Chevrolet avalanche is it the vehicle for you.
My vehicle is the great offering vehicle. It also provides enough room for my family comfortably while we are on vacation or traveling abroad. It is a great vehicle that has great gas mileage and also has a great look. The only thing that I do not like about it is the price of new tires.

My car is like a best friend.
My car is like my best friend. I feel comfortable every time I am driving because it really doing so smooth. The physical look and mechanical engine is superb and if I will buy another car again for my partner I rather buy the same as what I have now. It will bring you to the place safe. And the inside interior is very nice.

Negative Owner Reviews

It's had a long run, but it's at the end of it's road compared to newer models.
It's becoming older so its performance is nowhere the same. It's barely reliable and is a gas guzzler. I don't like the fact that the car is older it's not comfortable brake tube seats are worn out. If I could afford a new car I would. It's been in a family a long time and I like Chevrolet as a brand, I just need a newer model.

Beautiful 2010 Chevy avalanche LTZ in excellent condition
I don't have a lot of problems with my vehicle. I have taken very good care of it from the day I bought it. I have some minor issues but that's it. I do have to replace one of the airbags but I'm waiting for the recall so I can get for free. I love my truck it is beautiful

Pros from Owners

likeFilled Tracie B.

The avalanche has a classic look. The ride is very smooth on long distance trips. Low maintenance if oil change per protocol. The vehicle has ample leg space in the back seat. Has a powerful sound system.

Cons from Owners

dislikeFilled Tracie B.

If a major system breaks down such as the camshaft, it can be expensive to repair without an extended warranty. The tires for the vehicle is also expensive. The back of the truck does not have the same amount of space for loading cargo as a normal truck.
