I worked as a GM Tech from 04-12 and always loved these vehicles! Its funny when they were new at the time we didn't see how bad the interior plastics were then haha. it just seemed really nice and cool then! And yet now in 2020 my most favorite car from that time is the Turbocharged 08-10 Cobalt SS! God those cars are so underated! My mild tuned one by me runs 12s and is such a fun car with cheap enough plastics to be rejected by McDonalds toys haha

I love my TrailBlazer 2006 straight 6 4.7 liter it's so fast I would love the V8 has 300.000 miles still runs great

Loved this suv so much. Great engine with great power. Engine is good for mods,racing,daily driving and gas mpg wasn't horrible considering. Awd or rwd is Awesome price isn't bad. The 2ss package with sunroof leather and suede is amazing. And onstar boose stereo automatic adjustable airbags etc. For the price the suv was a slam dunk. And compared to a stock trailblazer ss inside and out it looks more luxury and sportier

@burb17 4 жыл бұрын

There was no such thing as 2SS. GM had 1 or 3SS option packages. That applied to 07-09 models. 2006 were still LS or LT optioned trucks with SS option.

Hey guys, nice work on this one, best editing yet! Im feeling the Top Gear inspiration on this one. Keep up the good work. Folks out there like me are watching your stuff... as a fellow car enthusiast from Sedalia, I especially appreciate some local videos.

I totally disagree with them on the brakes.. 4 piston calipers.. actually pretty good.. These guys don't know what they are driving. The ss has custom lowered spindles in the front and air ride in the back.. the stock didn't have that.. The bumper covers and lower valences are different. The low center of gravity makes it turn great.

@TheThra5h 5 жыл бұрын

I agree. I've had mine for 10 years and it stops on a dime. Seems like they wanted to find a flaw and just ran with that.

@blautens 4 жыл бұрын

Yes, the stock brakes are very, very good, and easily upgraded for an even stouter feeling and easier to modulate pedal just by swapping lines. Whatever they're talking about might be specific to that test vehicle. Don't get me wrong, I know every bad thing about my TBSS parts eater, but brakes...not something they skimped on.

@burb17 4 жыл бұрын

They said dual piston floating calipers which is correct for the fronts. The rear had aluminum single piston floating. The rear came factory with auto leveling air springs. The compressor was mounted under the rear bumper fascia behind the right rear tire.

I feel like it was hammered a bit unnecessarily and a slight bit misrepresented. You talk about the 90's throwing SS on everything but it isn't a 90's vehicle. Just sayin.

Yeah should have said early 2000’s. I guess what I meant was, had they realized their past mistakes by the time they made the trailblazer ss.

I can’t believe that you guys didn’t mention the air ride suspension

@robertkoontz7865 5 жыл бұрын

So I purchase an 06 T.B. SS No one mentions the front drive shaft actually runs through the oil Pan. This was done to lower the center of gravity. Thank you German Engineering. Mine was lowered with coil overs in the front and I put Air shocks on the back and ran an air line to the Air Sation Positioned at the Right Rear inside quarter panel. It kinda flips out at high rpm, hoping a cam and blower will remedy that. Idigit oh It also has a 4 link suspension. Best handling vehicle I've driven. The 89 beamer was tight but this is a truck/Suv. Isn't that crazy about the front drive shaft though.

These things are not as fast as the srt's but they are not supposed to be its less power and older tech but don't get it twisted you can make them faster with some money and still have money left over for gas or you can just go out and buy a SRT for 60k and up and drive what everyone else has!!!!!
