FireRescueSS Posted October 6, 2008 Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 That isn't the only plant that makes the Trailblazer/Envoy is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hankg42 Posted October 6, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 That isn't the only plant that makes the Trailblazer/Envoy is it? I don't know for sure, but the opening sentence is kind of ominous... "General Motors is ending production of its slow-selling mid-sized SUVs on Dec. 23, two years earlier than announced in June."

FireRescueSS Posted October 6, 2008 Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 BUT, ALMOST every owner of the Trailblazer/Envoy loves them... don't see why they would end all production of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big O Posted October 6, 2008 Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 (edited) Its the evil fate of a 'tweener' ... a decent compromise for a truck and car but not a replacement for either. Cars are almost as big and get superior fuel economy. A little rugged and tough enough for some truck stuff .. but not able to satisfy the true truck tasks.

CoolBlueSS Posted October 7, 2008 Report Share Posted October 7, 2008 We traded our Tohoe for a mini van about a year ago. It actually has more cargo area than the Tahoe, easier for the kids to get in and out, and gets alot better gas milage. I bet 80% of SUVs, big and small, never see any kind of truck type duty. That number might be a little conservative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ItsJac Posted October 7, 2008 Report Share Posted October 7, 2008 (edited) Thats sad to see, aleast I got mine. Weird they would stop making the mid side SUV, I see many trailblazer and Envoys all over the place.

Berry Posted October 7, 2008 Report Share Posted October 7, 2008 Weird they would stop making the mid side SUV, I see many of tarilblazer and Envoys all over the place.

cwest94 Posted October 8, 2008 Report Share Posted October 8, 2008 (edited) Wow, thats crazy. I can see them pulling the plug on the TBSS but the entire lineup? There isn't a day that goes by that I dont see at least 100 of these SUV's on the road. Didn't think they were bad sellers and I think it's bad to pull the plug on the entire lineup.
