I just bought one from an old couple in kentucky . They got it with 84k miles 6yrs ago. And drove it 30k miles in 6yrs 😢. Soon as I get it stuff started happening 😝they let it sit to much! Lol
@@blautens I had the 6.0 in a 05 3/4 ton truck and had more than a few problems with a sensor and a wire in that spot. My shop said,it was not uncommon for it. An it was hell to get to.
I’m honestly surprised you haven’t had a problem with the sensors either. I have my ‘07 & she’s currently sitting at 310,250+ miles & the main issues I’ve had (outside of basic maintenance) was having to get a new water pump twice, slight oil leakage (I sealed it myself so it’s cool) & the sensors at the back of the motor. Honestly, if you take good care of of these cars, they’ll last
So they said its almost 2 seconds quicker than a standard trailblazer...so they got to 60 in under 7.8 with the I6? I mean, honestly, i have an 06 4.2L trailblazer.. its not a slouch in 1st and 2nd, but under 7.8? I thought it was more like 8.8...
@fuze3522 nah lol. I just never actually counted. Everyone always says they're slow. 7.8 isn't bad for a 2006 SUV. My 06 monte carlo is 7.0. My trailblazer has about 125k on it but runs great.
@@timmypstyle yeah ha im just joking around, 7.8 is plenty quick enough. Some cars feel slower than they actually are. I have an E90 328i that does it in about 7 but ive recorded my fastest 0-60 time of 5.99 in 24 degree weather with a perfect launch. Plenty quick enough for me
@drawesome821 that's what I thought too but they tested the I6 and talked about the "standard" one in this video. There is like a 40lb-ft difference from the 4.2L yo the 5.3L but the horsepower is only like 12hp difference. So I can't imagine the 5.3 being Too much quicker than the I6.
33,000 in 2006 dollars is $50,500 today, and the as-tested price of $40,000 in 2006 dollars is $61,193 in today’s dollars… people say that “things used to be affordable” while not taking into account just how rampant inflation has become, especially in the last three years. $33,000 in 2006 dollars is $42,364 in 2020 dollars, or an increase of over 8k versus 2024 dollars. That’s what happens when the fools in DC think they can just print money nonstop and send billions upon billions of money that didn’t previously exist to foreign countries while our own country crumbles and our border is wide TF open. The rampant money printing and inflation is simply yet another form of taxation on top of the federal, state, sales, property, and every other type of taxation that already exists. I for one am sick and tired of our government putting US last while they tax the hell out of us and send our tax dollars overseas with zero oversight whatsoever.
@@josephf593 I didn’t assume that you had voted for it, I was just pointing out how the incredibly rapid inflation of the last three years has left many people with a kind of “inflation lag” where they don’t necessarily realize how bad things have gotten. I’m glad to hear that you didn’t vote for the buffoon whose handlers are causing so much harm to this country.
@@timmypstyle This - I'm 6'5" 290 with a bad back, and the TBSS is super comfortable to get in and out of and sit in. Just the right height - sill is level with floor, easy in and out. I can't have a sunroof, though - head touches.
@blautens im 6'5" 225lbs and honestly think I'd be ok with a sunroof in my trailblazer. It has a decent amount of space above my head still. I also just bought a 14 ridgeline and it has a sunroof, and my head has a few inches of space.

10 years too early. It would be a hit today
Nearly 20 years far too early.
@@GreenRobotCat_R4702 Very nice this Chevy Trailblazer, fantastic perfomance
17 years, we still enjoy our TBSS. Still smells new inside actually. But she sits pretty in the garage 90% of the time. Lol

Had any problems with sensors in the back of the motor?
@@grayrecluse7496 No...why?

These things are still quick by todays standards.
Extremely
It's really odd how I don't see these or the first generation SRT8 GC anymore.
ppl always tearing them up or price gauging
You didn't see many of them when they were new either
I see the SS all the time
@@michaelswearingen4596 No the hell you don't. Stop lying.
@@FuckTrumpFuckYouIfYouVoted4Him how u gonna tell me what I see an don't see.... I don't see the srt jeep but I do see the SS, often enough

Maybe they're comparing to the 5.3 V8?

3:53 check engine on the dash is crazy💀
Real
The engine wasn't running jeanyus!
31k or 33k , things use to be affordable!

@phantom0456 amen brother. I grew up in the mid-eighties and 90s Prosperous time, I don't recognize it anymore.
Only cool Trailblazer they ever made, the rest were pure garbage along with the million other rebadged version of these.
The regular ones were good SUVs are very reliable
@@jacobyo99 Yeah, bullshit. Typical GM trash from that era.
@@2H2521 4.2 atlas inline 6 is a great engine. You don’t know what you’re talking about
The 4.2L I6 is pretty much the only GM engine that Scotty Kilmer likes. I'd say that says something..
@@jacobyo99 The engine was decent, the rest of it is pure trash.
Not the Bowtie Brigade!
I want the Saab version
ikr 6.0i lol
Damn my gmc typhoon from the factory was faster but of course the trailblazer weighs more.
Cool, but Id still rather have a Typhoon!
@Butchcub75 You & me both, far more rare & collectible.
I agree but don't know how well I'd fit in a typhoon lol. I'm 6'5"
