Is it a four-door pickup truck, or is it a sport utility vehicle that happens to have an open cargo bed? The Avalanche is both. Chevrolet calls it the ultimate utility vehicle. This one comes equipped with Chevys Autotrac four-wheel drive, and it holds a 295-horsepower, 5.3-liter V-8 engine that generates 330 pounds-feet of torque. The four-speed-automatic transmission has a tow-haul mode. Autotrac four-wheel drive automatically distributes power among the four wheels to maintain traction. The Avalanche is unabashedly truck-like and rides a lot more smoothly than you might expect. The firm suspension absorbs a fair amount of disturbance and eases rough spots. Steering and braking feel unusually light. The Avalanche is easy to maneuver in the city and feels solid and in control on the highway. The 4x4 option confirms that you can take it most anywhere. Based on Chevrolets Silverado full-size pickup truck and Suburban SUV, the Avalanche has four full-size doors. The Avalanche is quiet and roomy inside, and the seats are comfortable and have great thigh support. Its very versatile for hauling the family, or hauling sheets of drywall - the folding rear seat to increase the bed size is awesome! Print this page and call us Now...
