  Love the versitility - 2005 Chevrolet Avalanche
  By KevinIN ct - February 12 - 10:54 pm

  I spend my weekends doing home improvments and handy work for friends and family. Ive had trailers and SUVs and always had issues. The Avalanche is the best of both worlds. It rides like a dream and It has all the elbow room I need. Its my first one and will buy another one when Im due.

  Red Hot - 2005 Chevrolet Avalanche
  By Andy - February 12 - 12:07 pm

  I was looking for a versatile truck that I could use for hauling as well as room for my family of three. After spending a considerable time looking and driving all options available I settled on the Avalanche and I am glad I did. It is the best purchase of the 20+ vehicles I have owned. I bought a model without body armor because of the improved looks from past models. My only suggestion to Chevrolet is that they improve the interior on the LT models by using less plastic. I have 5000 miles on the vehicle now and have experienced no quality or warranty problemns and getting a consistent 18 MPG. I would definitely recomment this vehicle to anyone.

  My second Avalanche - 2005 Chevrolet Avalanche
  By dasebolka - February 11 - 12:29 am

  I am the Avalanches biggest supporter. This is my second Avalanche purchased in three years. The first Avalanche had an unpleasant encounter with a tree and utility pole. I was able to drive the vehicle home after the accident and had no injuries. The same could not be said of the vehicle. As long as Chevrolet continues to produce the Avalanche, I will continue to purchase them. They are an excellent, safe vehicle for my family of five. The Avalanche gets two thumbs up from this customer.

  Dream come true - 2005 Chevrolet Avalanche
  By avalanchehill - February 8 - 7:11 pm

  Its the best driving vehicle Ive ever owned. You can take 5 people up front and haul all of the luggage in the dry. You can haul a 4x8 sheet of plywood or other materials if needed in the dry .It has two tool boxs that you can use for what ever ,I use mine for a fishing rod and equipment ,umbrella tie downs ,even a extra pair of shoes . Being able to take the panels off of the bed is great ,you can take two panels off and haul a stove or refrigerator ,you dont have to take all of the panels out and you have a bag to store them in .

  Best truck out there - 2005 Chevrolet Avalanche
  By Brian Jermyn - February 3 - 2:10 am

  This truck is an excellent vehicle. I enjoy it more every day I drive it. It is like no other truck as far as versitility goes. And it is as comfortable, and smooth as any truck can get. It rides like a car--very smooth. I have used it for numerous things- mostly comfortable trips back and forth to work, but also have picked up plenty of supplies, and it is soo easy to change from suv to p/up truck. The top panels come off, and go back on so easy it is great. anyone interested in this vehicle, do not pass it up it is an excellent vehicle. buy it and enjoy it, as much as i do.

  Awesome truck - 2005 Chevrolet Avalanche
  By Bobbi - February 3 - 1:03 am

  Ive had it a year and it is a joy to drive. I highly recommend it to anyone wanting more versatility than an ordinary truck would offer. Very comfortable ride on long trips and a joy to drive to work daily. Good power and fun to look at and own.

  Avalanche Rules - 2005 Chevrolet Avalanche
  By Scott Foster - February 2 - 9:39 pm

  I drove every truck before I bought my Avalanche ... I havent had such a solid sweet ride since I had my 1998 Suburban ... since then, I have had two Tahoes ... but the Avalanche is the best!

  I love this truck.. - 2005 Chevrolet Avalanche
  By Xplorer021 - January 29 - 3:50 pm

  This truck is awesome. You get so much versatility with it. I bought the tent to go caming in and it works great. On long road trips with friends the waterproof bed is more than enough to keep everyones luggage dry and there is more than enough room for all of the luggage. I can load it up with a trailer of 3 ATVs and have six people ride comfortably and still have room for 3 dogs in the back with 2 large coolers. The dogs love it. They ride great under the covers sleeping most of the time and you dont have to worry about them jumping out. We take the one closest to the back window off to give them plenty of air. There is plenty of leg room for everyone and cupholders. Great overall buy.

  My 2nd Avalanche - 2005 Chevrolet Avalanche
  By Greg Pacienza - January 27 - 4:32 pm

  Great truck.Easy to drive and great on week-end trips. Bad gas mileage, but everything else makes up for that. On- star is new and a great value too.
