2011 Chevrolet Avalanche Reviews, Pricing & Specs
What owners say
"Overall, owners of the 2011 Chevrolet Avalanche generally appreciate its versatility, comfort, and towing capabilities. Many drivers love the spacious interior and smooth ride. However, some dislike the aging technology and the challenge of finding well-maintained models due to their age. Fuel economy could also be better, as some owners note the truck isn't the best in that department."
Has a major oil leak which is over value due to the engine rear main seal leaking
October 1, 2025I like the concept of a midgate, but unfortunately all of these are at least 10 years old or older. Hard to find one that lives up to expectations.
October 27, 2022Roomy cab that offers amenities, comfort, and room. The truck handles very well and has great suspension. The bed covers offer protection from the elements, security and best of all can be easily and quickly removed. The fold down back seats, and removable rear window result in a full size bed whenever needed- until then you have a full back seat with lots of room for three passengers! Engine power is adequate, but not excessive and is for anything a typical user would require to include towing. The vehicle gets somewhat better gas mileage than a full sized traditional truck and offers 4/8 cylinder idling when not under full loads. Four wheel drive control is automatic but can also be made to operate full time as desired. All in all we found the Avalanche to be perfect for our needs.

May 29, 2022Just a great comfortable vehicle!!! This is my third one. Wish they still made them.
October 16, 2022Best all around vehicle for towing, hauling family around a truck bed.
June 1, 2020Absolutely love my avalanche, I bought it last year and have put 25k Miles on it only money I have had to put into is one of the pulleys started squealing and some parts had to be replaced (500$) I’ve used mine for camping/road trips/ towing and it’s done a great job at all of them. If your towing consistently I wouldn’t recommend it Interior is roomy and comfortable ( dash has come apart like all Chevys of those years unfortunately) Last thing I’ll say is the mid gate is a really cool feature ( probably not one you will use often but it’s cool to show off :) DO NOT BUY AN AVALANCHE IF YOU WANT GOOD GAS MILEAGE LOL
