If it had a 6.2/8L90 power train. Other wise no.

What did you end up buying?
I was thinking about something the other day. The main thing that made an Av and Av was the midgate. In 2004, GMC also developed an Envoy XUV with the midgate, but this one had a power window inside.

I have seen lots of "renderings" of what a 2019/2020 Av would look like based on the new Suburban...or even a Silverado, both of which are made better, and have more power and bells and whistles. My question is...why doesn't someone just get a midgate from an Av, Caddy, or XUV and mod a new Suburban or Silverado to include it...then you get a modern vehicle with a midgate.
I don't think it would be that hard to do for someone with the right expertise and experience?
Does anyone else have any thoughts on this?

This is my 2nd. I've always wanted one and finally bought one last year. It was cheap and a real pile of crap but I fell in love with it. A buddy really wanted it so I sold it to him and bought an 80 C10. Drove that for awhile and then found my 2011 Avalanche. Everything I wanted. It's so nice. All I've done so far is stereo equipment. Love it.
