Not every Av owner is driving one of the exclusive Avs. I don't know the percentage but I'd like to find out...

So, are you one of the exclusive Av owners? If you're not driving a 2500 then you're not one of the few, the proud and the fortunate. ;D

If you are a 2500 owner please post here. Let's get an idea of who and how many of us there are. Besides we've got some things we can talk about without all the others listening in >:D
 
There is a poll in theis section about who owns what/./....search for it...

Could you maybe change the title to this thread so that it is more accurate and informative as to content. Would save a lot of people time reading.
 
I do like your way of thinking.
Many are called. Few are chosen >:D
The best part is having Subaru people ask what size engine is in my Av and seeing the look on their faces when I say, "It's a 496" >:D >:D

I have one the earliest 2500's and I can tell you they hand built that monster at the factory - we are indeed, the few, the proud, the owners of the biggest gasoline engine truck in North America (y) (y) (y) and I have the platinum cas card from Chevron to prove it ;D

Av 2500.. Is that the Av that takes $2500 per month in gasoline?

Just kidding Dan.

You're dead right about that Jack... as a 2500 owner and fan, it's costing me about $1,000.00 per month to keep the fuel up to this baby! :eek:

Wow, Skidd, that has got me beat :eek:

What is petrol runnig down under ???

By the sound of a few of the replies in this thread seems
a few more wished the had got a 2500.

I'm very happy with mine ;D
 
Well, looks like there's two kinds of people who post on this thread:

1. 2500 owners
2. 1500 owners >:D

We paid more to have the big block and we pay more every time we fill up. But it's worth it (POWER) and we don't envy any other engine (well, 'cept Jack's whipped and intercooled 8.1L).

And for those of you who think this thread is snobbish, think about this, 2500 owners don't even consider a WBH to be an Avalanche - after all, the big block ain't put into a WBH (not yet anyway). ;)

Skidd are you talking $1000 in U.S. Dollars?

Wow, you won't be able to afford mustache wax! (I saw your picture).
 
Yet another one. Third car in the family so it only has around 11,000 miles on it. Looks like I made a good decision keeping the 86 Honda crx si (35 - 40 miles per gallon).

I was wondering when they release the sales totals on Avalanches what percentage are 2500s?

OK, I get stuck doing these sometimes...

No I'm not talking about $1,000.00 USD per month, I talking about local currency.

The average price for premium unleaded I've paid sice owning the av is $0.96 per litre which comes out to $3.63 Aussie per US Gallon (if that summary even makes sense).

 
Big Engine... Big Power... Big Gas Tank... Big Gas Bill...

what more do you need to say?

Are we exclusive? How many of us were dumb/smart enough to buy one of these monsters? My guess is less than 10% of total AV sales, maybe even 5%

 
For a minute I thought I got zoomed off to a porno site with that Gene Simmons tongue looking at me! :p

I believe I still have the only 2500 in Scotland, probably in UK. With gas running at about $5 per gallon, I just gotta be mad.

Anyway, If you are going to own a vehicle which is far too big and far too thirsty for Uk roads, I figured I might as well go completely overboard.

God knows what the gas mileage will be when I install the 150hp NX kit!
 
I guess I will be joining this "exclusive" group tomorrow. After lurking on this site for a couple of months and gathering all sorts of valuable info, I have made my purchase. Tomorrow morning I will be flying to Las Vegas and picking up my new black '03 2500 4x4. By the time I get back home it should be just about through it's break-in period and the mods will begin. (Actually, I was considering a stop at the local parts store to pick up the amber DRL lamps before I even leave.)

This is my first post, but I think that I'll have a lot more to say (ask) beginning this Sunday when I return home with my new AV. ;D ;D
 
Dan: I can't wait til your cute penguin avatar makes it's return.
