Vehicle was well equipped and the fit and trim were very nice. Since it was in production for a few years all the bugs seemed to be eliminated. the engine was more than adequate for the vehicle but gas mileage while city driving was not very good. The rear panels were a task to take off and stow.

The 2008 Chevrolet Avalanche LTZ was ahead of the curve for its time. You can really feel how solid this vehicle is the first time you go for a ride. The heated leather seats will keep you warm and comfortable on early those morning commutes. The ride quality is unparalleled thanks to the air ride suspension. The Bose sound system is amazing, featuring Bluetooth compatibility, Sirius XM satellite radio, and an auxiliary input for your media devices. The 5.7 liter vortex engine provides plenty of power for towing , yet still has reasonable gas mileage. The only con to this vehicle I have found is the transmission failed around 100,000 miles. Luckily, this was replaced at no cost through an extended warranty. Overall, this vehicle is highly recommended. Its style and comfort still rival the newest vehicles on the road today.
