Why should I also consider these? X

The 2008 Chevrolet TrailBlazer is mechanically similar and nearly identical to the GMC Envoy, which sells at a similar price.

Otherwise, the TrailBlazer is part of what once was the heart of the SUV market, but these best sellers are gradually being replaced by carlike crossovers.

The TrailBlazer is one of the worst-handling and most trucklike of the lot.

Only the Durango feels as cumbersome and uncomfortable, but it's a bit more of a workhorse.

The Liberty, Pathfinder, and 4Runner all have better off-road ability--or off-road-worthy models--with which to redeem themselves.

The Liberty is smaller and more maneuverable, and the Pathfinder especially stands out for having a good ride and more luxurious interior.

Then there's the formerly best-selling Ford Explorer, which is still perhaps the most direct competitor to the TrailBlazer.

Ford has done a much better job keeping the Explorer updated in recent years, and though it also has trucklike underpinnings, the Explorer rides and handles far better than the TrailBlazer.
