Finally! I made the decision to go ahead and do it. We just bought a Black Z-71 with heated graphite leather, sunroof, convenience pkg, roof rack, running boards a 3.73 rear end (really wanted 4.10, but I checked in 5 states on buypower and there were none).
Thanks to the great people on this site I was able to go right in, knowing much more than the salesman, pick the one I liked, checked on all the little quirks I learned about here and with no hastle drove out with a new truck. Of course a GMS discount really helped alot. I feel like I got taken for a ride on my trade, but I weighed all my options :cautious:.
I can't thank you all enough for the help you've provided.
Yes, I already did my first mod. I turned the cup holder around backwards as suggested. I'll be saving up to paint most of the cladding.
Thanks again everyone! I'm already lovin' it! (y)
 
Great decision. It is hard to describe what you are feeling right now, but we all have been there.
 
Earthquake and Avalanche - sounds like a movie sequel - congrats on your purchase - drive it in good health - mods are waiting. ;D
 
I've had mine 6 days. We took it to get the front windows tinted today,bought a sunroof visor (put it on when we got home),and are waiting for the dealer to get the bug deflector we ordered with AVALANCHE on it to come in. Also ordered the lettering from Stripeman for the cladding and tailgate. I am glad I found this site. I've probably been on it for 3 or 4 weeks finding out what to look for and the right questions to ask when I was ready to buy. I can't tell you how MUCH I've learned from everyone on here. Thanks to everyone for all they've shared!
 
It is a beautiful thing.

I have had my AV since October and everyday that I go out and see it, it just makes me proud, and grateful. ;)

Enjoy!!! :B:
 
welcome to the board CountryBoy - glad you are enjoying the new truck - fun isn't it - mods are waiting. ;D
 
Congrats to all you new AV owners...

I can't stress enough to starting modding immediately! >:D
