Or do some research.It's no secret that the F150 has less hp than it's competition in the 1/2 ton class.

speaking of SS's, have you seen the 07/08' Silverado SS concept? The second chevy releases their Reg cab 07s im going test driving. Their concept SS silverado looks nice. 427, T56

Well if you have a sport truck usually they tend to be regular cab short box truck the Silverado SS is nice but It isn't powered by the 8.1 I was a 454SS owner and I really wanted to buy the new generation Silverado SS when they were flaunting the idea of a reg cab with a 6 spd. Well I hope they make a reg cab SS truck with the 427 with the T56 but they way they went before they ended up with a AWD extended cab truck which in my opinion should not have an SS badge to me an SS badge means BIG ENGINE AND HP and limited production or atleast a good looking vehicle that deserves it. The SS trailblazer on the other hand deserves it 400HP.

Regarding the Trailblazer, I think GM discontinuing them because they see the way the market is going. They will sell unibody crossover vehicles for hauling people and the body on frame Suburban/Yukon vehicles for towing. The Trailblazer/Explorer size body on frame vehicles are inefficient (heavy and thirsty) people haulers and not large enough or powerful enough to be a good tow vehicle.
