Default Trailblazer SS info!

I went to the LA auto show today to watch the unvieling of the new Z06 . One of the heads of GM marketing did the unvieling and at the end told us the they were unable to get the trailbalzer SS there but he said it will have a 6.0, awd, 20's, monochromatic and it would be availabe as a 2006 model. Just thought I would let you guys know.

Good info, thanks. Maybe it will be an "early" release 2006 model.

I am really suprised that it is really AWD. That thing is going to be badass, but I am going to be really pissed if it is faster than me.

Yeah I had heard that they were going to keep it RWD to keep costs down.

the awd is to slow it down and try to keep it boring. nothing like making a performance vehicle and adding weight to it.

Maybe to keep it safe and slow down the breaking of stuff....distribute that power through a transfer case and two differentials, instead of directing it to just one...sad, but probably true.
