Excellent and comfortable truck.

This truck is perfect for the outdoor activist who brings the family. Plenty of room for passengers and gear, it will go almost anywhere with great style and comfort.

Love my 13 avalanche

I’ve traded my 02 Tahoe for this 13 Avalanche LTZ 4X4 Blank Diamond Edition Love how this rides down the road. Air ride suspension is awesome

Nice reliable comfortable truck.

This was the last year they made the Avalanche and if they still made them I would have bought another new one. I owned three Avalanches and they were my favorite vehicles to date.

My favorite ever!

Has a 2003 Avalanche years ago and missed it. Will always be my favorite and the 2013 didn’t disappoint. Happy to own one from the last year they were made.

Paint problems

I bought my 2013 Black diamond New! Have had paint peeling problems on the roof and rust through on rear dogleg between rear door and wheel wells. Thankfully GM has A 6 year or 100.000 mile rust through guarantee. Now getting GM to replace rear panel on left side! Has Escalade 3rd brake light that cost $500.00 replaced twice in the last three years because of moisture. Now slowly loosing led lights and GM won't replace.

Love the avalanche

I owned a 2004 Avalanche and was really hoping GM would offer a 2018 model. When that didnt hapoen, I searched extensively for a clean, low mileage 2013- the last production year. SCORE! Very happy. The mid gate and side bed tool boxes give me everything I need in a truck while the interior gives me the comfort and style of a full size car. Ive never met an Avalanche owner that didnt love them. I would buy a new one without hesitation.

Loved the truck till the paint started peeling

Loved the vehicle don't like the company that make it. After buying over 70 chevy 1corvette 1GTO they don't want to fix a paint problem they have with their trucks

The swiss army knife of trucks!!!

Had this truck for over 5 years and 80k miles! IT was far and away the best truck I have ever owned!!! I have owned Fords, Chevy Silverados, GMC trucks and one other avalanche. The truck was amazing and very sharp looking in pearl white.
