Yeah, I was looking at one that Munday chevrolet had in their lot. It's just an appearance package that compliments the interior and exterior a bit.
Not sure if I would spend the extra $$$ for it.

they are sharp, but in honor of the Intimidator it should have been cammed and dual exhaust from the factory also :judge:

This truck should come with the Corvette / GTO / CTS-V LS2 400 hp engine in it to make it something special. But no......that'll take away sales from the Corvette, GTO, and CTS-V!

BITE ME GM marketing department!

Hey moregrip, just out of curiosity where did you see him? I've seen one heading south on the 5 near Del Mar several times, but I'm always in the northbound lanes. I'd like to check that thing out.

Yes, they do. Same as the Silverado SS (non-Intimidator edition)

Ok I think its dumb they would think that. People buy what they can afford and/or what they want. The sales made are what people purchased already. So it would be dumb to say other vehicles take away sales from others.

LOL, I know Im trying to say something good here but i just cant put it in words. I need sleep! :eek2:

Why would GM offer a Trailblazer SS with 400hp and cut the nuts off the full size Dale Earnhart version of the pickup?!?!?!?
What a gaggle of tards at the Gm marketing dept!!! They should bitch slap all those dorks now!! :jest:
I think because the truck weighs more than the trailblazer it should be 450hp at least.

It's more than an appearance package. It is also an accessory package.

The package includes the stuff you have to order extra on a regular SS. Heated leather memory seats, and such. The price for comparably equipped trucks is not too far apart. Oh yeah, I've had mine for almost a month now and love it.

My dealership has two of them I test drove on nice but not worth the $$$ if you ask me. I am not a fan of the EXT Cab I opted to order a 06 Crew Cab with the VortecMax Pack (Same engine as the SS), a 3LT with all of the goodies including a sunroof is $36,580 vs.. the $40k for the Intimidator SS. I can always pickup a set of 20" SS wheels and add them to my truck.
