2 Wheel Drive Z71's!? WTF?! :angry:

[bakerna]

what's wrong with 2WD Z71's? if it increases market share and chevy can make more money selling them then what's wrong with it??

[Chops]

Z71 has always meant 4wd... jesus christ, all it means is more posermobiles <_<

[usa1]

GMC gets a new 310 HP 5.3L engine. Does Chevrolet get this too?

Mark

[Chops]

Yay for trolls. :mf_boff:

A better idea would be to kill the chevy truck line and just leave the truck duty to GMC and have chevy do cars like they should...

[LGRpup]

I cant wait to the new seats and modified interior in the Trailblazer, even though it will just make me mad and want an 05. The seats are the biggest beef I have with my TB, they are too big and bench feeling.

[jro4566]

What's OnStar plus?

What a pity GM doesn't just delete the Chevy truck line.&nbsp; Ford's got the market covered witha&nbsp; superior product.&nbsp; If it ain't a Ford, it ain't a truck.

Chevy trucks.&nbsp; Makes you feel like a woman.

Then everyone would have a truck that is Found On Road Dead.

[ponchoman49]

Yep. Why wouldnt they? Looks like the Gen IV motor? More flow, more go.

Which reminds me. At the NYC auto show, I saw the TB SS model. They lady said it had front wheel drive standard. My jaw hit the floor when I heard her say that. I told her she didnt know what she was talking about.

[jro4566]

So....can anyone tell my what OnStar Gen IV and OnStar plus is? I'm still kinda waiting. LOL
