I know it's not a pickup, but it does a great job on the highway, serves as camper, and with the 26" LCD and Directv, good entertainment for the kids on the long drives.

Not exactly ideal but it's not squatting too bad. Gotta do what you gotta do. I like it.

In the rear I have coil springs from a z71 tahoe which give it a 1.5~ lift and are much stiffer which help a lot with towing.

yes but I'm planning on getting rid of the trailblazer this summer and getting something a little better for towing, seeing as I at most will get one more trip towing the xj with it, it's not worth it

It's not squatting as much as it seems, the ground is slightly uneven.

I would love to get a mid 90's Suburban diesel one of these days. I need something that's 4x4 and has a 3rd row seat.

Ive got nothing against the diesels but I would recommend one with a gas motor. They will surprise the crap out of you. I'll have mine forever
