After much deliberation of having a new car payment, we went and traded in our nasty Nissan XTerra for this awesome 2003 Chevy Avalanche. I'm very pleased with this, other than how much gas it takes, it's a great vehicle! It has plenty of room inside, a massive V-8, smooth ride,every other little feature you can think of and the back bed area is bigger than it looks. This will will be much easier for us during hurricane evac as well.
