i would go with the jeep grand cherokee. mainly cause its been arround for so long.

but ls2 vs hemi? its all in the name. plus. the jeep is more powerful. has on demand all wheel drive. vs available all wheel drive on the trailblazer.

all in all. i wudnt buy either one. but if they were the only two cars available. i would prolly opt for the more powerful srt8

as if we didnt have enough SUV drivers on the road. that think there cars are civics. this is getting out of hand. we dont need faster suv's there should be a school that suv drivers have to take/test they have to pass. cause the way thease ******* drive. just the other day this dude though that just cuase he has a 4x4 trailblazer that it means he can go faster in the snow. come a stop light. he slams the breaks. cant stop intime. turns the wheel. hits the curb. does some wierd roll ---- and hits the telephone pole.

i wud prolly go for the ford adrenaline. even tho its less powerful.

mainly cause. its basically a f150 lightning. with more room for other people. and the seats look comfy as ----. plus the added awesomeness of awd.
so yep. thats it.

having a big powerfull gas suv is kind of pointless. its not like they're for racing. Id just get a diesel 4x4 truck. thoes new dodge srt8 cars arn't to bad though.

It hurt to read that. Sentences can be formed with more than about 5 or 6 words, you should try it!

I would be all over that Trailblazer. All Jeeps have looked extremely gay since the early CJ and some of the mid 90's cherokees and such.

no. i mean. as in like. when ur going down the freeway. and u see a dude zip by you doing 120+ mph and zipping in and out of traffic as if there car could stop on a dime. meaning as if like they think theyre cars are smaller than what they are.

yeah but the chevy with nitrous and a cam could make an easy 550-600. i dont know what the hemis are capable of but with that simple of a mod to the trail blazer and youve got a shitload of power. the cherokees have been around longer, yeah but the chevy has been making that engine for much longer than they have had the hemi out , not to mention that chevy has been in the performance scene for much longer than jeep. they have worked more with the design of there cars, i mean look at how long the corvette has been around and the camaro and to think that trail blazer has so much of the corvette design into it. i guess i would probably have to go with the chevy

and you honestly think our stock honda brakes were designed to stop us from doing 120 miles an hour to zero in the snap of a finger. give me a break. at least they are designing these things around stuff like that. thats what these suv's are being designed for is to go fast and handle and to stop.

i didnt mean the srt8 and the ss trailblazer. im talking about suvs/trucks in general.

that 120 mph thing was an example. what about the **** that zip in and out of traffic? or the guy that waits last second before jumping from the left lane 3 lanes over to take an exit? or the dude that see's your blinkers on. and still decides to tail gate you. till the last second. and ends up making a sharp turn to avoid hitting you. like some dude said. back in the day. people had all the hp in the world. but they didnt drive arround there hp. they drove arround there stopping power. and thats what kept everything cool, no if backthens muscle cars were in the hands of people today. ----. we would have alot more car accidents than we do now.
