the srt8 isn't doing what Jeep's are meant to do though, which is off-roading. so it kinda takes the soul of a suv out of it...

The V8 in the trailblazer can't hide the fact that the SUV as a whole is a huge pile of sh!t. It is fast, but they are notorious for blowing out rear differentials if you use the V8 like it was meant to be used. The interior is horrible.....full of the cheap GM plastic that I'm happy to say is being phased out on new designs.

I had a good drive of a SRT8 (well, I had it for a week) and it terms of steering and handling it's way short of even a non-sport E53.
