Overall it works for me.

My 2008 Chevy Trailblazer 4 door is good for my lifestyle cause I have a lot of activity going on everyday and it’s easy to get around in and their is enough room for everyone. It drives pretty smooth and maintenance on it is easy to keep up. It works for me?.

Love it

Owned/bought new in 2009 (Is a 2008 model). Big vette engine, is comfortable, has all the tech stuff I need. The SS is one of GM's best vehicles ever. Very aesthetic paint color. Mus be good paint because there are no nicks after 140,000 miles. Only gave me a problem once and was repaired quickly. Pulls my bass boat with ease.

Good 4WD and tow vehicle. Smooth ride.

This is the 2nd Chevy Trailblazer I’ve owned. They are very good 4WD vehicle for driving in snow and also a good towing vehicle. I tow a 4000 lb boat and it does a great job. Smooth ride too. But, repairs are expensive!

Reliable

had my SUV 12 years. Have 192,000 miles and, according to my mechanic, my engine and body are in excellent shape. I still have the original brakes and was told yesterday I still have 20-30,000 mi. Left on there. Been a great vehicle!

Great SUV, easy to work on too!

I have had 2 Chevy Trailblazers, one because they are very dependable trucks, two because they're easy to work on and I love American made vehicles. It is also a handsome truck. I will eventually pass this down to my son as well.

Awesome

Comfortable to ride for long distances, with plenty of power to merge into traffic. It has some wind noise at high speeds but it is negligible. The gas mileage is not great but I didn’t want it for mileage..

This car owes me nothing

I bought this car “Used” with 38,000 miles on it. I was a bit apprehensive at first because I only buy used cars with much less miles on them. The test drive went well and we sealed the deal right after that for a fair price. Since then, I have only had to replace normal-wear items. For an SUV, this car offers a very comfortable ride. I almost traded it in, but changed my mind. I think GM did a bad thing to discontinue this model.

2008 Chevy Trail Blazer

No problems so to speak, however the check engine light tends to come on a bit to often . I would think that Chevy would check into this problem for older models and come up with a solution. Thats all I have for now!

Rides like a car but performs like a truck

It's a shame GM stopped producing Trailblazer after the 2009 model year because no other SUV I've owned is lije it, smooth ride like a car but excellent trailer pulling like a truck. I've owned 2 of them, a 2004 and now this 2008.

love my Trailblazer

even though I've had my car 10 years now, I'm still in love with my Trailblazer. I've had some recent issues with a wiring harness that affected how the car ran (it wouldn't) but I feel Iike over the time I've had it, for the most part it's been a gem. The Trailblazer has a truck chassis so, I feel safer and the stuff I can fit in the back is incredible. I've never used it for towing but I've been told it tows a trailer nicely. And it's one of those vehicles you can't buy anymore, so maybe this will be the car I keep as a "classic".

Trailblazer True Workhorse

I have had my trailblazer for 10 years and can’t honestly say it is the best car I’ve ever had. It has giving me very little trouble. early on the tire pressure electronic system was out of whack but was covered under warranty. I got it 2008 used but it is a 2008 car.

Chevy Trailblazer 2008

I purchased my Trailblazer on 11/18/2008, brand new. His name is Morris. Me and him have been through 10 years together. I'm faithful to him. He receives ALL/EVERY scheduled maintenance, including all the other (costly necessities), such as tires, brakes and all that good stuff, UGH. Therefore, Morris has remained faithful to me. I have since paid Morris off but of course there have been some unexpected (costly expenses), due to wear-n-tear. However, I LOVE Morris. I know I will have to part with him some day, which I am dreading, but I will continue to drive him and appreciate the durability of a CHEVY truck!

Trailblazer 2008

My Chevrolet Trailblazer LT continues to run very well and the interior is still very clean. Looks kind of new for 254,000 miles. I have had no major problems with it.I try to keep up with every 3000 miles oil , lube, filter, tire rotation. It is very fun to drive.

Versatility

The reason that I purchased my 2008 four wheel drive Chevy TrailBlazer when i twas new is because I am retired and enjoy photographing nature and so I realized that I would need a vehicle that would take me off road when needed. I have traveled up and down the West Coast from my former home in Oregon and several times across country to where I now live in Virginia, and am looking forward to photographing nature here on the East Coast. I have my vehicle serviced regularly to help maintain reliability and to give me peace of mind that over the years I can still rely on it to get me home.
