Re: Smoked by a Chevy Trailblazer!!!!

Fern,
There's no such thing as an "inline V6". All the cylinders are either in one line or in a V formation. The Trailblazer is an I6.

It happened to me. One pulled up next to me at a light and kept creeping up, trying to anticipate the green light. I kinda got the feeling he wanted to run. When the light changed, we both punched it and I pulled about half a truck through first. Halfway through second, he was next to me and third he just walked me as if I left my parking brake on. He left me wishing I had a supercharger or at least lower gears and headers. Hopefully Dodge will get on the ball and design an engine to put out more power and torque for those of us who like to get on it every once in a while.

If Chevy does twin turbo an inline 6, I'm selling the D and buying a Ford SuperDuty with a turbo diesel. A D will never be able to touch a twin turbo I6 even with a naturally aspirated Hemi.
