Default chevy Durango?

Anybody know what the chevy version of a Durango is? All I saw was the chevy logo and a ss badge as I pulled up behind him at the light. After that, we both stomped it, and, as I got further and further away, I couldn't see **** on his grillbecausemy side mirror was vibrating like a leaf on a tree. That was pretty much the best looking thing that I've seen gmc put out in the way of a sports wagon though.

Please explain.

I have been aMopar man forever, and, ever since my wife and I got married, that's all that she has driven even though we've had a running family discount through her side(gmac) the whole while. This thing lookedlike it had factory duals and 20" rims and did better than most at keepin' up.It pains me to say it, but, with the family discount and my wife bugging me for a new car..........naaah never mind.

Sounds like a trailblazer SS. Those things are sharp IMO.

if you saw an SS badge it was most likely a Trailblazer SS. (LS2 with 395 HP, 400 ft. lbs of torque, in either 2wd or AWD...only available with an automatic though) Supposedly they run sub-14's out of the box, haven't seen any at the local track yet.

mopar98 was right. I didn't believe it, but, nevertheless........

It's gotta be the same torque management/ traction control that's plagueing us all. I kicked that guys ***, yet he's driving a ls3 corvette motor in a quasi- light bodied Durango. wtf???

Oh yeah, we were racing. I don't know what his speedo read, but, when I hit 90, I know he was doing 86-7. Unless of course thats the way he drives all the time.
