It drives like a cadilac and can do what a hummer can do with ease and style. Chevy has made a miralce mobile with this vehicle. It allows me to have a beach front property wherever I go with the versitility.

I fell in love at first drive - couldn't wait for mine to be delivered. We have over 10000 miles and have enjoyed every one of them. Having owned and deiven several vans and pickups, I can say that this is the most enjoyable vehicle we've owned.

I must say I love this truck. It rides like a big American sedan not a truck. But it is all truck and will carry anything. Only problem I had was the front drivers window got stuck down from ice build up. GM replaced window regulator. Power steering box was replaced, not a common problem.

I had many options to buy a truck but loved the overall style of the Avalanche. The ride is very smooth even with the z71 package. I really haven't had to use the rear window bit yet but it looks simple enough. This is a big truck that takes some use to backing up etc. There are tons of options available on this truck and mine has all of them which really make this a $40,000 vehicle. I already have 7,000 miles and no major issues EXCEPT the a/c expansion value which is located on or very near the fire wall makes a lourd sound that is annoying. This shouldn't be in a $40,000 vehicle. Overall, very pleased with the vehicle.
Good

Totally awesome truck. I have the fexibilty of a 4-door and a truck. Plus it looks good. I haven't been satified with any vehicle since my 1991 Z-24. I've had a Blazer, a Malibu, a S-10, & a ford car. The Avalanche is big, I feel safer when I am driving this truck. Its easier for my 2 kids (7 & 8 years old) to get in & out. Suprisingly the gas mileage isn't that bad. I comute over 500 miles a week and average 17 miles per gal. The preformance is OUTSTANDING. The looks AWESOME. If something happened to my truck I would replace it with another one.
I LOVE IT

over the 45 years of driving i have owned all of GM name plates. I cant think of any that i have not purchased. the chevrolet avalanche has surpased all of my former trucks in just about every way. the first thing i noticed was the handeling,its also fun to drive. this truck gets alot of looks and people stop me many times and ask how i like this new look. The number one thing is that my wife drove it on a test drive and loved it as did my black labrador. once you drive a avalanche you will be hooked....

purshased the vechcle nesw at the end of 2002. the vechicle is fun to drive and gives you great overdirve performance in the ford explored i had when yu went up a hill the over drive would kick off and eave yu hanging. This doesn't. one thing the vechicle comes with a different size spare tireand its not the same make of tire. it had 190000 miles on it/ the dealership need to improve their customer relations as well in the service dept. not ver swift sorry courtesy but you flunked the satisfaction test.
great for tall drivers

I owned a 2002 Z71 and loved it. purshased the 2004 due to my experience with past Avalanche. Chevrolet has done a wonderful job with this truck. Can not think of anything they have forgotten. However the book says I was to receive headphones for rear and am having a problen with dealer,they say does not come with mine. Why is it written in booklet if not true. I do have the bucket seats. Whats up with this? I got so many options think they would stick to their word.

We have just bought a light blue Avalance. It is an excellent for both an outdoor lifestyle as well as for someone who enjoys quality and comfort. The dealers gave us a 24 hour test drive and then a greal deal. They have a $5K cash back offer and we bought it new for under $27,000. This is a car that we plan to have for many years to come.
Love it

Just purchased it and took on trip of 2000 mi. Loved the comfort, handling and looks. I have owned pickups, Cadillacs and other GM autos and this is by far the best vechicle I have owned. It has as smooth and quiet ride as any vehicle I have owned. This is the first 4WD I have owned, yet the ride is unbelievable.

The Avalanche is the best truck that i have ever owned. This truck can haul butt down the road and the sound of the engine roaring is one of the best sounding chevrolet egines i've ever heard. the ride is great. you never get boreed of the XM radio. this truck does 80 mph at only 2000 rpm's. my suburban did those rpm's at 50.
best truck ever built

This is by far one of the versital trucks ever built. I'm somewhat of a do-it-yourselfer and have had no problems transporting 4x8 sheets of drywall, all without it being exposed to the rain. Fun to drive truck gives you both a pickup truck and sportutility all in one.

I have had a great time with my New Alvalanche. It took me a month just to get use to all the nice gagets and features. I still get a kick out of driving down the highway and making my side mirriors fold in at the same time. The conversion is always a thing of beauty. I have been asked several times to perform the change and I always deliver on the request. When I am behind the wheel I feel large and in charge. The wheel span on this vehicle in incredible. Got Alvalanche Will Travel!

My car is very exciting in all kind of ways. It is exciting to drvie, the interior and exterior. The color is red. I have been every where in this car it never lets me down. I've been to Branson,MO, Disney World, Gatlinburg,TN Memphis,TN and lots of other places. My Avalanche is an excellent car.It also pulls my 28ft. camper. I have been toalot of places with it too.

Traded a 01 Tahoe Z-71 for the Avalanche. So far, I love the vehicle. More room and storage than my Tahoe, and rides better. We just packed for the weekend camp trip with a 5000lb tailer, 2 inflatables, cooking BBQ, fishing gear, bikes, tables, chairs, etc, and we still have room to spare!
The best vehicle ever built, bar none

I have driven from Tucson to Las Vegas once and from Tucson to Laughlin, Nevada twice. The Avalanche drove beautifully, the ride was comfortable and the mileage was great. I have used it to haul 8' x 4' drywall, which i layed flat in the bed. It fit in there perfect and I was still able to close the tailgate. My opinion of this vehicle is that it is the greatest thing since sliced bread.
So far so good

Im very happy so far. We took a trip to Wa.from So. Cal. The ride was great, only problem was on a long stait away, I decided to open it up and at a 100 mph the computer shut it down to an idle untill I dropped under 95mph. Did not even feel like we were doing 80mph.
Make sure u know what u r getting

Purchased the Avalanche z71 on May'03. Love every minute of owning this truck. I love the design (even though it may be controversial) and the versatility. Fuel mileage is on par with other trucks of its class, so it does get good mileage compare to other full size trucks. As a truck, the ride is exceptionally comfortable, handling is good for a vehicle this size, and interior features are quite nice. As an SUV, however, the interior is quite spartan compared to other SUV's. But then again, this is not a SUV, nor is it really a truck. That is the beauty of the Avalanche!

The Chevy Avalanche is a great vehicle. I traded my Silverado Ext Cab and I haven't looked back on that decision. The ride is solid ...firm ...and comfortable. I have a deck boat and a pontoon boat; towing is now effortless. I wish I had a nickle for each compliment about the looks of my Avalanche....I would be well on my way to my first payment. :-) This is the best vehicle I have owned....!!!!!

When I first saw it I thought it was the ugliest car I'd ever seen. After driving it I decided it was so ugly it was cute! It rides like a luxury car, has plenty of interior room, and can haul 2 motorcycles and 6 adults comfortably. This is the best vehicle I've evr owned. My sister and my father have both bought their own, and couldn't be happier. Thanks for a awesome car.

Very smooth ride for a truck. The turning radius is surprisingly small for such a large truck. I haven't found any structural defects, although there are some cheesy plastic parts used for the interior. It's not the most economical, but you should,know what to expect before you buy it. Chevy has a definite winner with this truck.

We absolutely love our Avalanche. The ride is so smooth and it has a roomy feeling. It takes bumps so well. We test drove an F150 4dr Super Crew and the seats weren't as comfortable and the feel of the overall truck was not as solid nor luxurious.
