I finally got my new avalanche.

Gosh... I want to add an 04 to my collection. :D ;)

I am going to trade my 02 in... but will probably wait for the 05.

CONGRATS bwarren. I'm anxious for the pics too!
 
Finally. What a neat truck. Picked up a Black 2004 Z71 with charcoal interior tonight. Really neat truck. I needed something good after my 1986 Silverado was stolen and completely stripped when I got it back.

This is a great site. I learned a lot from everyone here. Thanks!
 
I'm a proud 4 week Avalanche owner and got my new NJ title in the mail today.
Of course I have to check it over to make sure they got it right....

Year: 2003
So far so good....

Model: AVA
Nuthin' wrong yet.....

Body Type: Wagon :D:
Ouch :7:

I'm busy trying to help a serious mid-life crisis here by getting a big tough pickup truck and NJ tries to deflate my testosterone bubble by calling my AV a wagon like I drive a grocerymobile (no offense meant to those who haul groceries- don't tell anyone but I've loaded up a bag or two).

Just venting here. Guess I'll toss it in the safety deposit box and try to forget this sad incident until I sell it to some other poor sap who has to read wagon on the title.

Oh well, maybe I'll go buy a brush guard or intake kit to help overcome the blow. ;D
 
Yeah tell me about it when I was up visiting in Canada I pulled up with my family for dinner at a bed and brakefast and the guy says to me "ser could you please park your van over there" I am thinking wait a sec!!!! A van????? I could see him calling it a pickup or truck or suv but a VAN!!!!!
 
hey.. i don't know what ur complaining about.. mine not only says wagon but i'm only listed as *sniff* co-owner even tho those checks are made out from my account every month.. :6: 4 more long years!
 
A wagon?? A wagon!!?? What are they thinking? Take a trip down there and ask them to take a look out the window and tell you what they see.... or doesn't that work in NJ?

Dont feel so bad when I got mine they were so new, when I called Progressive to get it insured all they could pull up by the VIN was Tahoe Stationwagon, no Avalanche nothing! :6:

Heck I have had mine 2 1/2 years and still have about 4 more years to pay, have refinanced it three times, twice before I made my first payment.
 
Hey - If the Av gets classified as a wagon, does that mean a break on insurance costs?
Got to look at the positive side, any little bit helps.
 
congrats............my late father worked in the Framingham Ma plant for 35 years, his discounts have got me many nice chevys over the years,.............thanks dad i love you....
 
Skidd,
In the light of day I’ve come to realize that sticks and stones won’t break my bones – even though I thought they were actually trying to break my stones- or something like that

I’ve also realized that in the end I win. I don’t think I can head down there and show them my Av out the window because it’s not bloody likely that the poor chump who has to process titles all day has a window granted to him by the benevolent state of New Jersey.
So here’s the score-
Me: driving around enjoying a nice day in a brand new Avy.
Misguided title dude: stuck in likely dank windowless cell pushing papers.

A rose by any other name....

But -I'm still gonna buy the new brush guard...
 
LOL.. yep, you have definately won the better deal.

I wondered if there was a person you could approach because I once cut the roof off a 1969 Dodge Phoenix LE400 and so had to have the description on the title changed from 'Sedan' to 'Convertible'.

I drove down to the RTA (our version of DMV) and when I got to the front of the queue I asked the bloke at the counter what type of body style it was registered with... he checks his computer, "A sedan" he announces. So I say "Well look out the window there and tell me if that looks like a sedan to you?". LOL he agreed and changed it there and then! It should have cost me $1200.00 for an engineers report and official inspections, but this bloke just looked out the window and said, "Don't know how they got that wrong".

Sometimes you just gotta try a little bit of bluff. ;)
