If you regularly pull a boat or trailer and also need the cargo capabilities of a pickup truck, along with abundant passenger space and comfort, remember that a properly-equipped Avalanche can tow up to 8,000 pounds. With its versatile Midgate configuration, the Avalanche can be set up to carry long loads (including four-by-eight-foot plywood sheets) or, with rear seatbacks raised, to hold a full complement of passengers.
If gas mileage is a major concern, you might be better off with a different sort of vehicle, because the Avalanche is not frugal, even with the new Active Fuel Management System. Piloting an Avalanche through crowded urban streets is no picnic because of the vehicle’s bulk, though maneuverability is better than some might expect.
