Amazing 7 pass SUV

I bought 2006 EXT in Jan 2021 and this thing is awesome. I normally only buy NEW vehicles. But this was a bargain and I have put 18k miles on it in 16 months and it’s a beast. Runs great, I only done maintenance items and drives great. I have a 16 Miata and 19 Sienna. This rides great. Again I normally only buy Brand New vehicle and surprised how well this now 16 year old 143k vehicle drives and performs. I owned a new 2003 5 passenger LTZ and this drives just as good. This is something GM should of kept in production instead of replacing with the Traverse.

Love my “man van”

I got BRUTIS back in October. Fully loaded 2006 EXT with V8 and 4x4. It feels like I am driving an expensive luxury car. It has plenty of room for cargo and passengers. It also has a brush guard that was added on before I bought it. I was brought up in the large station wagon era and have previously owned 2 Caprice Estate Wagons. The EXT is more of my personal needs because the vehicle sits high, the seats face forward and I have space behind the third row. I could have easily purchased a minivan but I love the Style of the EXT. the seats are quick and easy to fold and the rear doors open wide. My friends call it a “man van” because it looks masculine with the brush guard. The fuel mileage is as expected....I average 14 mpg.

One of the most reliable cars I owned

Bring back the Trailblazer!

Wonderful for hauling and transporting the family in style. This truck is a workhorse but really nice inside for everyday use. I recommend this vehicle.

12 year old used car

Great shape for an used car of its age. Handles and drives much better than my last vehicle that was the same age. Can defiantly see this thing lasting many more years.

Great Sporty People Mover

I really like this car. It has a solid and responsive engine and drive train, hauls a lot of people and all their stuff, has great towing capacity. With all that power, the drawback is not fantastic fuel mileage. It?s still comparable with other cars with the same features though. Overall, an excellent car.

Great for traveling on a long trip

The LT is great for trips. It hugs the road and is nice for groups of 6-8 people. It handles well in bad weather.
