That's my two choices basically, Kinda like the idea of the V since it's 6 speed. It would be more fun I think. should add it's not an 09 im looking at 05
On the other hand, the Trailblazer SS might be more practical with the ability to tow a trailer so I can haul my junk around. Little bit more room for the kid.. and it's an 07
What does everyone else think? It's a tough decision, but I'm getting one or the other tomorrow.

I used to have an '07 TBSS. They are a blast and tow pretty well with the air suspension. There is also a huge plus to having something like that where it has no business being that fast.

I surprised the hell out of a kid in a riced out Civic. You should've seen the look on his face when I out-dragged him off a light. I can't even imagine how that look changed when my car trailer passed him too.

The CTS-V would be a lot more fun to drive but I like the sleeper factor and practicality of the TBSS.

Haha thats bad ass! I love TBSS's there fast and comfortable. I dont beleive it takes much to get them in the low 13's. But, I guess your not looking for a car to mod, something fun and practical. I still say trail blazer.

Personally I like the V more. Good looking car with good power. + the 6-speed...
TB SS is nice but I would only go for it if you think you'll REALLY utilize it to it's full potential.
Sounds like you want the V, so get the V!
