I Bought A $750 Chevy Trailblazer! Is It Junk?

[@milesparris4045]

I wish I could find deals like this around me. Everyone wants a fortune for their junk.

[@SoulxReaper1994]

Brother, im 28 and just got my first car I actually own to myself and it’s a Chevy trail blazer I got for free. Traded my dads s10 my brother had blown up after 13 cars given to him before me, and he never kept up on. But now I get a car, taught myself to drive and how to keep up on them myself (for the most part) now the reason I haven’t had a car is because I’ve spend everyday of my life for the last 10 year’s making sure my kids have what they need. My oldest turns 10 in 4 days and as a single father this has probably been one of the best years I’ve had so far and it’s only half way through her.

I own an '09 Trailblazer with 210,000 miles on it. I can honestly say it's the best driving vehicle I've ever owned. It's just smooth as silk.

[@gulliver3644]

I have a 2008 with 125,000. I agree. Best most reliable and comfortable car I ever owned. Heck, I’m 75. I bought my first car in 1963, a 1952 Dodge for 35 bucks. Since then I’ve owned or leased 44 cars and trucks. Not to mention hundreds of rental cars as a world traveling field engineer. Love my Trailblazer.

[@rival989]

I got a 2006 Chevrolet trailblazer 160000 miles on it. Still running. If you still have your trailblazer get it fluid filmed underneath on the frame to keep the frame from rotting. I get mine done twice a year. I wish I would have started when I got the truck but I didn't know about fluid film then, but look it up. Don't just take my word for it. Look it up. I live in the east coast where there's snow and salt so I had to do it but if you plan on keeping that truck I advise you to look into it

[@rival989]

@@oneway1811 245000 is alot miles, if I was you I would have been setting money to the side when it hit 190,000 mi so you can get it rebuilt. When it goes out or when you thought it would go . I Know I'm going to have to get mine rebuilt soon. Probably near the 200,000 . And I got to change out my fuel system I had bought the truck pre-owned at 50,000 mi. I don't know how much damage the previous owner did to the truck before I got it I just wish the truck was better on gas. There's no reason for a truck that size to be so bad on gas lol. This thing burns gas like it's a crew cab dually lol

I love these trucks ! I can find them so cheap with some b/$ issues and fix them . I just had an issue with my trailblazer EXT that has rear ac. The lines were leaking above the gas tank 😣 . Well I found block off caps that bypass the rear lines . Soooo no more leak for $13 shipped to my door next day 😁 . I would get a used ac compressor from a U pull it yard . Or call one of the 200 salvage yards by me and fix that ac but that's just me . Those power steering lines are known for leaking very common issue. Sometimes the P/S cooler will rot and leak also .

Pretty good deal! And the body looks decent for a trail blazer. From what I have seen they are really prone to serious rust issues. Sounds like it has a wheel bearing growling.. I am sure that you will sell it quick!

Get your truck frame sprayed with fluid film and spray the rest of the body that seems to be rusting with fluid film. If you don't care about the body that you just want to keep the car running, look up fluid film

[@24tonybony]

Had one for my first car, the magnets on the A/C clutches get weak causing the compressor not to engage. If you remove the clutch off the compressor pulley you’ll find a few shims, I took two of them out, threw it back together and it worked good as new. Didn’t even have to take the belt off. Of course check if the system holds a charge first. Good luck with the thing!

[@KevinTorres-kb1hh]

Can you in any way show me how you did this ? I have a trailblazer and the thing don’t got AC lol I have Freon in it and it’s full and holding charge but the clutch won’t engage

[@Darthvolvo]

Very nice deal for what you picked up. If the ac is the only issue, I think you came out ahead. The seller probably sold it for that price due to the inoperable ac. The average shop charges 2-3k to replace a bad compressor and related components.

I currently own a 2004 4x4 4.2 l with 230,000 MI, still running strong I occasionally pull over 4,000 lb with it,parts are cheap and it has been one of the more reliable vehicles I've owned.

[@mrrbrown86]

Yea these trucks are great if their maintained. I brought mine at $2000 As is and invested a grand to fix up some parts and she is running like new!, it came with bigger mini monster tires! And the big grill! This is a pretty durable, travel, on/off road lil truck!👍

[@sam_i_am6410]

Too funny... I paid $750 at a city impound auction for my '03 about 5 years ago and it's a beast. Nothing was really wrong with it, gave it a good tune up, swapped out a couple parts, and it's been reliable as can be. The 4.2 Atlas is an amazing engine and easy to boost with stock internals. I wish they made more performance parts for it.

[@DerangedTrapper]

Trailblazers seriously don’t get the credit they deserve. As long as you make an effort to maintain them they’ll run forever

[@thebsmithimages6544]

I’ve owned 4 of these cars and they are absolute beasts. Had one with over 230k miles when I sold it

[@thevacdude]

Not junk, I actually like these, and the Envoy's, too, except that weird XUV thing, that weird one with the weird tailgate. I don't consider the new TrailBlazers to be more than a stupid crossover. I'd drive this.

