"This is a story about one of the craziest burnouts I've ever seen in my life..." Stick around for the end of this one and tell us what Rob should cover next 👇
That wasn't a burnout, that was a smoke-out!! the Trailblazer is (IMO) one of the most underrated vehicles you can still buy whether, it be the Amer-barra 4200 or any of the LS's motors you really can't lose.
@@markross369 yeah I loved my time working at Top Gear with the infamous Trio in that glorious period, good times. How did you know I worked there though?
I love the 2001/2 till 2009 Chevy Trailblazer... I own the first 2002 4200 Vortec Trailblazer LTZ. Love my SUV!!!! Will never let her go.... The SS is very cool.... Tom's look like a very nice build.... He can be proud of her... 😊
What the heck did Rob start working for top gear this is amazing I didn't know this, I've been out of the loop for a minute he is such the perfect guy for this I love his engineering mindset he thinks the way I think this is so awesome
You know what is actually slept on? The Envoy denali. Same as this truck but it has a 5.3 insetead of the 6.0. You can get them at a fraction of the price.
I would definately take my kids to school in this and drive it every day to the market and the go out at night and have some straitline fun against some hellcat corvette etc. Fun little SUV....
I will always be proud of the ones that build their own machine. I feel that doing so is the key to being a car person. I am a hotrod purist to my core.
Tried to build my own version of one of these a few years back. Had an 06 trailblazer with a ss body kit wheels steering wheel. It had a standard straight six with exhaust sounded pretty cool for a v6. Eventually threw a rod and I bought a 5.3 vortec to put in it. Went to jail for a few months and got it stolen from someone I knew. Cops never did anything but not call me when they found it. Lost my ss build but I love these suv's. The ultimate grocery getter.
Ugh. Watching this just makes me regret selling my TBSS all over again. I'm going to have to buy another one day. I've owned better. I've owned faster. But, there was just SOMETHING about that truck...💯
Are those N2O purgers on the rear tailgate spoiler? Door build tho, really like the volk vibe on that big body chassis. Congrats are the awesome build and I look forward to see more from you dude!
Amazing 👏 as soon as I saw the highlight on Google News I jumped right in to see the rest of the video. I would soooo love a TRAILBLAZER SS I own an 03 TRAILBLAZER EXT 5.3 currently 191877 miles and still pushing through hard. Besides a few minor things the only major thing is a dam lifter that has been annoying me for a few years already. Love TRAILBLAZER and hate what Chevy did with the new one 🤦🏻♂️😩🤬 Great looking TRAILBLAZER SS man. Wish I could get my hands on one. So hard to find.
LS2 out of the factory. Love my 07 TBSS. Once it starts showing it's age, I'd like to throw a cam and get some more power out of it, but enjoy driving the shit out of it now! Sweet build!
Rob is such a great guy. I admittedly have never met him, but I consider myself an advanced level judge of character, and im 99.4% sure he is always like this. On cam and off cam.
I disagree. The front end gets lighter and is much more responsive in the turns. I bought my escalade RWD on purpose for these reasons. Roads are maintained for the most part in America and I don’t see any snow here at all where im from. Awd is a nuisance to me and having to deal with it performing simple maintenance is harder and it gets annoying and further complicates things.
I picked up a mint 06 for my parents. They wouldn’t let me buy the SS . Had found one of those as well . The 4200 still smokes the tires like no one’s business 🤣😂👌. Can just imagine what I woulda done to it had they let me buy the SS for them . My old man knew right away 🤦♂️😆l. I want decent gas mileage not a hotrod he says 😆. Awesome vid and build .

Y’all have done a great job lining up the cars, trucks, SUV etc thus far. Maybe do a update on Rob’s 4 rotor, maybe 4wd burnout if it runs 😉
Would love to see you visit someone like Cicio, Duosold, Roadster shop maybe.
Smokey Nagata's infamous v12 supra
I am shocked that Top Gear still exists. Yikes.
That wasn't a burnout, that was a smoke-out!! the Trailblazer is (IMO) one of the most underrated vehicles you can still buy whether, it be the Amer-barra 4200 or any of the LS's motors you really can't lose.
This is the epitome of when you modify your daily driver without buying a new daily driver haha.
And along with it a sheet ton of daily fun!!
You and Top Gear is a perfect fit. Great job!
@@markross369 yeah I loved my time working at Top Gear with the infamous Trio in that glorious period, good times. How did you know I worked there though?
Most definitely😂😎
@@markrichards5928🤯 wow that's cool😎 was Hammond a undercover American? I always liked captain slow😂
Still outshines modern day sports cars. That trailblazer SS was surely ahead of its time. That thing looks ridiculously good!
I regret getting rid of mine. Thing was a beast.
