Why buy new when you can restore?

I've never been a fan of the plastic cladding. Nor of how small the bed is of the Avalanche; even more useless than a crew cab bed because of all the extra plastic stuff.

I really want your rims!!! I've seen one truck in person with them and found two or three online. Too bad your C1500 isn't a K1500!

So how many miles have you put on it and what's your current MPG vs the C1500?

Gonna do some 20s?
28s, yo. :D2

Nice lookin ride. Gonna do a set of rims and tires on it?
Definitely going to get some more aggressive tires after this set wears out.

Not really sure about wheels though. I kinda like these factory wheels.

In my case, the Avalanche's bed is more practical because I can keep all of my tools out of the cab. The bedside pockets are also great to have.

Only put about 300 miles on it so far. It gets about 16mpg whereas my old GMT400 got around 14mpg.

Nice Kyle.

One thing, why did GM have to mess up the tailgate like that with the big ass Chevrolet? :dunno:

I wish they hadn't done that, none the less I like that truck. You picked the best color out there too :D

Now you need to throw some 30s under it and some rubber bands for tires :jester:
