Nothing wrong with your Avalanche,I’ve got two. Your 2500 is a badass ride.

I'm not sure what the hell is going on here, lol.


But a 2500 Avalanche came standard with an 8.1 through the '06 model year. They are good trucks and I'd like to have one, but they are a bit ugly. They look much better without the cladding, but that was only available on the 1500 model.

I wanted to buy one a few years ago,the thing was around nine or ten years old and at the dealer they wanted a fortune for it.I passed.Everyone I found was overpriced imo.

I agree with bucket. Good truck just not very appealing to look at

I looked at buying a new one back in '05 or '06. I decided against it because I couldn't get exactly what I wanted. I wanted no cladding on a 2500 which wasn't possible and I was willing to let that slide and get an ugly 2500, lol. But I couldn't get some options without getting other options that I didn't care about. For instance, I couldn't get a 4:10 rear without getting adjustable pedals. That's what really frustrated me and I just kept driving my old stuff.

The avalanches havent held up well around these parts.gmt 800 are driven by self inflated guys who think they know what they are doing, but end up spraying bedliner on their rusty frames and eating them out quicker kinda thing.

And they think the trucks are worth 5k fair condition easy.

The avalanches are driven by their wives' boyfriends mom.

Yeah

I've got a gmt800 2500 Burb, it's been awesome. Bought it with 87k on it, now it's around 215k. Brakes, PS pump, battery, tires, one tie rod and a fuel pump. Pretty good for a 20 year old truck. Yeah it's rusty now, but it's no worse than any other 20 year old truck in Ohio.
