If you have a little more budget sir, get the LTZ variant.

I'm an LT owner myself and I like it very much! Rear wheel drive, nimble and easy to drive. She doesn't really feel like a big SUV when I drive her.
At first glance, the first thing anyone notices is the size. She's a very big SUV for her segment and obviously it extends to the interior as well. The power of the LT variant is sufficient, I don't think we would be left in the dust that much by the LTZ owners. I got to see a little bit of that when I was tailing numbah5 in QC one fine weekend. Interior, well ... you get the basic refinements, power doors and windows, fabric seats, manual a/c, same head unit as the LTZ owners sans the steering wheel audio controls. A little too much of hard plastics on the dash I think. You have a/c vents all the way to the third row with controls on the ceiling atop the second row. The driver can also turn it on and off from the console.
If you're looking for a big suv with ample amount of power for a growing family, high driving view and best-in-class wading depth (over 2.6 ft!) I would recommend the Trailblazer LT. Like any other manual transmission, you'll hate the traffic. However, I'm used to driving manuals so being a daily driver is ok for me.
Some things that you might want to also allocate some budget for are: new rims and/or rubber (16" is just too small for this brute), leather seat covers (you can haggle for this from your SA, but hey quality seats will not be free. If you got kids, this is a must), paint protection (yeah, the bigger the panels the easier target they are for dings and scratches), and P800 (because you will join the Chevy-Trail club!)
Good luck sir!

One of my negative feedback about TrailB is the Air Filter, mahirap linisin dahil yung housing casing is not clip type but screw plus you have to remove the air vent so you can pull it out.
Tried to canvas Hurricane model air filter but wala pa akong response kung available or I have to bring the air filter for precise spec.

as soon as i can get the TB LT..i will be joining the club..hehe

Sir, I've read some of the comments regarding on the problem of the alternator, stabilizer links, knocking sound sa transmission when idle, the stiff steering in turning left. how true is this?
What actions have been done by Chevrolet on these problems?

[Jone]

pare im telling you you wont be disapointed with the trailB... ride is excellent... power excellent... the over all feel of the car is top notch... and its bigger than you think... it dwarfs the fortuner or montero.

With regards to the alternator, 2 pa lang nagkaroon ng ganyang problem and was immediately fixed. albert_b and ram_angle are the 2 owners. Stab links naman, nagiging loose pero nadadaan sa retightening at hindi na bumabalik. Knocking sound when idle, it's not true, same thing with stiff steering.

Hi mga bossing, ask ku lang sana who among you purchased the AVT HEAD UNIT along with headrest, backup sensor and camera for your new Trailblazer? Ok ba yung GPS and does it come with TV tuner?

Salamat!!!!

Sa kulay it is your prerogative if given the choice, kasi dito Luzon most of us , hindi nasunod ang preference choice of colors but whatever available that you can drive home, grab it without hesitation. Meron siguro pang test drive unit dyan sa cebu , try to explore , most of us here hindi na nag test drive. Good Luck

Problem with alternator before pero same day napalitan yung akin. Efficient!

I recommend royal grey. Royal color yun!

[albert_b]

1. silent lang pag lock and unlock, only have flashinglights for confirmation. However if you want a sound confirmation when you lock, just do a double press on the button. This is only for the lock function.
2. Yes, normal lang ang isang fog lamp. However, you may have a bulb placed in the other side as well. Madali lang yun kasi may abang naman, bulb lang wala.

[rhounael]

if interested u can txt or kol me at 0915 131 7481

I checked the spare tire and its mounted on steel rims only. This is disappointing since this is the LTZ variant already.

[RTS]

At first I was disapointed also about the undersize & material of the spare tire, but I found out later na it is clearly stated sa owner's manual about what to expect sa spare tire

[lloydevony]

Just reserve the TrailB, available by the 3rd week of 4th week of June..
