2008 Chevrolet Trailblazer

2008 Chevrolet Trailblazer Model Overview

Vehicle Summary: 2008 Chevrolet Trailblazer

The Chevrolet TrailBlazer is a popular choice among midsize SUV buyers for the way it blends practicality and performance. It is built on a truck-based platform, meaning its ride is not as smooth as some crossover utility vehicles, but one version, the TrailBlazer SS, packs a number of sporty features that make it one of the fastest SUVs on the market. The standard engine is a six-cylinder, and there is an optional V8 engine. The TrailBlazer SS includes a bigger, 6.0-liter V8 engine.
