2008 Chevrolet Avalanche

2008 Chevrolet Avalanche Model Overview

Vehicle Summary: 2008 Chevrolet Avalanche

The Chevrolet Avalanche is a cross between a full-size SUV and a full-size pickup truck, with a roomy five-passenger cabin and a short cargo bed. It also has a unique "midgate" at the rear of the passenger compartment that can be folded down, extending the length of the bed and letting owners carry items up to eight feet long. The most recent redesign gives the Avalanche added power and more standard features, though its exterior styling is only a slight evolution from the previous generation.
