine and trailblazer inline 6 so please know you shit...trailblazer i a fucking good suv burn less gas than your escalade
@StarzXFP been there too...and id have to say the opposite. gearing on the explorer does make a difference, if it doesnt have the 3.73, and only the 3.55 then yeah the v8 isnt much help. but outside of that no way, your nuts...
@k2sb20033 Actually my dad has had a trailblazer and explorer... all I can say is that the trailblazer is fast and accelerates in a heartbeat and the 270-290 horses really kick in at all times.. you are wrong there. The explorer was okay, but pretty much only from like 0-50... after that it really wasn't as strong like the trailblazer which just eats up to the governor. Horsepower does mean "shit".
@StarzXFP im guessing you havent had both, but im sure your "buddy" has...horse power doesnt mean sh*t unless its in a useful power band...look at what rpm the I6 gets all that horse power at...then compare it to the fords v6. its all about usefulness. the other issues include an outdated 4 speed trans, the front diff runs through the oil pan, but hey at leasts its a true body on frame SUV.
@k2sb20033 It's funny how you say the 4.6L V8 wins compared to the Vortec 4.2L I6. The V8 4.6, a bigger and 8 cylinder engine which burns more gas then a 4.2 I6 - only has 239 horsepower which is a joke compared to the I6 in trailblazers which produce 291hp and burn less gas. Smaller engine and more power. The optional 5.3L V8 is a small block 302hp engine and GM didn't create this because of the "v8 explorer"... the I6 engine was already dominant.
Gotta love that inline 6!

@k2sb20033 I agree that the gearing on the explorer is much better then the trailblazer, in fact I prefer Ford transmissions way over Chevy's..