@@LOUCABRASII just bought a saab 9-7x 5.3i and idk the blazer ss could get any better but wow this things incredible
I still have one but this thing out does anything to date for mid 2000’s Vehicles. This thing Rocks…😮
Chevy Trailblazer SS and GMC Envoy Denali
The stance/fitment with the Volk ZE40’s is sooo perfect wow
Those puppies ain't cheap either 💰💰💰
It’s so crazy how easy it is for everyone to make a 1000hp these days 🔥🤘 that is the cleanest tbss iv ever seen 👌
American v8's for the win.
Idk about cleanest. But its nice. Jr's showcase has the best lookin tbss imo. Followed by TAF Spook's tbss. search either and see for yourself
@@Clayton_BigsyTAF’s is trash
Another local killing it in the car game. Sick build
Tom deserves this and has always had clean builds
Do you have links to his pages?
Does he have a you tube channel?
Taking on Rob as a host was probably the best move Top Gear made.
Really dig this build and the almost JDM style of it. The side dump is sick. I’d love to drop my kids off in that at school
nothing JDM about it.
I see what he's saying though. Quick glance reminds me of an STI Forester. @THESLlCK
@@rite2beararmsbecause they're both SUVs??
@THESLlCK nah the roofline and the way it's stanced. I'm just saying I can see what he's talking about. Apparently 77 others do too.
@@THESLlCKguy himself said he brought a Japanese style in it
He did a great job on this build. Love the different colors he used on everything super clean.
This thing is stunning! Thank you for sharing this build with us
Honda guy, ex technically, but THAT explains why it looks so good. the Man's got good taste. Fresh Ride man, I'm jealous
Tom is the real deal, legit mechanic! He's done some work on my cars and my friend's cars
The coolest trailblazer I’ve ever seen
Am from Seattle and I can say this guy has always built some sick cars
When I hit the lottery, I am sending this guy a check with a note that says "build me something cool".
Under Pressure is no joke! Really badass shop local to me
Collect memories...not dust. Epic saying on that car.
That build is clean as hell and done with a lot of finesse ❤️🔥
Glad I was able to race that car and in person sounds and looks even better. 🔥🔥🔥
I love the 2001/2 till 2009 Chevy Trailblazer... I own the first 2002 4200 Vortec Trailblazer LTZ. Love my SUV!!!! Will never let her go.... The SS is very cool.... Tom's look like a very nice build.... He can be proud of her... 😊
Lives in the PNW and doesn't like driving it in the rain. That's why it's so clean!
09 jeep srt 8 and the ss was a flex
What the heck did Rob start working for top gear this is amazing I didn't know this, I've been out of the loop for a minute he is such the perfect guy for this I love his engineering mindset he thinks the way I think this is so awesome
This is 1 of the MOST BEAUTIFUL BUILDS I seen .
My friend has one of these and he loves it. It still AWD. The wheels on that truck look 💯🔥🔥🔥🔥
You know what is actually slept on? The Envoy denali. Same as this truck but it has a 5.3 insetead of the 6.0. You can get them at a fraction of the price.
Rob is like the car guy's car guy. Love watching these features with him.
Tom is a talented builder with a beautiful creation
I would definately take my kids to school in this and drive it every day to the market and the go out at night and have some straitline fun against some hellcat corvette etc. Fun little SUV....
Loved watching this thing be at a car show on Saturday then doing roll racing at a old airfield on sunday. Beautiful car
I will always be proud of the ones that build their own machine. I feel that doing so is the key to being a car person. I am a hotrod purist to my core.
Very cool stuff. Love this series.
🙌
Sick!
Sold my 2009 Tbss almost a year ago and well.... huge regret! Solid trucks out the box with an Ls2 powerplant. I'll have another someday. Nice build!
BRO ABSOLUTELY CRUSHED THIS BUILD!!!!
Definitely need to do a video with Zach at under pressure racing!
making me miss my 08 TBSS. sick truck
Awe man I absolutely love that build. The trailblazer ss is an absolutely a perfect platform
Seen this trail Blazer at a car show up here in WA, sounds amazing 🔥 🔥 🔥
Badass! Only thing I wasn't a fan of was a navy blue seats. Also...did he motor swap it? You both keep saying LS3 but the TBSS came with an LS2.
GMC Envoy Denali and Chevy Trailblazer SS both hands down awesome truck's can't wait to Build another truck
Clean build, really like the details and that hood is so SICK!
Ngl, that’s exactly how i imagined how the owner looks like. Great chad
Even Wu-Tang would be proud of that hoodie!
I have a 2006 in superior blue with 78k miles on it for sale they are fun
Tried to build my own version of one of these a few years back. Had an 06 trailblazer with a ss body kit wheels steering wheel. It had a standard straight six with exhaust sounded pretty cool for a v6. Eventually threw a rod and I bought a 5.3 vortec to put in it.

