Trailblazer, quick ??

I saw one today on the highway, completly stock, but I started thinking and those things are 270 horses, right ? I know they are sport utilities and all, but are they in the least bit quick ??



My friend does also have one and he talks sh*t sometimes.. but thats not the reason for this thread

Not every manual owner can break 15.9 either but we're talking for the majority, and most can outrun Trailblazer.

In comparison, a 345HP escalade (around 5800 lbs.) will go 0-60 in 8.4. A supercharger 500HP escalade will do it a half second quicker. The Max is a lightweight compared to large SUVs. I'm sure the HP/LB ratio would come in handy. I like the trailblazers, they're nice looking (for an suv).
