Just got a deal I couldn't refuse! I purchased from a friend a 04 Explorer with the 4.0l V6 and A 04 Trailblazer with the Vortec INLINE 6. Both have under 17.000 miles and both are 4wd. I have to sell one or the other. The gas mileage is identical but the Trailblazer has about 65 more HP. I like the fact that the Explorer has better crash ratings as I have a three year old daughter. I have driven both off and on for the past two weeks and the Trailblazer seems to have a much less stiff ride (more car like) keep in mind I do zero off-roading and there is no snow where we live. I'm leaning towards keeping the Trailblazer. What made you choose the Explorer over another SUV? Brand loyalty? Reliability? safety? Help me choose!
