I emailed GM about their High Desert option for the halfton, and asked why they wouldn't just bring the Avalanche back if they are already offering something like this for a truck. The response I got was;
'Hi, Brad ? Thank you for reaching out! We are unable to comment on whether or not the Avalanche will be brought back. I will note that the High Desert is not a concept. It is a special edition Silverado that will be brought into production.
Best,
Kyle"
Maybe they are using the High Desert option as testing to see if they should bring the Avalanche back with their new 2018 platform? I know this is a typical mgmt response to my question, but I honestly was expecting a "...nothing planned for the future..." or a "....blah blah....we are focusing our efforts elsewhere...blah" type of response.
But who knows, take from it what you may. I replied to his email saying I would keep driving my 07 instead of the High Desert package, in hopes it may get back to GM making them realize that only a mid-gate vehicle will do! Everyone here should follow suit and it may cause change in GM?
Anyway, enjoy the weekend everyone!
