They just had a car show on the early Show. I turned it on just in time to see a Avalanche. They had the hard covers off and the midgate folded down. They guy showing it showed the side storage compartments and then he put up the midgate and rear seats. Harry Smith and the girls were ooohhhh and ahhhhh, they seemed to love it! My eyes wern't working that well but I think it was a Sunset Orange Z71, anyone else see it?
 
Butch - thanks for the heads up - I am home sick today and have the Early Show on - we are on a time lag from IN, so I will have to watch for this.

BTW - where is Emporia? I grew up in Huntington near Fort Wayne
 
Emporia is a little crossroads town just south of Anderson. It is at the intersection of State Roads 36 & 109. We have a grain elevator and a gas station ?:-[ I have a friend from Huntington and have been up there many times!
 
My Sis still lives in Huntington and has a Blue 02 Z71 - she has an id on the site (cruck) but she is rarely on.

Glad to meet you Butch
 
Same here, if you ever go back home give me a shout and we will get together for some AV talk!
 
The Show was just on here in CO - I loved the opening shot of the AV going over rocks with the camera looking up at the AV underside :)

The spent a little extra time with the AV (SOM Z71) than other auto's - it was nice to see CR doing a good pitch on the AV.

You home sick too huh I will see if I can find it I would like to see that when Andy Carson Oregon's 12 news was at the Portland Auto Show he was showing off the Mid-gate and stuff on the EXT
 
Did not catch the part on the early show about the AV, even though I usually watch it every morning, but I did read the article and I think that it is great that the AV is named best truck of the year by consumer reports (y), it would be the second time since it debuted that it has gotten recognition like this; first time was Motor Trend truck of the year for 2002.
