  Very good ride quality when compared to pickups - especially over rough surfaces. Hydroboost brakes big improvement over 03. I use this truck as a daily commuter and as a recreational vehicle for hunting, camping, etc... Interior refinement is required - maybe the next generation will put it on par. Overall, the most versatile SUV/pickup on the market.

  The avalanche has plenty of power and handles very well for a large vehicle. The only problems so far was a knocking sound that was later diagnosed as a loose cross member. The vehicle has been a real pleasure to own so far.

  2004 Avalanche Z71 - 2005 Chevrolet Avalanche

  The Z71 Avalance is an "I cant believe its a truck truck". Ive been on black diamond off road trails testing the 4WD and power, this thing is a goat. Ive been on long freeway runs, it rides easily as smooth as the best domestic car. Ive taken it hunting, and to important business meetings. It is comfortable in both roles. Now if we could do something about the gas mileage...