[@MassiveGarbage]

The new ones are just plastic piece of trash equinoxes.

[@jonlosito2004]

I get that you don't like the XUV cuz it doesn't have a 3rd row. I personally like the Envoy XUV because of how weird and quirky it is especially that quirky rear trunk space configuration.

This was my first car, 2002 LT which was pretty much an LTZ except no heated seats. 6CD changer, rear ac and radio control, large trunk area, I actually really want one again and I feel this is unbelievable you found one for $750

[@brucesahroian1482]

I got one of those! CANT KILL IT! My second one!! Gave the first one to my Daughter! She sold it for 1500! Only thing is I don't like the transmission!

With that trans you always want to tow in drive, not overdrive. And keep the load light. And keep it under 55MPH

[@jackleyman3773]

750 ? Omg you got the deal of a lifetime! I have the exact same car, LTZ . Same exact interior color, outside is black. I currently have over 312,000 miles. Everything ORIGINAL. Motor transmission all original. Those motors are bullet proof and that owner definitely took care of it. Why he sold it for so cheap is beyond me. I wish I saw that ad, I would have gone to China if necessary to pick it up. By the way., I too had a power steering issue with it, it wound up being the metal tubing that runs along that area developed a small pin hole So the entire rod was replaced.. I have a picture if you want. It's on my phone I'll have to scroll and look for it. This was many years ago. Other than wear and tear, I'm going to drive it to the very end. Extremely reliable and very strong. In an effort to save money, I like to repair things myself when I can. Recently I replaced the thermostat and let me tell you, that was a bear. I though the alternator was difficult lol. No rust on mine either and I live in PA . Lots of salt use during winter. Who ever buys that is getting an SUV the way they don't make them anymore. Rock solid.

[@Iliya_sh72]

I bought my 2003 TB LTZ 2 years ago with only 49,000 miles (Japanese spec) for $2600. Solid car. I've kept up with maintenance and it runs great. Super comfortable and cruises on 1800 rpm at 60mph. The only downside that I can think of is its fuel economy. It's not pretty especially nowadays.

[@runoflife87]

Well this car definitely worth buying as the the first one. Cheap, easy to fix - what's notvto like. Greetings from Russia where this gen Traiblazet has been assembled for some time and mostly seen as a luxury SUV.

My man, you absolutely stole it from that guy. He must’ve gotten a new ride because he could’ve gotten another hundred thousand plus more out of that vehicle. I have an 02 Trailblazer LS with 233 thousand plus and the damn thing is a great truck. Running it till it doesn’t want to run anymore. You should hang on to it for a while. Four wheel drive actually is good in Jersey winters here. Unless you really need the money, you can triple yours after you put your touch on it, good luck 👍 😁!!!

[@alfredo9684]

Hey cavalry what i commented lol got same car rn

[@supersaiyenunlimit2]

As an owner of an Envoy Denali (GMT-360) that is the sister of the Trailblazer. The only issue I've had is the front wheel bearings/hub going bad, pretty normal wear and tear type stuff. The trucks weakness is the sway bar end links, those things don't last for jack. Otherwise I'm at 213k on the original transmission and engine (5.3) these trucks are pretty solid as long as the maintenance is kept up with. They do take a good bit of abuse as well, I've never had an serious issues with mine aside from the A/C condenser springing a leak due to age. The I6 is prone to a spider web crack forming in the exhaust manifold, which could be the source of the exhaust leak (forms inside facing the engine).

[@nick0164]

will the exhaust leak sound like a flapping noise on acceleration?

[@manleycrumpton1118]

Just picked up a 07 TB LS at a junk yard, got it for 500 bucks. 50k miles, only thing wrong with it is a broken plastic insert on one of the door handles. It too has the 4.2 just with a less fancy interior package, couldnt be more happy with the car.

[@joseCalderon1976]

I bought a Chevy trailblazer 4x4 LTZ a few years ago with 100k. After fixing a few worn parts, it's been a pretty good commuter. It's a gas hog at 17- 18mpg highway driving, but I like it because it's roomy. I've had a few road trips with it and the family too. I paid $10k for it (maybe too much), but it payed itself off by now. I don't regret my purchase. It's got pretty good HP too. Good enough for passing, merging into freeway etc. It's a good classic Chevy IMHO. It has 172k miles now and still going to strong

[@wun1gee]

I still have my 2005 Trailblazer. I use it as an airplane hauler but it's been great. There are some things to look out for. 1) The transmissions are junk. The first one in mine died at 80k miles. 2) The instrument cluster is prone to dying, but if you're decent with a soldering iron the stepper motor kits are real cheap on eBay. 3) The exhaust leaks are common. They happen in 2 places. Right in front of the cat and right at the exhaust manifold. I've also had to replace the front control arms and bushings. But otherwise it's been great. Mine's the EXT model and the 4.2L has been fantastic. I really wish it was in my 2018 Traverse instead of the 3.6L V6.

Adding a trans cooler to that 4l60e will get you alot more life out of it, especially with towing.

