For the most part this car has been incredible. It handles great in the snow, is incredibly sturdy and can handle bumps in the road like they're nothing. It also conserves gas much better than my Jeep. However, in terms of problems, I have experienced things within my year or having it that I never did with my Jeep. I had a head light go out and a tail light recently. My speedometer is off by 5 mph and my tires seem to lose air quickly.

When I first purchased my 2003 Chevy Trailblazer it was 5 years old and had 65000 miles on it. The Trailblazer was great in the snow, since it had 4WD, and had plenty of room to fit all my friends and family for weekend trips. However my love for the vehicle was short lived. There was always something going wrong with the trailblazer even though I always did the recommended maintenance, it constantly needed work. The styling on the outside was such that anything thrown off the front tires would hit and chip the doors where they flared out. The back hatch stopped working when it rusted shut because salt, water, snow and mud would get tossed under it while driving. I had trouble with the electronics in the door, the transmission, 4WD, and the fuel pump. Overall I would not recommend the car to anyone.
