Trailblazer? No, but maybe a better Crosstrek?

You know...these aren’t my jam, but with the 1.3T and a real planetary gearset...these seem like they are actually kinda decent. Cheap, decent looking, a fair amount of space, actual skid plate, and a traction control system that can actually put it down. Plus no Subaru Tax.

I mean, it’s a GM which isn’t synonymous with reliability these days...but is Subaru? It used to be, but not lately.

If I was cross-shopping with a Crosstrek, I would look seriously at one of these.

Have driven a few of these, and have to say, especially in the Activ trim or RS it’s a pretty nice place to be.

5 more HP and 30 more torque than my S-10 4 cylinder mower engine :)

Not a bad looking softroader, wonder how it will compare to the Bronco Sport.

Now for a proper Blazer, GM

Smaller than the Bronco Sport, and will be much cheaper.
