Just got a 2002 Chevy Avalanche with Z66 Package, Onyx Black w/ Tan interior. Just base + Z66, nothing else.   Paid $22600 out the door, see "what you paid" forum for details   If you are in Austin, TX, I can refer you to the salesman who got me the deal.
#30 of 86 Back in BLACK! by skidmarks Nov 22, 2001 (4:39 pm)
Had my AV 2 wks now. I really like it. Previously had a 99 SLT Sierra which I liked alot as well. I located mine on BuyPower. Black Z77 with graphite interior ,Convenience package,4:10 gears.I got a great deal.I think there is a glut of these now. It runs good,but not as good as my GMC I traded in.It's the extra wt. that's a killer.I also noticed the tow/haul mode doesn't give the hard shifts like my old GMC, just seems to raise the rpm shift points. This thing really needs the 345hp 6litre motor in it,although the mpg would suffer The OnStar is cool,but the subscription is a little over priced. So far I have logged a 1000 miles,the computer went goofy once and wouldn't let it idle,but corrected itself. I recommend the Manic stainless steel step boards. They look as good as the GM ones and are a couple of hundred less. This thing is so smooth that I can forgive its shortcomings.
#31 of 86 fastz28 was that at Champion? by txyank1 Nov 22, 2001 (4:41 pm)
#32 of 86 Not Champion by fastz28 Nov 23, 2001 (8:32 am)
Capitol. I went to Champion first, but couldn't strike a deal there. So I went to Capitol. Easiest deal ever, told them what *I* want to pay, they either take it or I'm going somewhere else.
#33 of 86 Fuel tank cap. by subdoc4 Dec 01, 2001 (4:17 pm)
I purchased a 3/4 ton. The ad says a 37 gal fuel tank. The owners manual state 31 gal. Anyone know who's right?
#34 of 86 Fuel tank cap. by gandolphxx Dec 01, 2001 (8:14 pm)
I have the 2500 - 37 gal - watch out the "get gas" light goes on 4 gals - best start looking for a station quick.
#35 of 86 Fuel Tank by ygmn Dec 03, 2001 (7:27 am)
1500 has 31 gallons and I have never seen it as more or less.   Now the 2500 may have more but do not know.

#37 of 86 Tonneau cover? by loyalfan1 Jan 09, 2002 (5:20 am)
The Av I want to buy has the soft tonneau cover which replaces the 3 piece rigid cover. I was wondering if there are any advantages / disadvantages to the soft cover other than the fact that you can't stow anything on top of it. And does anyone know which came first?
#38 of 86 Tonneau cover? by naylor99 Jan 09, 2002 (7:02 am)
All other things being equal, the rigid panels increase the price by $600. To me, the panels are what makes the Avalanche so practical. You can lock the whole shebang, for one thing. Another nicety of the design is that you can remove just one or two of the panels as needed --the others are independently clamped into place. Also, there may be times when it is nice to have a place to sit above the crowd... I would also expect that the panels will age more gracefully than a soft cover. Just my 2 cents.
