Nothing for nothing, but thats probably not the first option Id think. You could have gotten a 2wd or 4wd Tblazer with the 290hp I-6 for about teh same price.
I would opt for the Vue over the Tblazer because of the nicer interior (Vue was just redone and looks great) but if I were to get a Theta SUV, it would have been the Nox or the Torrent. Larger capcity and flexable seating are sweet.

the most i'll be towing is a couple 4-wheelers or a small boat at most. i do like the trailblazer al but its a little big for my taste. i had to drive one up from PA to NYC one day and you never really notice how big that thing is until you're trying to weave through traffic with it. the vue gets a ton more power up top that the nox just lost wind and gave up after about 3k. the 2 main things that really strike me about the nox are the styling and the flexible rear seating. since the truck will get a lot of highway and commuting mileage i think the unibody design will be adventageous for me.
