2005 Chevrolet Avalanche LT review from North America
"The truck is great, but drinks a lot of gas"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Plastic cover and panels on the rear of truck were faded, but dealership applied some type of dressing that seems to have started to wear off after a three month of being applicated. Chevrolet should be ashamed to sell vehicles of this type (including the newer ones) with a price that high and not have these plastic parts painted to match like on the Escalade trucks. Averaage cost on painting the rear cover panel that fade range from $500-$700.
General comments?
The truck has a very soothing ride.
Although the truck does like gas its comfort and looks kinda help.
Wish GM would compensate to get the rear plastic cover parts painted to avoid the fading.
