2002 AVALANCHE - 2002 Chevrolet Avalanche
By JOHNRONN - November 9 - 12:00 amWe switched from toyota 4-runners and bought an Avalanche as opposed to a toyota sequoia. We have had the vehicle for 6 months and it has been flawless so far. My only complaints about the design are that the storage compartments in the fenders are not dustproof and the space over the wheel wells on the fenders are not protected from other people opening the car doors and smashing them into the side of the Avalanches fender.

What a change! - 2002 Chevrolet Avalanche
By Kr00g - October 16 - 10:00 amI researched this vehicle for over a month and decided it would fit the bill for what I wanted. It replaces my 93 SSEi and the last truck I had owned was a 85 Blazer. I needed a truck, a car my elderly folks could ride in (and get in and out of), and something reliable to get me to work in Iowa. This truck meets all those requirements and then some.

LET THE GOOD TIMES ROLL!!!! - 2002 Chevrolet Avalanche
By DANG-I-LOVE-MY-TRUCK - August 28 - 10:00 amI bought the first z71 I could find in Nashville. I have loved this thing ever since I saw it in motortrend a couple years ago. Ive got 35000 miles on my truck and have had a couple of rattles in the suspension that had to be fixed, but this truck is the greatest thing on 4 wheels. An engineering masterpiece!! A+++++++++

Love the Avalanche - 2002 Chevrolet Avalanche
By Shellzz - July 22 - 2:00 amI love my new Avalanche. It serves several special purposes for me personally. First, I wanted an SUV type of vehicle, with 4 doors, that would comfortably tranport passengers. But I have a farm, dogs, horses, etc., and needed a truck that could have bed to haul things in, like hay and feed. We also camp, and wanted a comfortable vehicle to travel the highways and mountain roads, but be able to throw camp fire smelly tents and clothes and muddy items in the back. We found the perfect vehicle! The combination of SUV and Pickup is great.

Love my Avalanche - 2002 Chevrolet Avalanche
By Dustin Lewis - July 22 - 2:00 amWasnt too sold on the look at first; however, this vehicle has proven to be the most practical vehicle I have ever owned. My kids love it when we store the back window, open the sunroof and roll the windows down. Ive used the midgate once and it is wonderful to carry that extra load.

3 Engines and stiil rolling - 2002 Chevrolet Avalanche
By Pat Jenkins - July 16 - 10:00 amVehicles first engine began to smoke heavily during start up the first week we owned it. GM said it was defective PCV. After that didnt fix it, they finally replaced the motor. The dealers quality on this engine swap was terrible. My test drive off the dealer repai lot revealed a heavy knocking sound from the passenger side of new engine. GM had to replace engine again and have aera rep supervise the installation. I doubt that Toyota or Honda would have had to replace the motor twice!

dog cab - 2002 Chevrolet Avalanche
By elmo daddy - July 4 - 2:00 amI love this truck. I really enjoy its versatility and its comfort. It is perfect for hauling my 2 dogs (both over 100lbs). We open up the back end and fold the seats down and away we go. It is also perfect for hauling friends around for a night on the town.

I am sold - 2002 Chevrolet Avalanche
By JimboH55 - April 22 - 10:00 amI have been a suburban buyer for years. I went to the dealership that I always deal with. Drove the new suburban and was ready to purchase. For the heck of it my bud who I deal with all the time ask me to test drive the Avalanche. I was sold once I got into it. Had all the comfort, power, and drove better than the burb. The next day I returned to purchased the Avalanche after driving them both again. Trust me the looks will grow on you.We have had some very strong storms this spring in MO no leaks. If your a burb user like I was. You use the back half more to haul cargo than passengers. Need to look at the Avalanche.
