2020 Avalanche Update 

Ah good find! I have high hopes that my next truck won’t have any rust. Glad I’m not the only one who thinks so about versatility. It’s a shame they’ve been dropped

Yea I think that’s the route I want to go. Keeping my eyes peeled for a door the same color but they’re hard to come by here

You’re the first to say anything about noticing the avalanche in the intro! Hahaha that’s a bummer. I have a ton of things laying around I never got to doing. Hopefully that’ll change this year!

Ah that’s awesome to hear you like them! I’m diggin mine so far. I’m really hoping to fix the truck up this year! Thanks!

Didn’t pay too close attention to that when I was towing but I stayed around 60 and wasn’t pushing it. Did just fine

Unfortunately I’m not sure. Your best bet would probably be trying to find someone parting an avalanche out similar to yours or check your nearby salvage yards if online searches aren’t any help. Good luck!

That’s awesome what you have now has lasted so long! I need to not be lazy and go more south to pick trucks out now. Everything up here is too rusted out

Yea she is a 1998 gmc almost 263000 miles but because she is for North Carolina and I undercoat the hole truck every year she still looks ok the roof is faded and gas no clear coat that the southern heat and sun but from 50 feet she looks good but underneath she looks better then most newer truck and you can find some of these older ones down there in nice shape fairly cheap I have had her for almost 5 years now only paid 4000 when I got her which was 1500 less then book at the time

That’s great it worked well for you! I’ve heard a lot of people say it looks great at first but ends up tiger striping so I haven’t pulled the trigger on that one yet. You’ll have to comment back after a while to update how it’s holding up for you

@@jtmoffroad DONT TORCH IT. It will ruin the pores on the plastic and will turn it white. Your options are to use a restorer every couple weeks or sand them and bedline or paint them. - Fellow avalanche owner

Or a heat gun

I used a heat gun on my 2012 Avy and the plastic looks like new now. It took a bit of time, but I think the lower temp works better than torching it.
