@dzzzt69 replacing your air filter with a K&N Air Filter is one of the best investments you can ever make to improve gas mileage. It's made of a different material that traps more tiny particles, and allows more air to enter in to the engine, which results in increased horsepower, better throttle response, and especially, improve fuel economy. I have it on my Chevy TrailBlazer with a V8, and the difference is night and day. You can easily look for the part number on the K&N Website

I have a 2006 4.2, the only thing I don't like about it is the gas mileage, and the stupid center console lid. I would not stay shut and would open at random. However, I broke off the clip and not just use velcro, problem solved. Any tricks to get better gas mileage?

Would have been 100X better if they changed the door handles.

Are Trailblazer and Envoy parts compatible with the 9-7X?
-
@Rs7764 Yes, but don't use synthetic oil because it'll burn it on the highway switching from 4 to 8 and back.

"The 6 runs out of steam at the top end." No it doesn't. Peak torque of the I6 is 4800 RPM, and the torque curve is flatter than that of the V8.

I like the suv, I just searched actual recorded gas mileage by the EPA, the 5.3l V8 actually gets an average of 26.8MPG highway because of the variable cylinder shut off. This was the actual recorded mileage, not those BS EPA estimates.

Those are pretty nice SUVs if you ask me

@spoirier01 I agree, I own one also and I used to own a TrailBlazer and an Envoy before that. The 9-7X has much better handling and feels quicker too. It actually feels down right sporty at times.
