- They call the Chevrolet Trailblazer SS the Corvette of SUVs for the LS3 small-block V8 that powered it, but this modified version is far beyond what Detroit imagined. With visual references to sport-import tuning machines, a two-wheel-drive conversion and 1,000 turbocharged, tyre-smoking horsepower, Rob has his hands full with this build. CAUTION: includes gratuitous burnouts.

"This is a story about one of the craziest burnouts I've ever seen in my life..." Stick around for the end of this one and tell us what Rob should cover next 👇
Y’all have done a great job lining up the cars, trucks, SUV etc thus far. Maybe do a update on Rob’s 4 rotor, maybe 4wd burnout if it runs 😉
Would love to see you visit someone like Cicio, Duosold, Roadster shop maybe.
Smokey Nagata's infamous v12 supra
I am shocked that Top Gear still exists. Yikes.
That wasn't a burnout, that was a smoke-out!! the Trailblazer is (IMO) one of the most underrated vehicles you can still buy whether, it be the Amer-barra 4200 or any of the LS's motors you really can't lose.
This is the epitome of when you modify your daily driver without buying a new daily driver haha.
And along with it a sheet ton of daily fun!!
You and Top Gear is a perfect fit. Great job!
@@markross369 yeah I loved my time working at Top Gear with the infamous Trio in that glorious period, good times. How did you know I worked there though?
Most definitely😂😎
@@markrichards5928🤯 wow that's cool😎 was Hammond a undercover American? I always liked captain slow😂
Still outshines modern day sports cars. That trailblazer SS was surely ahead of its time. That thing looks ridiculously good!
I regret getting rid of mine. Thing was a beast.
@@LOUCABRASII just bought a saab 9-7x 5.3i and idk the blazer ss could get any better but wow this things incredible
I still have one but this thing out does anything to date for mid 2000’s Vehicles. This thing Rocks…😮
Chevy Trailblazer SS and GMC Envoy Denali
The stance/fitment with the Volk ZE40’s is sooo perfect wow
Those puppies ain't cheap either 💰💰💰
Another local killing it in the car game. Sick build
It’s so crazy how easy it is for everyone to make a 1000hp these days 🔥🤘 that is the cleanest tbss iv ever seen 👌
American v8's for the win.
Idk about cleanest. But its nice. Jr's showcase has the best lookin tbss imo. Followed by TAF Spook's tbss. search either and see for yourself
@@Clayton_BigsyTAF’s is trash
Taking on Rob as a host was probably the best move Top Gear made.
Tom deserves this and has always had clean builds
Do you have links to his pages?
Does he have a you tube channel?
Really dig this build and the almost JDM style of it. The side dump is sick. I’d love to drop my kids off in that at school
nothing JDM about it.
I see what he's saying though. Quick glance reminds me of an STI Forester. @THESLlCK
@@rite2beararmsbecause they're both SUVs??
@THESLlCK nah the roofline and the way it's stanced. I'm just saying I can see what he's talking about. Apparently 77 others do too.
@@THESLlCKguy himself said he brought a Japanese style in it
This thing is stunning! Thank you for sharing this build with us
He did a great job on this build. Love the different colors he used on everything super clean.
When I hit the lottery, I am sending this guy a check with a note that says "build me something cool".
Collect memories...not dust. Epic saying on that car.
The coolest trailblazer I’ve ever seen
Am from Seattle and I can say this guy has always built some sick cars
Honda guy, ex technically, but THAT explains why it looks so good. the Man's got good taste. Fresh Ride man, I'm jealous
Tom is the real deal, legit mechanic! He's done some work on my cars and my friend's cars
09 jeep srt 8 and the ss was a flex
Lives in the PNW and doesn't like driving it in the rain. That's why it's so clean!
That build is clean as hell and done with a lot of finesse ❤️🔥
Rob is like the car guy's car guy. Love watching these features with him.
Under Pressure is no joke! Really badass shop local to me
Glad I was able to race that car and in person sounds and looks even better. 🔥🔥🔥
This is 1 of the MOST BEAUTIFUL BUILDS I seen .
Sick!
What the heck did Rob start working for top gear this is amazing I didn't know this, I've been out of the loop for a minute he is such the perfect guy for this I love his engineering mindset he thinks the way I think this is so awesome
I love the 2001/2 till 2009 Chevy Trailblazer... I own the first 2002 4200 Vortec Trailblazer LTZ. Love my SUV!!!! Will never let her go.... The SS is very cool.... Tom's look like a very nice build.... He can be proud of her... 😊
BRO ABSOLUTELY CRUSHED THIS BUILD!!!!