[@wun1gee]

[@justinhoyt3036]

@wun1gee the stock ones are absolute junk. GM might as well not even included one. I put a nice Hayden one on 200k miles ago. I'm now at 315k miles on my 05 TB.

[@johnniewelbornjr.8940]

This must have popped up after I was searching for windshield wiper issues (easy fix) on my '07 Envoy. You got one heck of a deal on this! My '07 Envoy SLT has only 129k on it and still looks great. The past ten years, I've only done front window regulators, a water pump, tires and battery, along with regular services and yesterday's wiper motor/linkage assembly (an hour to swap out and cheaper as a unit than replacing only the electronic module). I only wish I had the 4wd (about the only option mine doesn't have) up here in North Dakota since I'm often out on two-track "roads" in the middle of nowhere. I'm amazed they let this go for so little unless they were suspicious of the possible wheel bearing issue (a common issue) or something.

[@Hugh_Manitee]

I got a 05 Trailblazer EX LT for $2,200 2 weeks ago with 155,000 miles. Runs good and just a few things with it. Tires are crap, oil gauge buried to the left, Filthy seats and carpets, needed a new rear wiper. Very little rust on wheelwells. Has the click click click of the rear HVAC door control but KZbin has videos on how to fix. I'm happy. A 4X4 with seating for 7 for $2,200. It was a no brainer.

[@pi1797]

Those are very good SUV’s. We owned the Buick version a Buick Rainer. Only thing to watch for on them is the transmission. Very common for them to fail. Mainly when it shifting from 2nd into 3rd.

[@RetroCaptain]

If it hasn't sold already, I'll be buying one as well (form one of the workers who built the frame). The frames on all the GM truck line were made at the infamous Budd Automotive in Ontario (now long gone bulldozed). They were well made just remember that the transmission in them is tiny and is maxed out just moving itself around. Get its fluids change yearly both trans and transfer case and differential and it'll last and last. No overdrive if you pull anything use tow/haul gear. Oil spray the bottom and wash underneath weekly if you drive in snow. You will retire still driving it if you follow this.

You got extremely lucky. A little over a year ago, I had purchased a 1998 Chevy Trail Blazer with the 4.3 L V6, and 4 Wheel Drive, and paid $1,100 for it. It soon became a mechanical nightmare however, and I was so relieved when a friend of mine had a 1998 Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer Edition that just needed a battery, fuel pump, Alternator, and some minor electrical work done, and now I have a much better SUV with All Wheel Drive, Moon Roof, power seats, windows, and door locks, and keyless entry, and for a bonus, it also has a super hyper sensitive alarm system on it as well. My friend offered me the sweet deal of an even swap, Blazer for explorer, no money changing hands. I paid nothing for the explorer cash wise, so if I were to sell it, my asking price would be probably around the $2500 range.

I bought an 03 LTZ for my teenaged daughter a year or so ago. I got it cheap knowing that the suspension needed work. My daughter and I replaced the control arms, ball joints, tie rod ends, shocks, struts, brakes sway bar bushings, and sway bar links over the winter. Unfortunately, the thing I didn't catch when I bought it was that in over 250,000 miles, the transmission was likely never serviced. I had it drained and flushed and it failed within 50 miles. That became a hard decision, because a transmission rebuild cost as much as I already had into the vehicle. I ended up getting it done, figuring that the vehicle had at least 50k miles of life left in it if holds up as long as my first trailblazer (on '04 I bought new). She's been driving it daily for about 9 months now with no issues whatsoever. These SUVs have a few known issues that can cause problems but are fixable: Instrument panel dying, front wheel bearings (very easy to change) , and weak transmissions. They never got good gas mileage, you can expect about 18mpg on a good day.

Got a 2006 HHR for $600, oil change and a vacuum job and sold it for $1500. 2008 Impala, $600, oil change, air filter and vacuum job, out the door for $1200.

As a fellow Vermont. I can say it’s hard to buy cars up here rot is terrible all of my dodge neons have died to it now it’s the go south for my favorite car. But good deal

[@casperhoss2952]

Well bought, great video. Thanks for sharing.

I have a 2002 that my family has had since new. My grandpa took good care of it but it’s a costly rig to maintain. Thinking of selling it.

Wow! I’m the next town over from where you bought this. Literally 5 minutes down the road from me. Definitely woulda recognized the Duramax if I saw you😂

I am a fan of this older TrailBlazer.

Love my 03 LTZ. The lines are a real B to replace but the truck is worth it...

[@georgef1176]

It definitely needs a steering rack.. they all do after about 120k When they are right it drives like a car. If you don’t know them well it’s easy to overlook cause when smoked they still drive better then most chevy trucks/ suvs. If there is fluid in the boots it’s smoked. You can get buttons cheap

More likely the power steering cooler located by the radiator. Get a non rusted junkyard replacement and not the dorman.

If u can afford the gas to feed it they are good. Also the front ends wear out ball joints & tie rod ends. 14 mpg city 17 highway with the 4.2. Less in the winter.
