Loved the very informative video about what I also believe to be the coolest 1/2 ton truck ever sold.
I recently purchased a clean Texas 2005 Avalanche with 150k miles. I’m preparing to overhaul the front (2 wheel.), tune up to the 5.3, updates to the sound system and probably put on some new duck heads and bring the front end up a little.
I’m going to be looking forward to your series on the minor restoration to your Avalanche.
Thanks for the great content and looking forward to more!
I'm glad you liked the video and congratulations on the new purchase! And yes, there will be a LOT of projects for my avalanche in the months to come. Stay tuned! 😀
Still RockN my 2004 Avalanche with 196,000 miles
These trucks are like Timex,😀 They take a lickin and just keep tickin. Thanks for watching! 😀
I have a 2003 Z66 Avalanche LM7 5.3 V8. One of the the things I like about mine is it does not have that plastic on the bottom of the door or on the back of the bed, white very sexy. Pristine condition, 160.000 miles rides and drives perfectly. I can get 140 miles to a quarter tank if driven easy even though at this moment it runs a little rich. I love my truck wouldn't trade it for nothing new!! I love that hood on that black Avalanche.
A lot of people liked the slick side versions as well as the cladded ones. It's really a matter of personal taste. 160,000 miles, is a great start for that truck. Keep it up! They are great vehicles, even after all this time. Thanks for watching!
Yessss! yesterday I got my 2011 avy ltz all black. It had 120,000 miles on it. I drove it home from the lot yesterday and it drives like a freaking couch! It’s so comfortable and roomy and drives soooo smooth! My family loves it.
Congratulations! You are gonna love that truck!
Excellent job, Bro
Thanks a lot for waching!
I love your Darth Vader scene, I am a Star Wars fan...
Yeah, as soon as I saw him say that on his video I had to poke the bear a bit. lol
I would get a classic Avalanche anytime and have Big Mike take care of business..
LOL
What most people don't know is these things don't ride like the pick up truck. They are suburbans with a bed. Because of this ride like a town car.
That is so true. I was always impressed with the ride, loaded or unloaded. It never felt 'truck-ish.
Thanks for watching!
Heck yeah, I'll take some more avalanche content any day. Very versatile vehicle with excellent aftermarket support.
And what's really amazing is the support is still there after 20 years. Thanks for watching!
I didn’t realize this truck had so many cool features. Great video!
Thanks for watching!
Hi,I'm about to take a look at a 2005 Avalanche here in Italy, 200000km,it looks good. My first choice was a same era Tahoe but the Avalanche is growing on me..only problem it is too long for European roads,cities and parking..but I'll manage
I would image the issue would be the same with the Tahoe as well. The Tahoe, Suburban, Silverado, and Avalanche were all variants of the GMT800 platform and similar in size. 200000 km (124000 miles) Is nothing for that truck. If it's clean and the frame is in good condition, you may want to grab it. Not only will it be a reliable vehicle for many years, you'll be getting a collector vehicle, especially in Europe. Thanks for watching!
8.1l 2500 please
Yep, they are an absolute beast when it came to towing/hauling.
Thanks for watching!
