  Great Vehicle - 2004 Chevrolet Avalanche
  By Russell McPeake - July 27 - 8:58 pm

  I bought my Z66 new, it is the best vehicle I have ever owned. I have over 124,00 miles on it, have done no repairs at all, just maintenance. I still have the original brakes and they were checked when I put new tires on a couple of months ago and they still have 65% of the pads left. I have room for 5 people and can carry all their luggage and then some. I didnt buy it for the gas mileage, but I just drove on vacation and got around 19 mpg, and that was both highway and riding around mileage. I cant complain.

  2002 Avalanche Review - 2004 Chevrolet Avalanche
  By Dueeas - March 16 - 2:00 am

  I bought this one used, but Im happy with it. It has some air noise that I dont like, but the ride and performance is great. I havent had it for a year yet, so Im still learning.

  I have owned 8 bmws 4 mercedes 1 porsche,and about 8 others in my 26 years of driving. My Avalanche is the best multi-task car/truck I have owned. Comfort looks and room are the highs, power, gas and transmision are the low points. My last car was a BMW 4.6; The other ones I have now is 04 SL500, Audi Allroad.

  Its big! - 2004 Chevrolet Avalanche
  By phillipsjohnr - January 28 - 10:00 am

  Ive owned a Jeep Cherokee, Isuzu Trooper, and Toyota 4Runner and the Avalanche is by far the roomiest SUV Ive owned. Its also the most powerful. While the model I bought doesnt have all the amenities of past vehicles, it does have everything I want. It drives smoothly and quietly. The Bose stereo with XM it decent and Im still experimenting with the Midgate conversion options. The only downside - filling up with gas...

  love it love it love it - 2004 Chevrolet Avalanche
  By Robert H - July 4 - 2:00 am

  this truck has won MVP during our recent move. the versatility is great. just like the review says, amenities and feel of a suburban with the utility of the silverado. i can haul family around or lumber. the amenities are great, comes with dual- zone climate control, GREAT bose stereo with in-dash 6 disc changer. (stereo includes subwoofer). i dont know what people are talking about "cheap interior feel"... it feels luxurious to me. a hefty curb weight makes for sluggish performance though, and gas mileage is abysmal. the onboard computer is more amazing than in my previous BMW.
