When the Chevrolet Avalanche first debuted, we were instant fans of the folding midgate coupled with up to six-passenger seating, though the style was a few plastic pillars beyond appealing, and the interior was riddled with typical GM buttons and cheap plastic from hell. The 2007 model addresses most of those concerns, with an upgraded interior that’s a huge improvement, exterior styling that is gorgeous despite those triangular rear pillars, and a couple of potent engines. Plus, there’s GM’s promise of better build quality, though the examples we’ve seen thus far still have some hill to climb. Even so, the 2007 Chevy Avalanche looks to be a step above its predecessor in every regard.
