I factory ordered mine in April 2001, took delivery in June and some were sold as early as February or March. Ironic the step and storage boxes are new features on some trucks after Avalanche production has ceased.
Motor Trend's 2000 review stated, "The Avalanche looks likely to draw some blood in its assault on pickup and sport/utility orthodoxy. This is a new kind of vehicle, and it may change some thinking in the marketplace. If it does, it may also change some other truckmaker's product plans."
