I have over 60k miles and it is still pulling strong. We use it for biking, hauling, back- roading and general transportation. The unique feature is the converter option. It becomes a flatbed truck when needed, yet it is also a smooth ride with a luxury interior. It looks and feels like an SUV on the road, even when carrying a heavy load. The outside panels have held up much better than expected considering the beating we have put it through. Pain and exterior trim still look like new.

I love everything about my truck. It's getting older but it's still a great truck. It has 165,000 miles on it and I've never changed the antifreeze and we just started changing the spark plugs and it's run great until the last few months. I am very impressed with Chevy's quality on these vehicles. I would definitely buy another one!

Before we purchased this vehicle we test drove others, such as pickups and cars. The ride is smooth and it is fun to drive. We used to travel a lot and with our family and dogs, they all fit with comfort. When we need the Avalanche to perform double duty as a truck, it is there to do just that. We can pretty much haul whatever we need to haul simply by opening up the back and pulling down the back seats and pushing the cargo through. I love the fact that they have included cover panels over the back, and the tail gate locks when you lock the truck. That way we can travel with our personal items and keep them safe. The Avalanche has power and is able to pull our boat when we go boating. The air-conditioning works very well. I love the bucket seats in the front. It is a very comfortable vehicle. Some of the drawbacks I have is when the odometer reached 50,000 miles the airbag light comes on and remains on until you get it serviced. Not a fan of OnStar as you pay such an awful lot for actually nothing, except a report they send you every month. We are going to let the OnStar subscription lapse in September. We now have almost 140,000 miles on our Avalanche and still love it. I can't wait until the 2017's come out as I may just get one. The Avalanche serves our purpose and performs exceptionally well.