Original Track Hawk👌🏻
I'm picking up a bone stock 06 TBSS this weekend....GOALS!!!! Excellent Video!!!!! God Bless the LS (:
Awesome build! Always loved the Trailblazer SS’es. Love that hoodie even more! 😁
Seeing the newer 2020 trailblazers shows us how far we've fallen as a country😂
Ugh. Watching this just makes me regret selling my TBSS all over again. I'm going to have to buy another one day. I've owned better. I've owned faster. But, there was just SOMETHING about that truck...💯
Super clean build. Great upload..
That's a clean TBSS 😍😍😍
I was so happy when that taurus hit Robs Lambo. Dude is the biggest tool in Michigan.
That SS looks so damn sick and amazing !!!!!!😊
Are those N2O purgers on the rear tailgate spoiler? Door build tho, really like the volk vibe on that big body chassis. Congrats are the awesome build and I look forward to see more from you dude!
Ls2 from factory amazing motor
And that kids is how clouds are made
My brotha Thomas!!! 🔥🔥
as a Washington local having seen this in person, this is fuckin sick!
literally my dream car
Love the build and in my current home state
Sick Build!
Amazing build 🫡
Rob's part of Top Gear USA? Never knew!
Amazing 👏 as soon as I saw the highlight on Google News I jumped right in to see the rest of the video. I would soooo love a TRAILBLAZER SS I own an 03 TRAILBLAZER EXT 5.3 currently 191877 miles and still pushing through hard.

Love TRAILBLAZER and hate what Chevy did with the new one 🤦🏻♂️😩🤬 Great looking TRAILBLAZER SS man. Wish I could get my hands on one. So hard to find.
These things are awesome. Saab had a version as well, the 9-7x Aero (which I own) that looks so much better and has a better quality interior.
I love the roof spoiler. Mine definitely needs one.
That’s makes me want my dream build even more.
That CREAM hoodie is nice 😤🔥
What have they done to the transmission assembly ?
Generally, Trailblazer and other Chevy vehicles have transmission issues.
He swapped the 4L70 to a 4L80 probably a minor build as 4L80s are really reliable, not problematic and can hold 800hp stock.
That is so sick!!! Love it!
I NEED that hood for my saab 9-7x
Track hawk killer since the 2000s
I like how he still has the stock grille inserts. But they should be painted gloss black tho fr.
Nicest looking TBSS ever.
LS2 out of the factory. Love my 07 TBSS. Once it starts showing it's age, I'd like to throw a cam and get some more power out of it, but enjoy driving the shit out of it now!
Sweet build!
Can’t wait to have my ls3 in my Killerado running
TBSS!!! 🔥🔥
Indoors! I guess you got our attention.
the most underrated American SUV.
QUE TAL MOTOR, ME GUSTARIA VER ASI MI CHEVI. FELICITACIONES DESDE PERU
Awesome build 👊🏻
Let's Freakin' Go Dahm, Let's Freakin' Go Top Gear!
Itr recaro seats! Anyone else notice?
Yes jdm itr recaros, fk8 front calipers and rotors, also i converted it to 5 lug
the real super SUV
I'm about to sell my scat and buy a trailblazer... sick! Awesome video Rob!
Is there a build list for this beast somewhere?
You should do a 2004 Buick Rainer CXL with the 5.3 they super rare to see Modified.
Wish there was a buils series on this
Trailblazer SS top 5 cars all time for me
The builder is too kool about this truck 😂😂😂😂 the other guy is more excited than the owner
Rob is such a great guy. I admittedly have never met him, but I consider myself an advanced level judge of character, and im 99.4% sure he is always like this. On cam and off cam.
Agree, nothing like that guy that makes tech videos. His name starts with a L and ends in inus. Not saying any names.
I’ve met him. It’s true. Great guy!
@@RyanWyke Cool. That's nice to know Ryan. Always wondered never discovered.
Definitely a great build, probably will be showned in 1320video soon..
LS2 from the factory
Sick, but a bit silly to remove the AWD of the SS
I disagree. The front end gets lighter and is much more responsive in the turns. I bought my escalade RWD on purpose for these reasons. Roads are maintained for the most part in America and I don’t see any snow here at all where im from. Awd is a nuisance to me and having to deal with it performing simple maintenance is harder and it gets annoying and further complicates things.
I picked up a mint 06 for my parents. They wouldn’t let me buy the SS . Had found one of those as well . The 4200 still smokes the tires like no one’s business 🤣😂👌. Can just imagine what I woulda done to it had they let me buy the SS for them . My old man knew right away 🤦♂️😆l. I want decent gas mileage not a hotrod he says 😆. Awesome vid and build .
That 4200 loves Boost! 500whp is easily achievable but gotta get transmission built.
That's an awesome build, hope to get you to put one of my dream builds together! Could it beat a Trackhawk in a race?
Wow i never saw an SUV with 1000 hp its a beast but i want to request show some classic cars with that hp also especially Corvettes and mustangs
