Best Pick up Truck

Strong pick up truck, ellegancy, very sharp, reliable, which they would be a 2022/23 version, I would definitely be in line to get updated version. Just hope if like or better than the 2008 LTZ version I have and still love. Great vehicle.

When it’s running it’s just like any other truck over to era. I bought it used to but extremely well-maintained from a gentleman driver but that couldn’t stop the massive design flaw instead of cost me way more. I would’ve been far better off buying a Ford F150 new

I purchased this car from my brother who maintained it diligently, and yet between 110 and 150,000 miles I’ve had to replace door handles engine parts the entire front end two transmissions and a rear end. This truck is a money pit

Great job as always..

I have had oil pressure problems, Now after new lifter, and oil pump it seams to be ok! But overall the truck performance very well. But I do recommend a larger Engine for more power. The 5.3 does not have enough towing power.

Best vehicle I have ever owned

Love it, I have put oner 150,000 miles and with the exception of maybe 1000 mile they are all be me. Has never left me.stranded and love the fact that the design doesn't allow for a cap to be put on. And the paint color (orange) and the paint job, after 13 years looks like it just came off the showroom showroom floor. Wish they still made them.

my baby

I bought an 2008 Avalanche ltz about four years ago and i love it. I was always very skeptical about these trucks when they first appeared on the scene they had lots of plastic people just thought they were weird just like people took a while to like El Caminos.Over the years as i saw more on the road i started to like them more. I have had four other trucks over the years and they were ok at the time but my Avalanche is the best she rides like a cadillac and she looks sweet. It has 124000 miles now and i hope she rides another 124000 miles and as for all the plastic sails i found a great product to make them look brand new again.

Great truck

This is a great truck. It is vesitileand and strong. The only issue with it is the traction control system. It will turn of and on at will and no one seems to know what the cause is. It have heard several causes from spark plugs being bad, a switch near the break, even the fuel pump.

What a Great Vehicle!!!

GM produced such a great SUV when they conceived of this Suburban/Truck hybrid. I travel often and also haul boats and do handyman type projects. It is a perfect vehicle for my needs. It is very solid and comfortable and feels very stable and safe. GM really needs to start producing this vehicle again.

I don't know it.

I love my truck. It is very reliable. I have had very little issues with the operation of the truck. I would surely recommend this vehicle to a friend. The only issues is the indicator lights are faulty but it doesn't effect the running of the vehicle.

Great Universal Vehicle

It does it all!!! I could not be happier than I am with this vehicle. It is safe, comfortable, reliable, competent to do whatever I need done, and it looks good too! My vehicle has well over 100,000 miles but still starts and runs like it did when it was new. With proper maintenance, I expect this vehicle to still be roadworthy at 250,000 miles.

Perfect SUV for my needs.

I wish Chevy would start making this model again! It is comfortable, safe, and strong! I can load it up and haul my boat anywhere. It handles well and is attractive. I would buy another one in a second.

Great Multipurpose Vehicle!!!

I wish GM still made this model. The room, comfort and safety of a Suburban with the advantage provided by a pickup truck. It is built on a durable frame and has proven itself to be very reliable. I