Tom is a talented builder with a beautiful creation
My friend has one of these and he loves it. It still AWD. The wheels on that truck look 💯🔥🔥🔥🔥
You know what is actually slept on? The Envoy denali. Same as this truck but it has a 5.3 insetead of the 6.0. You can get them at a fraction of the price.
Very cool stuff. Love this series.
🙌
Definitely need to do a video with Zach at under pressure racing!
Super clean build. Great upload..
Clean build, really like the details and that hood is so SICK!
Loved watching this thing be at a car show on Saturday then doing roll racing at a old airfield on sunday. Beautiful car
making me miss my 08 TBSS. sick truck
Sick Build!
Awesome build! Always loved the Trailblazer SS’es. Love that hoodie even more! 😁
Awesome build 👊🏻
Impressive work
Seen this trail Blazer at a car show up here in WA, sounds amazing 🔥 🔥 🔥
I love the roof spoiler. Mine definitely needs one.
Awe man I absolutely love that build. The trailblazer ss is an absolutely a perfect platform
That's a clean TBSS 😍😍😍
I will always be proud of the ones that build their own machine. I feel that doing so is the key to being a car person. I am a hotrod purist to my core.
That’s makes me want my dream build even more.
That is so sick!!! Love it!
Amazing build 🫡
That looks so good 👍🏻
Love the build and in my current home state
An absolute beast!
That thing looks so good!
Such a great series..
Sold my 2009 Tbss almost a year ago and well.... huge regret! Solid trucks out the box with an Ls2 powerplant. I'll have another someday. Nice build!
Super badass and insanely well done 🤜🏼🤛🏼🤘🏼💨
My brotha Thomas!!! 🔥🔥
We love these in Chicago
That’s a bad ass truck!!!!
literally my dream car
BEAUTIFUL
Badass! Only thing I wasn't a fan of was a navy blue seats. Also...did he motor swap it? You both keep saying LS3 but the TBSS came with an LS2.
Its so clean
this car concept its out of the box 🍻🎉🎊
That SS looks so damn sick and amazing !!!!!!😊
I'm about to sell my scat and buy a trailblazer... sick! Awesome video Rob!
GMC Envoy Denali and Chevy Trailblazer SS both hands down awesome truck's can't wait to Build another truck

That CREAM hoodie is nice 😤🔥
Super clean build bro. Definitely passes the vibe check over here on the east coast 😎 is that a z in the background tho? 👀👀
I absolutely love it 😍 This is a monster
Are those N2O purgers on the rear tailgate spoiler? Door build tho, really like the volk vibe on that big body chassis. Congrats are the awesome build and I look forward to see more from you dude!
Rob's part of Top Gear USA? Never knew!
Even Wu-Tang would be proud of that hoodie!
Love clean engine bays wire tucking and and all that takes alot of time and work but its worth it in the end it looks goregous..... Oh and this car is goregous and its not normally something i would be into but i think thats why i like it so mutch its something out of the ordinary and done well gj
I love my TBSS..!❤
Indoors! I guess you got our attention.
I NEED that hood for my saab 9-7x
as a Washington local having seen this in person, this is fuckin sick!
I would definately take my kids to school in this and drive it every day to the market and the go out at night and have some straitline fun against some hellcat corvette etc. Fun little SUV....
WOW AWESOME ! ! ! ! !
I have a 2006 in superior blue with 78k miles on it for sale they are fun
Wish there was a buils series on this
This was so well-researched and informative, thank you.
TBSS!!! 🔥🔥
Now that's badass!
😎👍👍
Clean vehicle smooth
the most underrated American SUV.
Smiles. Yes. Lots of smiles!
Ngl, that’s exactly how i imagined how the owner looks like. Great chad
finally the early 2000s SS
Amazing 👏 as soon as I saw the highlight on Google News I jumped right in to see the rest of the video. I would soooo love a TRAILBLAZER SS I own an 03 TRAILBLAZER EXT 5.3 currently 191877 miles and still pushing through hard. Besides a few minor things the only major thing is a dam lifter that has been annoying me for a few years already. Love TRAILBLAZER and hate what Chevy did with the new one 🤦🏻♂️😩🤬 Great looking TRAILBLAZER SS man. Wish I could get my hands on one. So hard to find.
Track hawk killer since the 2000s
Trailblazer SS top 5 cars all time for me
I found one of those on Craigslist but it was stock so bad ass and rare
Tried to build my own version of one of these a few years back. Had an 06 trailblazer with a ss body kit wheels steering wheel. It had a standard straight six with exhaust sounded pretty cool for a v6. Eventually threw a rod and I bought a 5.3 vortec to put in it. Went to jail for a few months and got it stolen from someone I knew. Cops never did anything but not call me when they found it. Lost my ss build but I love these suv's. The ultimate grocery getter.
