I have a green, 2003 Chevrolet TrailBlazer. It is terrible and I hate it. We’re actually selling it soon, so I can make space for my real first car. And because our neighbors are in need of another vehicle, we occasionally let them use it for free. Well, when I was walking out to it today, I noticed it was across the street at their house. Or was it?
So I zip up my jacket, lace up my shoes and make my way across the street. Keys in hand, smile on face, ready to hit the open road.
Upon walking nearly to the road, I notice a few things about this imposter TrailBlazer.
I think it wants to fight me.
1. It is tan, not green.
2. It has different five spoke wheels.
3. It’s the Extended, seven-seat TrailBlazer. My TrailBlazer is the standard, five seat version.
Confused, I look to the area where we keep our TrailBlazer under some trees (totally not waiting for a storm to rip some branches off a tree, and onto the SUV. That’s insurance fraud and that’s illegal. Yeah.), and I see it.
It then occurs to me that I was trying to drive a TrailBlazer that wasn’t mine. Hmm. Upon this striking realization, I hang my head low, and make my way back to ‘Ol Not-So-Faithful.
Not going to lie here; I felt really stupid. Thankfully, nobody was there to see me do this.
Hopefully.
What’s Oppo up to?
(And yes, the title is a reference to the J. Cole song. He actually works out at a gym about 20 minutes from me, so that’s cool I guess.)

The trees will only fall on cars you want to keep. Sorry to disappoint.
(Tried this for a year and a half with my old car)

Well. I do call it the 420 TrailBlazer. Green helps.

The only upside to the TrailBlazer, in my opinion, is that the turning circle is great.

Why did you buy a car you hate? Or did you grow to hate it?

Once I went to the farmer’s market and returned to my car. It was unlocked and missing interior trim. First thing I thought was oh shit I left the 7 unlocked and someone fucked with it. Nope it was another car like mine unlocked and I looked like an idiot fiddling with it. Slowly backed away from the imposter car.

I have owned unique enough cars to not have done this personally, but my wife had a pretty green (color, not car) Alero sedan when we met and started dating, and one time we were leaving a store and walked towards a same-color-green Alero that was one row closer. Confused as why the trunk wasn’t opening at the remote button press, we realized upon getting closer that it was a base model, with cloth seats, and had or didn’t have the pinstripe which her car did or didn’t have (whichever was the opposite of what her car had). Thankfully the owner wasn’t nearby to witness our moment of confused embarrassment.
Hope you can get rid of the tb soon. Few people deserve such punishment.

Worst of all, we’ve had it since 2007.

If you hate it that much this was a missed opportunity for “Tale of 2 Shittiez” or even “Tale of 2 Chevyz”
