I'm pretty sure BMW developed the X5 in conjunction with pleny of Ring testing...
As for the Chevy, I don't care how much 'tuning' they do, the framework of the Trailblazer is very limited (as anyone who's ever driven one will surely attest). In my opinion, no amount of stiff springs, heavy anti-roll bars, etc., is going to improve the overall dynamics of this very non-sporting truck enough to compete with the mighty X5.
