Looking to buy an Avalanche/EXT

I found a 2003 Avalanche 2500 in Tarzana, going to check it out after work today. Looks to be good, and I can't wait to drive an 8.1 (I have always wanted to since I was around 16).

Sorry for not keeping y'all updated. I have not found an Avalanche or an EXT. I'm still in the market but I ran into some issues with my internet at home (That's why I wasn't online here). I hope I can find one soon.
I doubt you want to drive to Michigan, But I saw a decent looking LTZ with a for sale sign in the windshield, near my house.. I didn't stop to get details.. Of course since it likely spent it's life in Michigan Rust is a major consideration.

nice looking truck!! did you paint all the yellow accents yourself? i really want to paint the front chrome on my first gen white, and paint the bowtie black. i would have never thought about yellow accents on a white truck with black trim, but i really like that!!

Thanks.. Yes, I had slowly collected a cabinet full of hi-temp, specialty and regular paints over the last few years.....and had to pull the valve covers to fix an intermittent collapsing lifter......it started by just cleaning everything but then I got a little carried away. Even did the whole underside of hood and firewall in flat black Raptor Liner

Saw a video where this dude had put a diesel in a black 07-13 Av, and he had rattle canned red accents in strategic spots around his truck and engine compartment. I'm not a huge fan of red but the hood latch and support bar looked awesome! So I borrowed his idea.

Used flat black wrinkle paint on the Bowtie(and valve covers) then gloss yellow (which is actually called golden sunset) and satin blue on the two tiered border around bowtie. The gold is near perfect match to the Velocity Yellow the CR8 Corvettes run. I used it on the calipers. Did tow hooks also. Put at least 5 coats of clear on them, thinking if I ever had to use them it would protect them; and less than a week later my buddy backed his 2500 Van into the black hole(culvert that's eating the road by the day) near the bottom of my driveway. Scratched the H out of one with a nylon tow strap....smh
