Okay here is the scoop, just picked up a NEW '08 Trailblazer 330 today. Everything was fine and dandy there. When I got home and actually got to drive around a bit, I thought the ride seemed a little harsh, especially because others on here mentioned it would have a decent ride. Well when I pulled it in the garage I noticed the rear suspension was bottomed out and would not bounce back up unless I lifted it up. Mind you I drove it literally ten minutes not even half throttle. I know it has been sitting for a couple years. Just froze up maybe? Think it will break loose or do you think its shot? Good thing I'm under warranty I guess. I'll be calling the dealer Monday. The front suspension is good.

Other than that, got it for $3400 out the door. They wanted $3800. They threw in the hitch, full tank of gas, and a 15% discount on accessories so I'll probably get a rear rack.

 

Rear shock should be warranty.Good luck these are great machines

 

Too bad jackass isn't covered under the warranty. The suspension is fine. It was just because the parking brake was on. I'm a moron. I went out and rode it around for a bit tonight and it was fine.

Handles bars seem a bit high for some reason, and I'm tall too.

Adjusted the headlight down a bit which helped. Is there a brighter bulb to help the light out? Some kind of aftermarket kit. Read something about a three light mod but wasn't sure if that applies to this. Would like to just switch the bulb out to something brighter.

It's going to be a long couple of tanks of gas breaking this thing in...

 

I don't know what bulb the Trailblazer uses, but I'm sure you could get a higher wattage bulb. Otherwise you could add the Scrambler headlights. I think they use the same handlebars so they should bolt right on.

Since you get an accessory discount, I would definitely get the rear rack. I put the rack on my Scrambler and now I don't know what I did for the first year without a rack.

 

Haha, actually one of the main reasons I avoided the Scrambler was those lights. Functionally I bet they are awesome but I just couldn't take the look. I'll do some research on some bulbs. They actually had a couple 2010 Scramblers for $5400 out the door. I don't like the new style though so I passed. Hopefully this does me well for while.

As for the rack, yeah I will be ordering it Monday. It will be nice to have and I think it will look decent too. Thanks for the info!
