Ok, I'm the new guy, so be easy on me. Traded in my Dakota bike hauler for a 2008 Trailblazer with comfort-ride suspension and very comfy electric seat. I've had the TB since 10-10-2010, this was our first off-roading exploring trip with it. The title will get you there, the trails were mostly 1.5, a lot of 2.0, and just a bit of 2.5 nearing 3.0. We were laughing and playing 'kick the can' on the hard parts! Clang, clang! First mod will be removing the can and doing a side exhaust.
I did Scouts back in the day, my favorite was an Orange '76 with track-locks in both ends, Rancho suspension, 8K winch etc. I didn't consider the TB as a real off-roading vehicle, but after our adventure I'm making a list... Very happy to find this site! Anyways, blah, blah, blah. Pictures! The filename starts with the time, hour-minute.
