I assume your driving had nothing to do with the failure of the parts? If not, ditch that car since you will most likely have future problems. I like the turboed SUV Acura just put out...

Infiniti FX35/45
I'm not an SUV fan personally, but these cars are great. They drive more like a car than any SUV out there. I work at an Infiniti dealer, and I have a lot of experience with these cars and many others. For the money I'd take this over the Porsche Cayenne/S (not the Turbo but thats $$$). I'd also consider the SRT8, but not the chevy (still too cheap on the fit and finish for my tastes). my $ .02
Edit: I just realized that I criticized the Chevy for being too cheap on the fit and finish. I drive an EVO RS which has the cheapest interior of almost anything out there (excluding seats, steering wheel). oops!

I traded my 06 Trailblazer SS in for my Evo. The truck was nice but the best MPG I could get was 12.5. The Trailblazer SS also seems to want to wonder alot on the road. Maybe because of the size of the tires. A friend of mine has one also and has the same problem. My daughter started to get car sick only in this ride. If you do get one I have a K and N filter charger for it.

curiousity do you take your car to track events such at drag, and or autocrossing? i mean my car is running pretty good its only a year old and a half old, but i hope i dont get any problems with it. i plan on keeping this for a hot minute. as for your car i heard the first model years 03 and 04 had numerous problems with them.
