2008 Chevrolet Avalanche Reviews, Pricing & Specs

I swing a hammer for a living and between the heavy-duty locking bed cover, the two locking cargo bins, the extended bed when you take the glass out and drop the rear seat, it was the IDEAL truck for me. It was comfortable for family, could pull a loaded trailer, and looked GOOD on date night!

As long as the body stays together these Avalanches can rack up a lot of miles.

These trucks have great motors and ride really nicely. As long as the body lasts youll own one of the most reliable used trucks you can buy.

2nd Avalanche we have owned. We liked our 2003 so much that we had to get another. We upgraded to one with most of the toys. The active fuel management system isn't all it's cracked up to be. The 20" wheel option really let's it handle the road a lot better than a normal 4X4. The covered cargo area is also nice when the using it to haul items in foul weather.

We bought the LTZ 4X4 with the help of GM incentives. Outstanding truck that rides silky smooth and aims to make long road trips a joy. It's sure footed on and off road, enough power to show off or keep in control, smooth shifting, solid brakes. Hauls and tows stuff while passengers ride in luxury up front. Takes flexfuel as well as regular gas. A truck for all seasons. We love our Avalanche.

Very reliable vehicle if you keep up with the maintenance

The features are a mixed bag. Most of the trim is intact. The windows and sunroof work correctly. The bad is the rear seatbelt buckle is missing., There are dents all along the body of vehicle and a couple of the trays will not close fully. overall a decent buy for the price.

I like the fact that I had an suv and pick up truck all in one. I'm from the south and everyone in the south needs a truck. With the Avalanche you have that and more. You can't go wrong

Navigation is outdated. Some features like park assist do not work. Overall the truck is great

Alright so this is one of the biggest things I really want... but it'll never happen. Power, looks, handling, seating, and cargo are the best perks for this truck to have. I think the style is very different compared to the older Avalanche''s but overall its got that modern touch to it instead of the cubed look to it. Fuel is and will be your worse enemy, it'll cost you an easy $75 just to fill it up and mileage isn't that grand. Cargo, actually has alot of space for such a large SUV but considering the seats are able to fold, it actually gives you an extra 3 to 5 feet of room. Price is harsh... and I mean harsh.. a new one will run you an upwards 50 grand, depending on options.. the one I drove was $56,990 (with all options)
