I've only put 9,000 miles on my Monte and I've had it for 22 months.
plus, it only gets about 13 mpg with my heavy right foot, so the TB SS mpg is not an issue for me...

the ford edge and the mazda cx-7 are the same vehicle because if you have the hood open on both both engines have a ford stamp on the mazda on the side and a mazda stamp on the side on the ford irony. with the cx-7 there is so much out there for it same way for the tb and the tbss

There are some big numbers being thown around here. My source describes the Trailblazer SS as a 13.9 sec vehicle, still very impressive - but not 12's. A good race for a Monte SS too. Probably a better family vehicle.

Not as cool as an 06 Monte Carlo SS IMO. Bet better then the average grocery getter!

I'm glad you are mostly impressed with the TB SS. I've seen nothing but positive reviews after doing research on them. It may be a while before I find the "perfect" one for me, but the search is on.

Everybody agree that Black is by far the best color for the TB SS?
Would Blue be a close second?

Mann if you get one most def post pics! I loveee the Trailblazer SS! I plan on that being my "soccer mom" vehicle whenever I get older, if I can't get my hands on one of those I'll be getting an Acadia Denali...saw one at the Saint Louis Auto show in person & was like omggg! It's not the fastest thing out there but I think it's sexy! Especially the black ones


or maybe if I'm lucky I'll get both

That denali is sexy!

I like the TBSS, but if not I saw a cherokee srt8 was mentioned, those sound amazing.
