Hey Everybody,

Just wanted to say hi and introduce myself. I'm Wade, my wife's name is Debbie and we just bought our first Avalanche and joined the Fan Club. We live in the Seattle area and are really excited about our new truck and are ready to get out and about with it.

We bought an '05 2500 w/ the 8.1 Liter big block, victory red and fully loaded. We really wanted a new one, but a 3/4 ton was a must and unfortunately the '06 was the last year for them and there were no new '06s within 500 miles :rolleyes:. The one we got is pretty low miles though - 22,000 and in great condition.

I'll be poking around this site looking for good information, but if anyone has any pointers to important, can't miss items, by all means, point away!
 
Welcome to the club!

I respect the Master Chief avatar too.

Welcome to the club wwickman and Congratulation!

Happy AV'n,

Congrats on the AV, you will love it! Suggestions: Ambers, look through the threads on many ideas for mods and check out the National GTG in South Dakota in July, there will plenty there to expose you to the wonderful world of modding!
:welcome: wwickman
and to the Mrs. too!
 
Thanks everybody for the warm welcomes!

We just brought the truck home yesterday so have done no mods yet, but we did order a snug-top. Should be here in a few weeks :D
 
:welcome: Glad you got the Victory red,  >:D And you got the 2500 to boot  :cool:

welcome to the club wwickman
did you put ambers in yet?

Just put the ambers in this morning. I put in the Sylvania Silver Stars - they look great.

Even though this was a simple mod; that combined w/ reading about all the things others are doing gave me the mod fever. It's all over now.

So many mods... So little time... :D
 
:welcome: to the club. Congrats on your new Avalanche and your first mod.

where did you see it at? I live in Elk Run

I thought I'd reply to your question here so as not to hijack the other thread :)

We saw it near the intersection of Whitte and 169 at approx. 6:45 PM on Tues.

We live in Cherokee Bay right next to the club house on Pipe Lake.

I think I'll do the All 4 on Hi this weekend :D
