Maybe the power of the new V6 is a reminder of what power we had on our '69 327....? I'm just sayin'....
Go test drive an SS with an automatic. The specs for HP & torque for the L99 is pretty much the same as your Trailblazer SS. Coming out of that truck and getting into a v6 Camaro, yeah, it's going to seem gutless when you are missing 33% of the torque and 25% of the HP while only giving up 500 lbs.
