2003 Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT
The 2003 Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT is the larger version
of the regular Trailblazer, providing more space for
seating and an option for a robust engine upgrade. With
a third row, the 2003 Trailblazer EXT can seat seven
with ease, with the thought of cramping the last thing
on a passenger's mind.
The 2003 Trailblazer EXT is at home on the road and
off it, as comfortable carrying families around as it
is hauling heavy goods. In a word, this sturdy SUV is
versatile. It also handles well, ensures safety, and
rests upon a strong tradition of dependability. Like
the Trailblazer, the Trailblazer EXT is offered in a
special North Face Edition, which comes with a wealth
of exterior and interior features to provide both the
appearance and convenience that outdoor lovers are looking
for.
Under the Hood
The 2003 Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT comes standard with
a Vortec 4.2-liter/ 256-cu. inch I6 engine with 275
horsepower at 6000rpm and 275lb-ft of torque at 3600rpm.
Also standard is GM's proven Hydra-Matic 4L60-E four-speed
automatic transmission. However, for those who want
to upgrade, the EXT also offers the brawny Vortec 5300
5.3-liter/ 325-cu. inch V8 engine with 290 horsepower
at 5200rpm and 325lb-ft of torque at 4000rpm. There
will certainly be no shortage of power with either engine,
though the upgrade hammers this point home a little
bit more firmly.
The 2003 Trailblazer EXT's sturdy construction is proof
enough that the vehicle is built with safety in mind.
Braking is also thoroughly addressed, with four-wheel
antilock brakes, featuring a drum-in-hat parking brake.
Dual-stage front airbags are also standard..
Standard Features, Options Packages and Style
Not just a hardworking SUV, the Trailblazer EXT also
presents a comfortable interior filled with convenience
features. Among these are air conditioning w/dual-zone
manual controls, power steering, front bucket seats
w/lumbar adjustment, power windows and door locks, and
an AM/FM/CD player. On/off road tires are also standard,
while the Trailblazer EXT offers consumers a number
of different options packages to choose from.
The North Face Edition is one such package. To the
exterior, it adds such things as lower accent-color
body cladding, body-colored outside rear-view mirrors,
running lamps, liftgate luggage lamp, and even a clothesline.
The interior is given a twist with North Face seats,
mesh map pockets, adjustable cargo shelf, rain-sense
wipers, liftgate lighting, underfloor storage cargo
liner and North Face duffel bags and blanket.
With more seating and an option for a bigger engine
than the Trailblazer, the 2003 Trailblazer EXT is perfect
for people in the market for a vehicle that pushes the
limits of the mid-size SUV category.
