  Great Solid Vehicle - 2005 Chevrolet Avalanche
  By Bob Viola - March 5 - 3:54 pm

  Great ride, easy to drive. Lots of room and can handle a payload. Hauled 2 900lbs. Bags of bulk sand and it still drove like a champ.

  Very Nice - 2005 Chevrolet Avalanche
  By Mike - February 20 - 11:14 am

  I went from a Mustange GT to my Avalanche LT and all I can say is I love it! I got the maxed out truck (even the upgraded paint) minus the luggage rack and have experinced nothing but perfection. This is my first truck and dont see how I ever managed without it. The new 07s have hit the mark with the tailgate, rims, and upgraded interrior. Very nice Chevy, very nice!

  I Love My Truck! - 2005 Chevrolet Avalanche
  By Jennie - December 27 - 7:31 pm

  I love my truck. I often sleep in it when Im in between jobs. Its the only truck I ever considered buying. I waited 3 years to buy and it was well worth the wait. Although, it has a rattle in the engine compartment. But I still love my truck. Ive heard others traded theirs in or got rid of it because of the noise. I love my truck and Im keeping it for life. I may get a sports car (of course a Chevy) in the future and Im still keeping my truck.

  Fun to Drive @ 20.1 MPG - 2005 Chevrolet Avalanche
  By David R - June 20 - 8:37 pm

  Owned a Ford F-150 for 10 years, still have it, still use it, still a great truck. I’ve owned the 05 Avalanche LT for one year now. I bought the truck because I liked the style and every Avalanche owner I spoke to was passionate about how much fun it was to drive. This vehicle is easy to handle with great control, power, and smooth ride. Every truck owners dream, including great gas mileage city 19 hwy 24, I average 20.1mpg. Best investment I’ve made in a long time. Now all I need is to find an E85 fuel station.

  Functional and Fun - 2005 Chevrolet Avalanche
  By cory zimmerman - May 18 - 4:00 pm

  This is a great vehicle. It has numerous features that turn out to be very useful, such as side compartment that also serve as ice coolers. The fact that the bed drains is nice during the winter. Interior is extremely roomy (Im 62")and comfortable.

  Im lovin it and thats not a McDonalds - 2005 Chevrolet Avalanche
  By Mark - February 6 - 10:12 pm

  Well my eperience with trucks are are not old enough but I love this vehicle,spent little extra on interior and eterior equipment but dont regret single buck. Finally I have car I can go easy fishing or hunting without any doubts like "Am I gonna get there without ripping all my brake hoses and wires under the car?".This time I would say GO FOR IT! and still when I get back give a little bubble bath put a nice suit on and take my wife to dinner in nice restaurant. This car has its class, runs great. Handling is good very responsive to driver no matter who that is. Lots of power and still looks great on the road. Have proof, everyones turning heads towards me.

  Awesome truck - 2005 Chevrolet Avalanche
  By RAy - January 24 - 11:42 am

  I have owned 17 vehicles, most of them trucks, and this is by far the best. The ride is excellent and it handles like a dream. It is a very quiet ride and has a lot of power. Huals a ton of pellets with no problem and back is very easy to convert. I would recommend to anyone.

  Road Warrior Perfection - 2005 Chevrolet Avalanche
  By Gandelot - November 26 - 9:16 pm

  I drive for a living, and after owning 3 vehicles in 2 years...Ive finally found the perfect vehicle for spending up to 8 hours a day/four days a week in. Comfort is incredible-Handling is great-Power is spelled C-H-E-V-Y.

  Style and comfort - 2005 Chevrolet Avalanche
  By Kingpole - November 10 - 2:51 am

  I was more than happy to be able to upgrade my Chevy vehicle from a Tracker (2WD convertible) which was fun to drive-like a golf cart, to the Avalanche. WOW! I have had it for 3 months now and enjoy every second driving it. Power, style, and smooth ride. I should mention that the stock stereo/CD system works just fine. I have Bose in the house and thought Id be spoiled and would need the Bose quality in the truck-NAH. It rocks just fine.
