While I think an LS2 would be more appropriate...a Twin Turbo inline six would be a lot more fun! SON OF TYPHOON!

the twin turbo would probably be cheaper to mod, but you could mod a ls2 more. i want the twin turbo though

This bothers me to a degree. Its almost as if you think the Colorado is on par with the Trailblazer, I hope your just making light of the Cyclone/Typhoon comparo!
I have a TB now and personally I wouldnt want much more in it, LS2 wise, maybe a small TT setup would be nice Very nice ride, comfort and control, as well fit and finish. I like this one (TB) better than any Tahoe/Yukon I have owned or driven.

i agree, although i drove a bravada, not a trailblazer, they are pretty much the same thing. i just wish gm would put the time and effort they put into that truck into ALL their cars, not just a fifth gen camaro if it ever comes out. but i can't blame them, thats what sells.

Even at $2,000,000.00, I think the odds are in your favor! LOL

In all seriousness though, I've been saying for a while that they should bring back the Trailblazer SS but now with an LS3 and 6L90 6 speed automatic trans, could be pretty hot.
Or maybe even a manual (TR-6060?) version.
