The Trailblazer or Envoy would be a better competitor. The 9-7x is purely an on road vehicle.


The 4runner is a really nice SUV. I don't think anything out there can beat it for all round compotence for that price. It's a real SUV and doesn't have to be dumbed down because the Highlander sells along side of it. With the Equinox and Traverse, I see no reason as to why the Trailblazer can get some more off road credentials. That would leave Chevy and Toyota with 3 SUVs each that are off road capable.
