Default My opinion on the Trailblazer (rental) and a decision

Truck is at the dealership getting the tranny fixed (yes I burnt another one!)
Anyway, they gave me a '03 Trailblazer 4x4 rental.
I must say it rides smooth and I think I'm in love. Very roomy, sound system is awesome for factory, steering is nice, acceleration is a lil sluggish, but picks up nice and shifts nice. Driving something like this just makes me want to get rid of the truck, so I have decided to do so. I'm going SUV definitely, I'm tired of the shitty ride and lack of room my single cab truck has.
Dont have to worry about bumps in the road, or other trucks coming up to me and wanting to race all the time. I'm going to try and shoot for a Denali as my salesman tells me I can get one on a 3yr smartbuy/lease for the same a month that I'm paying now on my truck. Hopefully I will have a new ride in the driveway in about a month, or month and a half.

Danali's are nice but I would not go smart/lease. Before sigining anything, you might want to take a look at this.

only reason I want to go lease is because I get tired of vehicles pretty quickly, and this gives me the option of trading it in after 3yrs without worrying about being "upside down" and also I dont drive a lot at all.
I work about 5 miles away from the house, so I really dont have to worry about the mileage limitation either.

dude, i wasn't squinting, i was trying to look down at the ***** infront of me.....get'cha a denali, my Mom has one and it's PIMP, the interior is sweet...and it's relatively quick for something with only a K&N drop in filter. handles great, and would definatly look sweet with some 20s.
