A Car Place (2004)
The bed itself is covered with a removable plastic mat that protects against damage while holding things in place - a better (and quieter) solution than hard plastic bed mats.

Car Buying Strategies (2003)
The 2003 Avalanche is offered in a standard 1500 series, a special North Face Edition for outdoor enthusiasts, and a bulked-up 2500 version for those who require even more power than the 1500 provides.

Epinions (2003)
See what fellow owners of the 2003 Chevy Avalanche think of their vehicles -- the good and the bad.

Pickup Truck (2003)
Chevrolet Motor Division introduces an Avalanche for the first time in 2003 without body hardware, and has significantly improved all Avalanche models for the new model year.

4x4 Review (2002)
Spontaneous adaptability turns Avalanche from SUV to pickup.

Allpar (2002)
The Avalanche takes something old, namely fold-down rear seats, something new, namely removable rear window glass, and puts them into an unusual place - a truck.

American Woman Road and Travel (2002)
The secret to Avalanche’s adaptability lies in the four-foot section at mid-ship, between the two rear passenger doors. It is here that the cargo/passenger mix can be renegotiated at a moment’s notice.

Auto Revista (2002)
It is truly a unique vehicle -- with the benefits of both a pickup and a sport utility vehicle -- thanks to a unique combination of capability and spontaneous adaptability.

Canadian Driver (2002)
Bold styling notwithstanding, the real benefit of the new Avalanche pickup is its folding midgate - an idea whose time has come.

Canadian Driver (2002)
The Avalanche 2500 Series will likely be purchased by people with heavy-duty towing needs, such as those who tow boats and recreational trailers.

Car Buying Strategies (2002)
The Chevrolet Avalanche Extended Cab is loaded with luxuries.

Car Trackers (2002)
Chevrolet takes the best features of a minivan, a pickup, a sport ute and invents a few more. Add to that a ¾ ton heavy hauler and a North Face relationship, and most needs are addressed.

Car Trackers (2002)
Chevrolet Avalanche sport-utility truck brings a modular cab.

Cars.com (2002)
Is it a four-door pickup truck? Or is it a sport utility vehicle that happens to have an open cargo bed? The Avalanche is both and more.

Detroit News (2002)
Nifty midgate gives new Chevy added versatility.

Edmunds (2002)
Based on the same chassis as the full-size Suburban, the Avalanche wears a new front fascia that integrates styled headlights and exaggerated wheel arches for a substantially more aggressive look than your average Suburban or Tahoe. Video highlights here too.

Epinions (2002)
See what fellow owners of the 2002 Chevy Avalanche think of their vehicles -- the good and the bad.

Milwaukee Journal Sentinel (2002)
There is a little more roll on major bumps, but the truck feels solid and smooth on our area's crumbling roadways. Where you notice the roll most is on driveway or parking lot entrances where there is a steep incline.

Motor Trend (2002)
At the heart of Avalanche innovation is what General Motors calls the Convert-a-Cab system. Think of it as the pickup equivalent of a car's trunk pass-through.

Motor Trend (2002)
A pickup that thinks it's an SUV.

New Car Test Drive (2002)
Avalanche begins with the same basic chassis as the Chevy Silverado, a solid and rugged pickup that also serves as base for the redesigned Chevy Tahoe sport-utility.
