So my parents are thinking about a trailblazer or an envoy for me but I have some concerns...
first off, anyone know about how well they run, my mom has and envoy xl or whatever and it runs great, but i wasn't sure if hers was an exception.
also, has anyone done an install on one and how did it go...(speakers, running wire, head units, etc., etc.)
also, i want the slt version with the bose sound system and steering wheel controls. what problems would i encounter with the bose system. also, could i hook the steering wheel controls to a new HU if i were to get one??
My mom has an '06 Envoy SLT. They are pretty nice. Doesn't have the Bose system in it but it sounds pretty good with the stock speakers. Should sound real good with some components and a sub or two.
well unfortunately it seems like some of the ones i'm looking at have the bose because i want options on it, but would it present a huge problem if i'd be rewiring everything. my jeep had the stock infinity system but i completely took it out and i thought i could basically do that with the new car too.
Ooh. I forgot about onstar. Don't know how that would work. If you aren't using onstar it wouldn't be a piece of cake but it wouldn't be horrible. I rewired over a few systems like that. Just have to trace wires or run new ones in some places.
As for how it runs, my sister has a trailblazer and my grandma has an envoy and both have ran great from day one.
the onstar doesn't have anything to do with the stereo......I have steering wheel controls and onstar in my blazer, I've never had any problems. and I recently pulled out my onstar computer so I could put tow ropes in that cargo space
M.S. - - - What is wrong with early v6 motors (I was planning on getting the early v6, not the v8)
My mom's 2005 has the v6 and it runs strong. is it not a strong engine? (I'm serious in the question, I don't know either way and you sound much more knowledgeable on the topic)
yea the onstar i didn't think would matter. Thieves, have you changed the headunit?....
haha lowlife, i highly doubt my dads gonna dish out the cash for me to drive a trailblazer ss
