yeah but back in the 60's $54 was more like $540 today. I just see it as a marketing scheme, stick an engine in it and slap on ss badges and a billet grille outline. your gonna get a lot of idiots with that trailblazer screwing around and ending up on their roof, but thats their problem. I just think the SS badge should be used with a little restraint. hell make up a new abbreviation, or something. Even ford got carried away with the GT, putting it on the probe, escort, focus and others. I'm sorry, but back in the day GT like SS meant a whole different thing. thats all just my opinion, and how im gonna feel, if they make the cars handle like an "ss" should then fine.
