When the Avalanche came out in 2001 a base model 1500 series Avalanche 4X2 had a base sticker price of about $31K.? Loaded out at the top end, a North Face 1500 Avalanche with all options came in at just under $40K sticker.
The new 2007 GMT900 Avalanche hasn't had official pricing released, but one can crank a 2007 Tahoe up to almost$58K $54K, and that is before adding goodies like the 6.0L V-8 (coming).? So the sticker price for a loaded Avalanche (1500 series North Face all options versus a Z71 LTZ) has probably swelled by about $20K $16K in about five years (from April of 2001 to April of 2006).
Now admittedly the 2002 Avalanche didn't have DVD navigation, Stabilitrak, heated windshield wiper fluid, DVD theater, Bose audio, back up camera system with parking assist, rear heated seats, and other goodies, and lets face it DVD in vehicle theater, navigation, the Bose system and backup cameras cost plenty of bucks.? No doubt about it - so, what do you think?? Worth it or not?
