    im planning to get a used TBZ for trips to nearby provinces in the next two years. our company is gonna scout for sale lands eh

    what are the things I should look out for or watch out for a Trailblazer. any known weaknesses, suspension parts, engine quirks, etc...

    and also what if I say facelift it myself, palitan ko yun buong harapan ng previous face to the current face. will this possible as cosmetics lang or may ibang placement ang mga windshield wipers, radiators etc. company budget is for an adventure lang kasi pero I'm trying to influence purchase to get a used trailblazer instead. why? eh real estate eh tapos haharap ka sa owners, naka-adventure. this company of mine kahit marketing company pulpol talaga sa presentation and image building eh kaya lang yun lang budget. I'm gonna pay for the facelift kung doable naman.

    im gonna get this



    then turn into this

    walang masyadong issue ang aking 2014 tbz apart from its noisy powerplant and "cheap" interior plastics.
    medyo may kabigatan din ang kanyang steering wheel.
    pero yung updated variant has solved all my concerns.
    bakit tbz ang napupusoan mo? akala ko fort o eve ang gusto mo?

    unless the hands doing it really know their stuff, i'd stick to stock.

    personally, i do not care too much, what the agent drives.

    ganito kasi yan, na profile na namin ang mga provincial land owners, and they are very cooperative if say the company looking for land is an American-based company. Now, we can always use mga 2nd Ford Expeds or Navigators, pero since may budget talo kami sa gas. so I figure if I get a black TBZ tapos lagyan ng mga chrome linings, then it could very pass as a FBI like car, alam mo yun tipong American nga.

    hindi naman mamamili ang company ng lupa, front runners lang kami to find prospective lands, yun ang tarbaho namin. so yun Chevy, Trailblazer, Diesel American. diba

    isipin mo na para din kami si James Deakin, kung tuusin Deakin knows the best most frugal car there is sa dami ng na review, na test drive etc etc. pero bakit laging Chevrolet Trailblazer lang ang bukambibig, and in fact yun lang lagi binibile nya, eh kasi nga Amerikano sya, and that is one of his appeal, tapos support nya american car company.

    you cant change the front. only way to hide that old face is with a nudge bar with led bar. or a full on bull bar.

    that's ok i'm going for this look chevy tahoe with a lot chrome trims/lining so that i can make the car more American



    i attempted to contact sellers of the 2013/2014 TBZs kasi eh, it turns out the 900K asking price is still negotiable up to 800K or even up to like 780K. so I think good na to represent what we are trying to convey. tapos halos bago pa car 3-4 years old lang. thats why im asking kung meron man problems etong model nato para kasing ang dali tumawad sa mga tbz owners. eh baka mapasa lang samin ang problema. though it's a diesel naman and yes sa thailand din naman gawa
