Chevrolet Avalanche
Half SUV, half pickup truck, the Chevrolet Avalanche combines the best of both worlds. This winning combination has served GM well for several years already. For 2011, the Avalanche comes in with just one drivetrain, a 310-hp V8 with efficient all-wheel drive. This versatile vehicle can be used as an SUV, truck or both, thanks to the Midgate feature. This allows the transport of longer objects. This a smart utilitarian.
