All right, I'll probably have the muffler installed and just leave the resonator for now. I figure if I finally can't stand looking at it anymore I can get an aftermarket one somewhere along the line.

While on the subject of midsize SUVs, I came across this rendering today.

Not too shabby IMO.

Needs bigger meats on those rims.

It's not an Envoy, but if GM built that as our TrailBlazer it'd be a pretty cool transition for me.

That's good looking. I could drive another Trailblazer or Envoy (Have had one of each).

yes looks great.. had 2 envoys loved them both, was sorry to see them go.. Chevy needs to build that!

It's amazing how much better the NA-spec front fascia is over the global model.

Folks in Australia are clamoring for an MCE of their Colorado/Colorado 7.

ssrs2lt · 02-11-2014, 08:13 PM

yes the front looks great..they nailed it..

The Blazer nameplate seems to fit it better. Good looking truck.

I don't think MB has a factory here? What about the other lux brands?
